4709160 [Qt] fix a translation that occurs 2 times but was a little different (Philip Kaufmann)
50db7d9 [Qt] change some strings to reflect name change to Bitcoin Core (Philip Kaufmann)
2747f7c [Qt] fix missing plural form for a string in sendcoinsdialog (Philip Kaufmann)
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.
- also fixes indentation in one file (auto fixed by Qt Designer)
- removes several default parameters, which are not needed in the files
- related to #4840 (but not intended as fix for a no-bug)
- 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.
Only messages for now, executable names and other file names
can be changed later if necessary and safe.
Do not do an all-sweeping change. Some occurences of Bitcoin-Qt need to
be kept:
- Applicationname: this is used to determine the registry entry names,
we don't want to lose settings over a silly name change.
- Where it refers to the executable name instead of the product name.
- 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
- this helps user to not think our Client is called "Bitcoin Wallet"
- change "About Bitcoin-Qt" to "About Bitcoin"
- change "Bitcoin debug window" to "Bitcoin - Debug window"
- change "Client" in debug Window to "Bitcoin Core"
* This allows copy/pasting whole or partial messages
* Handle output more consistently in console
* No more scrollbars-in-scrollbars: by setting per-pixel scrolling on the table, cells can have any height
* Decorations for "request" and "reply" are changed to the txin and txout icons instead of colored squares
