189c987386Showing local addresses on the Node Window (Jadi)a5d7aff867net: Providing an interface for mapLocalHost (Jadi) Pull request description: This change adds a new row to the Node Window (debugwindow.ui) under the Network section which shows the LocalAddresses. fixes #564 <!-- *** Please remove the following help text before submitting: *** Pull requests without a rationale and clear improvement may be closed immediately. GUI-related pull requests should be opened against https://github.com/bitcoin-core/gui first. See CONTRIBUTING.md --> <!-- Please provide clear motivation for your patch and explain how it improves Bitcoin Core user experience or Bitcoin Core developer experience significantly: * Any test improvements or new tests that improve coverage are always welcome. * All other changes should have accompanying unit tests (see `src/test/`) or functional tests (see `test/`). Contributors should note which tests cover modified code. If no tests exist for a region of modified code, new tests should accompany the change. * Bug fixes are most welcome when they come with steps to reproduce or an explanation of the potential issue as well as reasoning for the way the bug was fixed. * Features are welcome, but might be rejected due to design or scope issues. If a feature is based on a lot of dependencies, contributors should first consider building the system outside of Bitcoin Core, if possible. * Refactoring changes are only accepted if they are required for a feature or bug fix or otherwise improve developer experience significantly. For example, most "code style" refactoring changes require a thorough explanation why they are useful, what downsides they have and why they *significantly* improve developer experience or avoid serious programming bugs. Note that code style is often a subjective matter. Unless they are explicitly mentioned to be preferred in the [developer notes](/doc/developer-notes.md), stylistic code changes are usually rejected. --> <!-- Bitcoin Core has a thorough review process and even the most trivial change needs to pass a lot of eyes and requires non-zero or even substantial time effort to review. There is a huge lack of active reviewers on the project, so patches often sit for a long time. --> ACKs for top commit: pablomartin4btc: re-ACK189c987386furszy: utACK189c987Tree-SHA512: 93f201bc6d21d81b27b87be050a447b841f01e3efb69b9eca2cc7af103023d7cd69eb5e16e2875855573ef51a5bf74a6ee6028636c1b6798cb4bb11567cb4996
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.
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.
