Updated the "localeLang" files with new keys and removed old unused keys for English, German, Dutch, Italian, Finnish, Hungarian, Russian and Chinese translations
The "dust" threshold is around 1 DOGE - meaning orders below this size cannot be refunded or redeemed. The simplest solution is to prevent orders of this size being placed to begin with.
Rename to zh_SC for better distinguish between zh_SC (Simple Chinese)and zh_TC(Traditional Chinese)
Rephrase some of the words for better understanding.
Checkpointing interval is 1 hour by default, changable in settings via
"repositoryCheckpointInterval"
plus corresponding "showCheckpointNotifications" SysTray flags (off by default).
Added entries to SysTray_en i18n properties, and converted SysTray_ru to ISO-8559-1.
Added a setting "showBackupNotification", which is false by default,
that shows a tray notification when a repository backup occurs.
Above notification, and the auto-update notification, now refer to
the SysTray i18n translation lookup resources.
Added API call GET /admin/status which reports whether minting
is possible (have minting keys & up-to-date) and whether node is
currently attempting to sync.
Corresponding change to system tray mouseover text.
Corresponding text added to SysTray transaction resources.
No more "node UI". UI provided by 3rd party.
"Open UI" tray icon menu item now attempts to open UI at various
local servers (see Settings.uilocalServers) or some random
remote server (Settings.uiRemoteServers).
Default UI port now 12388 (Settings.uiPort).
Translator class no longer logs warnings for every failed translation.
Commented out unused ApiError enum entries.
Renamed some ApiError names like "_NO_EXISTS" to "_UNKNOWN".
Removed old src/main/resources/globalization/* files.
Added CheckTranslations test app.
Fixed some extraneous/missing ApiError aspects in some API-related classes.
e.g. added NAME_UNKNOWN to GET /names/{name}
Unified terminology from block "generator", "forger", etc. to "minter"
Unified terminology "proxy forger" to "reward share" as it was
incorrect, or at least highly ambiguous, which account had which role.
AccountRepository.findRewardShares() has different arg order!
Account.canMint() now returns true if account has 'founder' flag set.
Added Account.canRewardShare() which returns whether acocunt can create
a reward-share (e.g. level 5+ or founder).
Fixed HSQLDBAssetRepository.getAllAssets() which had incorrect
resultSet column indexes.
Removed old traces of EnableForging transaction.
ACCOUNT_LEVEL and ACCOUNT_FLAGS (genesis-block-only transaction types)
now set target account's last-reference. This is allow later REWARD_SHARE
transactions in genesis block and post-genesis transactions by that account.
REWARD_SHARE transactions are now FREE, but only if minter is also recipient.
If a self-reward-share already exists, then unless share-percent is zero (to
terminate reward-share), any subsequent self-reward-share is invalid.
Updated SysTray i18n properties file.
BlockChain config file requires 'minAccountLevelToRewardShare' and optional
'minAccountLevelToMint'.
Added potential, but currently unused, memory-hard PoW algorithm.
Fixed/removed/disabled some unit tests.
BlockMinter.generateTestingBlock asks Controller to pretend mintingAccount is 'online'.
More testing needed!
New NTP class now runs as a simplistic NTP client, repeatedly polling
several NTP servers and maintaining a more accurate time independent
of operating system.
Several occurrences of System.currentTimeMillis() replaced with NTP.getTime()
particularly where block/transaction/networking is involved.
GET /admin/info now includes "currentTimestamp" as reported from NTP.
Added support for block timestamps determined by generator, instead of
supplied by clock. (BlockChain.newBlockTimestampHeight - not yet activated).
Incorrect timestamps will produce a TIMESTAMP_INCORRECT Block.ValidationResult.
Block.calcMinimumTimestamp repurposed as Block.calcTimestamp for above.
Block timestamps are now allowed to be max 2000ms in the future,
was previously max 500ms.
Block generation prohibited until initial NTP sync.
Instead of deleting INVALID unconfirmed transactions in BlockGenerator,
Controller now deletes EXPIRED unconfirmed transactions every so often.
This also fixes persistent expired unconfirmed transactions on nodes
that do not generate blocks, as BlockGenerator.deleteInvalidTransactions()
was never reached.
Abbreviated block sigs added to log entries declaring a new block is generated
in BlockGenerator.
Controller checks for NTP sync much faster during start-up and SysTray's
tooltip text starts as "Synchronizing clock" until NTP sync occurs.
After NTP sync, Controller logs NTP offset every so often (currently every 5 mins).
When considering synchronizing, Controller skips peers that have the same block sig
as last time when synchronization resulted in no action, e.g. INFERIOR_CHAIN,
NOTHING_TO_DO and also OK. OK is included as another sync attempt would result in
NOTHING_TO_DO.
Previously this skipping check only happened after prior INFERIOR_CHAIN.
During inbound peer handshaking, if we receive a peer ID that matches an existing inbound
peer then send peer ID of all zeros, then close connection.
Remote end should detect this and cleanly close connection instead of waiting for handshake timeout.
Randomly generated peer IDs have lowest bit set to avoid all zeros.
Might need further work.
Networking doesn't connect, or accept, until NTP has synced.
Transaction validation can fail with CLOCK_NOT_SYNCED if NTP not synced.
Controller performs NTP check on startup (and every 5 minutes)
which determines whether block generation is allowed.
System Tray tooltip updated to reflect generating status.
Plus new translations.
Improved GuiTests.
BlockGenerator fetches forging accounts first, and sleeps
if none configured, which is less work than processing peer lists.
Now uses several NTP servers to determine mean offset from
system clock to internet time.
If abs(offset) > 500ms or NTP service not running then
user is 'nagged' via system tray pop-up notification
with instructions on how to fix.
Also improved system tray translations!
SysTray pop-up menu now includes entry for launching https://time.is
so node owners can check their system clocks against internet time.
Windows installs also have additional systray menu entry which
runs ntpcfg.bat script, included in resources.
Also available as download via node-UI servlet,
e.g. http://localhost:9880/downloads/ntpcfg.bat
ntpcfg.bat reconfigures Windows Time Service with many NTP servers,
restarts the service, and also makes sure it auto-starts on boot.
Added DEBUG-level logging when rejecting nodes due to excessive
time difference (during PROOF handshake stage).
Bumped default settings values for minOutboundPeers from 10 to 20.
Bumped default settings values for maxPeers from 30 to 50.
