This RPC is only used for + testing, but its implementation reached across multiple subsystems + (wallet and mining), so it has been removed to simplify the + wallet-node interface. Projects that are using `generate` for testing + purposes should transition to using the `generatetoaddress` RPC, which + does not require or use the wallet component. Calling + `generatetoaddress` with an address returned by the `getnewaddress` + RPC gives the same functionality as the old `generate` RPC. |
