Replace the sign, finalize , bip32derivs and sighash_type arguments which are passed to FillPSBT() and SignPSBTInput() with a PSBTFillOptions struct. This makes it easier to add additional options later without large code churn, such as avoid_script_path proposed in #32857. It also makes the use of default boolean options safer compared to positional arguments that can easily get mixed up.
Internal c++ interfaces
The following interfaces are defined here:
-
Chain— used by wallet to access blockchain and mempool state. Added in #14437, #14711, #15288, and #10973. -
ChainClient— used by node to start & stopChainclients. Added in #14437. -
Node— used by GUI to start & stop bitcoin node. Added in #10244. -
Handler— returned byhandleEventmethods on interfaces above and used to manage lifetimes of event handlers. -
Init— used by multiprocess code to access interfaces above on startup. Added in #19160. -
Ipc— used by multiprocess code to accessInitinterface across processes. Added in #19160. -
Rpc— used bybitcoin-clito be able to call RPC methods over a unix socket instead of TCP.
The interfaces above define boundaries between major components of bitcoin code (node, wallet, and gui), making it possible for them to run in different processes, and be tested, developed, and understood independently. These interfaces are not currently designed to be stable or to be used externally.
