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.
- fix crash with walletpassphrase by checking if RPC server is running and
give a friendly error message how to fix this (fixes#3100)
- add 3 new RPCErrorCodes RPC_SERVER_NOT_STARTED, RPC_NODE_ALREADY_ADDED
and RCP_NODE_NOT_ADDED (I checked the source to not use a number already
in use for RPC_SERVER_NOT_STARTED)
- use the new codes where needed / missing
- add missing use of RPC_INVALID_PARAMETER
The existing CNode::addrLocal member is revealed to the user,
as an address string, similar to the existing "addr" field.
Instead of showing garbage or empty string,
it simply will not appear in the output if local address not known yet.
New RPC "ping" command to request ping.
Implemented "pong" message handler.
New "pingtime" field in getpeerinfo, to provide results to user.
New "pingwait" field, to show pings still in flight, to better see newly lagging peers.
The new class is accessed via the Params() method and holds
most things that vary between main, test and regtest networks.
The regtest mode has two purposes, one is to run the
bitcoind/bitcoinj comparison tool which compares two separate
implementations of the Bitcoin protocol looking for divergence.
The other is that when run, you get a local node which can mine
a single block instantly, which is highly convenient for testing
apps during development as there's no need to wait 10 minutes for
a block on the testnet.
It seems there were two mechanisms for assessing whether a CNode
was still in use: a refcount and a release timestamp. The latter
seems to have been there for a long time, as a safety mechanism.
However, this timer also keeps CNode objects alive for far longer
than necessary after disconnects, potentially opening up a DoS
window.
This commit removes the timestamp-based mechanism, and replaces
it with an assert(nRefCount >= 0), to verify that the refcounting
is indeed correctly working.
