- it now takes over the passed file descriptor and closes it in the
destructor
- this fixes a leak in LoadExternalBlockFile(), where an exception could
cause the file to not getting closed
- disallow copies (like recently added for CAutoFile)
- make nType and nVersion private
Windows needed a few fixups to get the tests running:
1. bitcoin-tx needs a file extension in Windows. Take this opportunity to
add an env file, which pulls variables out of our build config. This can
be extended as needed, for now it's very simple.
2. After #1, split the args out of the exec key in the test data.
3. Correct the line-endings from windows stdout
One might assume that CAutoFile would be ref-counted so that a copied object
would delay closing the underlying file until all copies have gone out of
scope. Since that's not the case with CAutoFile, explicitly disable copying.
- explicit init of pcoinsdbview and pwalletMain (even if not needed, as
globals are init to NULL, it seems cleaner)
- remove check if (pwalletMain) in Shutdown() as delete is valid even if
pwalletMain is NULL
Move the txid duplicates check into BuildMerkleTree, where it can be done
much more efficiently (without needing to build a full txid set to detect
duplicates).
The previous version (using the std::set<uint256> to detect duplicates) was
also slightly too weak. A block mined with actual duplicate transactions
(which is invalid, due to the inputs of the duplicated transactions being
seen as double spends) would trigger the duplicates logic, resulting in the
block not being stored on disk, and rerequested. This change fixes that by
only triggering in the case of duplicated transactions that can actually
result in an identical merkle root.
It's strange to be able to close these windows while there is work
in progress.
Also set Qt::WA_DeleteOnClose on both windows to make sure that they
are deleted eventually, no matter what happens.
Lots of people read the Bitcoin Core codebase to learn more about
crypto; better to warn about flaws explicitly so they don't blindly copy
the code for other uses and create broken systems.
