RPC importprivkey: new label behavior
|
||
|
-------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
Previously, `importprivkey` automatically added the default empty label
|
||
|
("") to all addresses associated with the imported private key. Now it
|
||
|
defaults to using any existing label for those addresses. For example:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Old behavior: you import a watch-only address with the label "cold
|
||
|
wallet". Later, you import the corresponding private key using the
|
||
|
default settings. The address's label is changed from "cold wallet"
|
||
|
to "".
|
||
|
|
||
|
- New behavior: you import a watch-only address with the label "cold
|
||
|
wallet". Later, you import the corresponding private key using the
|
||
|
default settings. The address's label remains "cold wallet".
|
||
|
|
||
|
In both the previous and current case, if you directly specify a label
|
||
|
during the import, that label will override whatever previous label the
|
||
|
addresses may have had. Also in both cases, if none of the addresses
|
||
|
previously had a label, they will still receive the default empty label
|
||
|
(""). Examples:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- You import a watch-only address with the label "temporary". Later you
|
||
|
import the corresponding private key with the label "final". The
|
||
|
address's label will be changed to "final".
|
||
|
|
||
|
- You use the default settings to import a private key for an address that
|
||
|
was not previously in the wallet. Its addresses will receive the default
|
||
|
empty label ("").
