2017-08-22Merge #11050: Avoid treating null RPC arguments different from missing argumentsWladimir J. van der Laan
745d2e3 Clean up getbalance RPC parameter handling (Russell Yanofsky) fd5d71e Update developer notes after params.size() cleanup (Russell Yanofsky) e067673 Avoid treating null RPC arguments different from missing arguments (Russell Yanofsky) e666efc Get rid of redundant RPC params.size() checks (Russell Yanofsky) Pull request description: This is a followup to #10783. - The first commit doesn't change behavior at all, just simplifies code. - The second commit just changes RPC methods to treat null arguments the same as missing arguments instead of throwing type errors. - The third commit updates developer notes after the cleanup. - The forth commit does some additional code cleanup in `getbalance`. Followup changes that should happen in future PRs: - [ ] Replace uses of `.isTrue()` with calls to `.get_bool()` so numbers, objects, and strings cause type errors instead of being interpreted as false. https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11050#discussion_r133850525 - [ ] Add braces around if statements. https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11050#discussion_r133851133 - [ ] Maybe improve UniValue type error exceptions and eliminate RPCTypeCheck and RPCTypeCheckArgument functions. https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11050#discussion_r133829303 Tree-SHA512: e72f696011d20acc0778e996659e41f9426bffce387b29ff63bf59ad1163d5146761e4445b2b9b9e069a80596a57c7f4402b75a15d5d20f69f775ae558cf67e9

2016-06-08util: Add ParseUInt32 and ParseUInt64Wladimir J. van der Laan
Add error and range-checking parsers for unsigned 32 and 64 bit numbers. The 32-bit variant is required for parsing sequence numbers from the command line in `bitcoin-tx` (see #8164 for discussion). I've thrown in the 64-bit variant as a bonus, as I'm sure it will be needed at some point. Also adds tests, and updates `developer-notes.md`.
