A variant of WaitingDialog that runs the task in the GUI thread,
blocking the GUI. It is probably a code smell to actually use this,
as operations should not block the GUI... still it provides a middle-ground
between blocking the GUI without giving user-feedback and having to refactor
existing code (to avoid blocking).
Note: the checksum was already being checked in practically all cases, by the caller.
Moved the check here, to the lower level (but still public) method for sanity.
For example, for 50 KB of random data, and base 43,
previously,
- base_encode took ~38 seconds
- base_decode took ~270 seconds
now,
- base_encode takes ~7.5 seconds
- base_decode takes ~6 seconds
note: tests needed changing due to behavioural change in wallet.get_receiving_address()
Previously wallet.get_receiving_address used wallet.db.get_addr_history,
now it (indirectly) uses wallet.get_address_history, which now also considers local txns.
not sure what it is supposed to catch...
The examples I could come up with would all be actual bugs;
in which case we should let the exception propagate out to the crash reporter.
Scenario: select some UTXOs in the 'Coins' tab. Create a tx and sign it.
Close the tx dialog without broadcasting/etc (cancel tx).
Signatures would remain for selected UTXOs.
Create new tx -> invalid sigs.
note: low R grinding would not have to be duplicated if we trusted the caller
to have done it already (as is the case with the classes in ecc.py), and if
we propagated the choice of "random_k" as part of the nonce_function passed
to libsecp256k1 (which is not currently done)
This was done to calculate the bip32 root fingerprint but it broke
the digitalbitbox. The keystore already had a different way to get
the root fingerprint for existing wallets, specifically handling this
case; the code in base_wizard used when creating new wallets was
duplicating that code originally and was then forgotten to be updated.
Now these codepaths are unified.
closes#5816
- no more passing around "invoice" in GUIs, invoice "paid" detection is now handled by wallet logic
- a tx can now pay for multiple invoices
- an invoice can now be paid by multiple txs (through partial payments)
- new data structure in storage: prevouts_by_scripthash
- type: scripthash -> set of (outpoint, value)
- also, storage upgrade to build this for existing wallets
