2016-01-05Bump copyright headers to 2015MarcoFalke
- Bump copyright headers to 2015 - [devtools] Rewrite fix-copyright-headers.py - [devtools] Use git pretty-format for year parsing Github-Pull: #7205 Rebased-From: fa6ad855e9159b2247da4fa0054f32fa181499ab fa24439ff3d8ab5b9efaf66ef4dae6713b88cb35 fa71669452e57039e4270fd2b33a0e0e1635b813
2015-09-03evhttpd implementationWladimir J. van der Laan
- *Replace usage of boost::asio with [libevent2](http://libevent.org/)*. boost::asio is not part of C++11, so unlike other boost there is no forwards-compatibility reason to stick with it. Together with #4738 (convert json_spirit to UniValue), this rids Bitcoin Core of the worst offenders with regard to compile-time slowness. - *Replace spit-and-duct-tape http server with evhttp*. Front-end http handling is handled by libevent, a work queue (with configurable depth and parallelism) is used to handle application requests. - *Wrap HTTP request in C++ class*; this makes the application code mostly HTTP-server-neutral - *Refactor RPC to move all http-specific code to a separate file*. Theoreticaly this can allow building without HTTP server but with another RPC backend, e.g. Qt's debug console (currently not implemented) or future RPC mechanisms people may want to use. - *HTTP dispatch mechanism*; services (e.g., RPC, REST) register which URL paths they want to handle. By using a proven, high-performance asynchronous networking library (also used by Tor) and HTTP server, problems such as #5674, #5655, #344 should be avoided. What works? bitcoind, bitcoin-cli, bitcoin-qt. Unit tests and RPC/REST tests pass. The aim for now is everything but SSL support. Configuration options: - `-rpcthreads`: repurposed as "number of work handler threads". Still defaults to 4. - `-rpcworkqueue`: maximum depth of work queue. When this is reached, new requests will return a 500 Internal Error. - `-rpctimeout`: inactivity time, in seconds, after which to disconnect a client. - `-debug=http`: low-level http activity logging
2015-07-13rpc: Implement random-cookie based authenticationWladimir J. van der Laan
When no `-rpcpassword` is specified, use a special 'cookie' file for authentication. This file is generated with random content when the daemon starts, and deleted when it exits. Read access to this file controls who can access through RPC. By default this file is stored in the data directory but it be overriden with `-rpccookiefile`. This is similar to Tor CookieAuthentication: see https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual.html.en Alternative to #6258. Like that pull, this allows running bitcoind without any manual configuration. However, daemons should ideally never write to their configuration files, so I prefer this solution.
2015-06-21build: Remove -DBOOST_SPIRIT_THREADSAFEWladimir J. van der Laan
Now that boost spirit is no longer used, `-DBOOST_SPIRIT_THREADSAFE` doesn't need to be passed to the compiler anymore.

- implement find_value() function for UniValue - replace all Array/Value/Object types with UniValues, remove JSON Spirit to UniValue wrapper - remove JSON Spirit sources

2015-01-02namespace: drop most boost namespaces and a few header cleanupsCory Fields
A few boost::asio were left around because they're very wordy otherwise.

2014-09-14header include cleanupPhilip Kaufmann
- ensures alphabetical ordering for includes etc. in source file headers
2014-08-26Split up util.cpp/hWladimir J. van der Laan
Split up util.cpp/h into: - string utilities (hex, base32, base64): no internal dependencies, no dependency on boost (apart from foreach) - money utilities (parsesmoney, formatmoney) - time utilities (gettime*, sleep, format date): - and the rest (logging, argument parsing, config file parsing) The latter is basically the environment and OS handling, and is stripped of all utility functions, so we may want to rename it to something else than util.cpp/h for clarity (Matt suggested osinterface). Breaks dependency of sha256.cpp on all the things pulled in by util.
2014-08-26Move `*Version()` functions to version.h/cppWladimir J. van der Laan
2014-08-06Remove size limit in RPC client, keep it in serverWladimir J. van der Laan
The size limit makes a lot of sense for the server, as it never has to accept very large data. The client, however, can request arbitrary amounts of data with `listtransactions` on a large wallet. Fixes #4604.
2014-08-06Avoid a copy in RPC outputWladimir J. van der Laan
Split up HTTPReply into HTTPReply and HTTPReplyHeader, so that the message data can be streamed directly. Also removes a c_str(), which would have prevented binary output with NUL characters in it.
2014-07-04rpc: Prevent easy memory exhaustion attackWladimir J. van der Laan
Allocate memory for POST message data only as bytes come in, instead of all at once at the beginning. Fixes #4343.
2014-06-28fix RPC error replieskazcw
After pull #4288, RPC messages indicating errors have a Content-Length unrelated to their actual contents, rendering bitcoin-cli and curl unable to decode the reply. This patch sets the Content-Length field based on the actual content returned. Additionally, pull #4288 clobbered the error descriptions provided in ErrorReply, which bitcoin-cli relies upon; this patch moves #4288 http-error descriptions to an HTTPError method, allowing HTTPReply to pass content on unchanged.
2014-06-27Move AcceptedConnection class to rpcserver.h.Jeff Garzik
Also, add parens to HTTPReply() to assist readability.
2014-06-26RPC cleanup: Improve HTTP server repliesJeff Garzik
1) support varying content types 2) support only sending the header 3) properly deliver error message as content, if HTTP error 4) move AcceptedConnection class to header, for wider use
2014-05-23Replace non-threadsafe gmtime and setlocaleWladimir J. van der Laan
Make DateTimeStrFormat use boost::posix_time. Also re-enable the util_DateTimeStrFormat tests, as they are no longer platform specific.
2014-05-06Remove dummy PRIszX macros for formattingWladimir J. van der Laan
Size specifiers are no longer needed now that we use typesafe tinyformat for string formatting, instead of the system's sprintf. No functional changes. This continues the work in #3735.

2014-03-07Remove unused includes of boost lexical_castWladimir J. van der Laan
We don't use lexical_cast anywhere, no need to include it.
2014-02-09Copyright header updates s/2013/2014 on files whose last git commit was done ↵gubatron
in 2014. contrib/devtools/fix-copyright-headers.py script to be able to perform this maintenance task with ease during the rest of the year, every year. Modifications to contrib/devtools/README.md to document what fix-copyright-headers.py does.
2014-01-23Remove redundant .c_str()sWladimir J. van der Laan
After the tinyformat switch sprintf() family functions support passing actual std::string objects. Remove unnecessary c_str calls (236 of them) in logging and formatting.
2013-11-27Split up bitcoinrpc (code movement only)Wladimir J. van der Laan
Split bitcoinrpc up into - rpcserver: bitcoind RPC server - rpcclient: bitcoin-cli RPC client - rpcprotocol: shared common HTTP/JSON-RPC protocol code One step towards making bitcoin-cli independent from the rest of the code, and thus a smaller executable that doesn't have to be linked against leveldb. This commit only does code movement, there are no functional changes.
