- Made masternodes/darksend compatible with regression testing mode (a local-only blockchain that doesn't require mining). Developers can now test multiple rounds in a few minutes without waiting on mining (much faster).
- Added dsee security verification to v11
- darkSendMasternodes -> vecMasternodes (must clearer)
Many changes:
* Do not use 'getblocks', but 'getheaders', and use it to build a headers tree.
* Blocks are fetched in parallel from all available outbound peers, using a
limited moving window. When one peer stalls the movement of the window, it is
disconnected.
* No more orphan blocks. At all. We only ever request a block for which we have
verified the headers, and store it to disk immediately. This means that a
disk-fill attack would require PoW.
* Require protocol version 31800 for every peer (released in december 2010).
* No more syncnode (we sync from everyone we can, though limited to 1 during
initial *headers* sync).
* Introduce some extra named constants, comments and asserts.
- remove starting height as table header and replace with ping time
- remove columnResizingFixer
- add local address (if available) in detailed node view (on top of the
right view below the remote address)
- remove some .c_str() by using QString::fromStdString()
- rename Address to Address/Hostname
- rename secs to just s for ping time
- use MODEL_UPDATE_DELAY from guiconstants.h for the peer refresh time
- make PeerTableModel::columnCount() return no hard-coded value
- remove and cleanup dup private: section in RPCConsole header
- add new defaults for column sizes
- remove behaviour which keeps disconnected peers selected and also remove
code which keeps track of last selected peer stats
- add sync height to detail view
- add some additional NULL pointer checks for clientModel in
rpcconsole.cpp
Generally useless information. Only updates on connect time, not after
that. Peers can easily lie and the median filter is not effective in
preventing that.
In the past it was used for progress display in the GUI but
`CheckPoints::guessVerificationProgress` provides a better way that is now used.
It was too easy to mislead it. Peers do lie about it in practice, see issue #4065.
From the RPC, `getpeerinfo` gives the peer raw values, which are more
useful.

contrib/devtools/fix-copyright-headers.py script to be able to perform this maintenance task with ease during the rest of the year, every year. Modifications to contrib/devtools/README.md to document what fix-copyright-headers.py does.
- adds a nice and well formated dialog, which displays our -? help message
(all options/paramaters)
- moves aboutdialog.cpp/h to the new utilitydialog
- move GUI shutdown window to utilitydialog
Split bitcoinrpc up into
- rpcserver: bitcoind RPC server
- rpcclient: bitcoin-cli RPC client
- rpcprotocol: shared common HTTP/JSON-RPC protocol code
One step towards making bitcoin-cli independent from the rest
of the code, and thus a smaller executable that doesn't have to
be linked against leveldb.
This commit only does code movement, there are no functional changes.
Use misc methods of avoiding unnecesary header includes.
Replace int typedefs with int##_t from stdint.h.
Replace PRI64[xdu] with PRI[xdu]64 from inttypes.h.
Normalize QT_VERSION ifs where possible.
Resolve some indirect dependencies as direct ones.
Remove extern declarations from .cpp files.
- rework window title to not include Bitcoin - in front, as no other
dialog does this
- favor a connect() call over an own function for clearing the traffic
graph
- write monospace lowercase (seems to be correct after some web search)
and add a comment that we should avoid / remove fixed font sizes
- move the code for saving and restoring window positions from BitcoinGUI
to GUIUtil, make it more generic and also use it for saving/restoring
debug window positions
- harmonize BitcoinGUI::setClientModel() and RPCConsole::setClientModel()
- now RPCConsole::setClientModel() also includes a direct call to
setNumBlocks()
This commit squashes all the changes in the Qt5 branch
relative to master.
Backward compatibility with Qt4 is retained.
