At present it contains the WalletView instances for the wallets and does little more than passing on messages +from BitcoinGUI to the currently selected WalletView. It is a WalletFrame instance that takes the place of what used to be centralWidget in BitcoinGUI. The purpose of this class is to allow future refinements of the wallet controls with minimal need for further modifications to BitcoinGUI, thus greatly simplifying merges while reducing the risk of breaking top-level stuff. |
