Re: [Bitcoin-development] [RFC] [BIP proposal] Dealing with malleability

2014-02-12 Thread Rune Kjær Svendsen
Instead of trying to remove the possibility of transaction malleability, would it make sense to define a new, "canonical transaction hash/ID" (cTxID), which would be a hash of the part of the transaction data which we know is not malleable, and have clients use this cTxID internally, thus making th

Re: [Bitcoin-development] HTTP REST API for bitcoind

2013-08-10 Thread Rune Kjær Svendsen
I think this is a useful feature, but I din't see why it should be a part of bitcoind. I've created a simple HTTP REST wrapper around bitcoind's RPC interface in Python: https://github.com/runeksvendsen/btchttp/blob/master/btchttp.py It simply runs a HTTP server that translates HTTP GET requests i

Thanks for the input all! You make a lot of sense :). I will go with the Unix socket method, I think. It's about time I learn about those. /Rune On Sat, Jun 1, 2013 at 1:47 AM, Chris Double wrote: > On Sat, Jun 1, 2013 at 11:29 AM, Wladimir wrote: > > Using zmq is a great fit for high-speed no

Ok. I'll fork on Github. Looking at the source, and some Qt documentation, it should be doable to do string substitution for both the value and the unit. The question is if we should define a new value, that we use solely to display in this text, or if we should use MIN_TX_FEE or MIN_RELAY_TX_FEE
