1 2015-10-11 00:18:52 <ididntdoit> i know this channel is for developers. can someone point me to a channel for someone new to bitcoin?
2 2015-10-11 00:19:56 <belcher> ididntdoit #bitcoin
3 2015-10-11 00:22:01 <ididntdoit> thank you
4 2015-10-11 04:05:29 <jcorgan> i see what you two did there
5 2015-10-11 04:10:52 <Luke-Jr> jcorgan: ?
6 2015-10-11 04:14:33 <jcorgan> http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/i-see-what-you-did-there
7 2015-10-11 04:14:37 <Luke-Jr> â¦
8 2015-10-11 05:14:27 <smellymoo> Lightsword, conf is blocknotify=/home/smellymoo/Desktop/szilla/blockhandler.sh %s
9 2015-10-11 05:14:31 <smellymoo> but I have tried lots of others.
10 2015-10-11 05:14:59 <smellymoo> with quotes, without address, ./ address, all sorts.
11 2015-10-11 05:24:01 <Luke-Jr> smellymoo: is blockhandler.sh +x?
12 2015-10-11 05:25:31 <smellymoo> well, anything send to blockhandler.sh on %1 is appended to a file, if nothing is sent it also makes an entry. so it is just not sending anything
13 2015-10-11 05:37:44 <smellymoo> basically, nothing is working for blocknotify, in fully syched testnet mode, regtest mode, it never notifies me.
14 2015-10-11 05:38:32 <smellymoo> tried passing the script name by -blocknotify to bitcoind also, nothing worked.
15 2015-10-11 05:39:12 <smellymoo> is block handler supposed to only notify you when you are 100% synched? as by the description I think not.
16 2015-10-11 05:44:02 <smellymoo> anyone?
17 2015-10-11 05:44:28 <smellymoo> googled the s**t out of this and not finding an answer.
18 2015-10-11 05:45:57 <CodeShark> if you can't find the answer in the source code itself you should probably be asking in #bitcoin ;)
19 2015-10-11 05:45:57 <warren> smellymoo: did you make the script executable?
20 2015-10-11 05:46:36 <smellymoo> warren, sure
21 2015-10-11 05:47:14 <smellymoo> CodeShark, no need to be hostile, good to ask people if they know of an answer before you look at source.
22 2015-10-11 05:47:42 <CodeShark> sorry, didn't mean to come across as hostile
23 2015-10-11 05:48:05 <smellymoo> "Topic for #bitcoin-dev is: Development of Bitcoin; This is for discussion about the Bitcoin network and reference software between developers."
24 2015-10-11 05:48:32 <smellymoo> it's ok. IRC has been very hostile recently.
25 2015-10-11 05:49:32 <smellymoo> got banned from #Debian for asking why bitcoin wasn't included, he replied by a pm, but I didn't see it, so I asked 3 more times in a chilled out way. Just the internet I guess, it's lost it's shine.
26 2015-10-11 05:50:37 <justanotheruser> smellymoo: it is included in unstable apparently https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=bitcoin
27 2015-10-11 05:50:50 <smellymoo> so, as you suggest CodeShark, maybe looking at source is the only answer... as it really isn't working, tried restarting bitcoind a bunch of times and also almost every possible permutation.
28 2015-10-11 05:51:14 <CodeShark> it's by far the most authoritative place to look for such answers ;)
29 2015-10-11 05:51:23 <justanotheruser> So perhaps it isn't because they didn't have a maintainer until recently?
30 2015-10-11 05:52:07 <smellymoo> justanotheruser, yeah, I found it eventually, I was new to Debian, so didn't get how they dealt with things (fedora guy)
31 2015-10-11 05:52:39 <smellymoo> CodeShark, ha, yeah, for sure.
32 2015-10-11 05:52:55 <smellymoo> justanotheruser, well, Debian, yeah... enough said ;)
33 2015-10-11 05:54:17 <CodeShark> smellymoo: FWIW, https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/main.cpp#L2324
34 2015-10-11 05:55:36 <CodeShark> that's where the action is - if you want to make 100% certain that line is getting executed, stick a tracer before it
35 2015-10-11 05:57:47 <CodeShark> the other interesting place to look is https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/init.cpp#L506
36 2015-10-11 06:01:46 <smellymoo> thanks ;)
37 2015-10-11 06:37:22 <zodiac_> hi ,i am new in bitcoin dev and i need some good documentations , so please help me
38 2015-10-11 06:46:30 <CodeShark> zodiac_: start here, https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md
39 2015-10-11 06:54:30 <jgarzik_> zodiac_, CodeShark: bitcoin.org has some great resources, including https://bitcoin.org/en/developer-documentation
40 2015-10-11 06:54:48 <zodiac_> thanks a lot CodeShark , is there any other advanced documentations i mean just like https://bitcoin.org/en/developer-guide
41 2015-10-11 06:55:50 <CodeShark> zodiac_: if you want to delve into how things work I'd recommend starting with stuff like https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Protocol_documentation
42 2015-10-11 06:55:57 <jgarzik_> zodiac_, The wiki includes many specific advanced topics: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Main_Page Besides that, the source code -- and asking in this IRC channel -- are useful references. The preferred development environment is Linux OS.
43 2015-10-11 06:57:45 <zodiac_> jgarzik_ i am very thankful for your help , thank you the wiki link is really great
44 2015-10-11 06:58:36 <zodiac_> this is exactly what i am looking for the protocol spec , i am a pentester and i want to play little bit with the protocol spec and trying to find any possible vuln using a specification based analysis
45 2015-10-11 06:59:23 <zodiac_> also i noticed that there is no RFC for bitcoin am i right ?
46 2015-10-11 07:18:35 <smellymoo> CodeShark, hmm, don't see any issues with the code, although it did answer my question as to weither it tells you of transactions on initial sych.
47 2015-10-11 07:25:54 <jgarzik_> zodiac_, correct
48 2015-10-11 07:26:46 <zodiac_> okay thank you jgarzik_
49 2015-10-11 07:34:41 <jamesob> jgarzik hope you don't mind my mangling of authproxy in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/6804
50 2015-10-11 09:05:04 <smellymoo> CodeShark, looked into your suggestions, can't see a problem with the code. I'll keep looking for the issue, someone else did post a problem online saying similar. hmm, won't go to the tracer yet, as I'm not compiling it atm.
51 2015-10-11 09:24:43 <jtimon> ping #6068
52 2015-10-11 09:35:40 <smellymoo> ?
53 2015-10-11 09:42:32 <jtimon> CodeShark: I really like 6774 and 6747 but I left some minor nits
54 2015-10-11 12:05:51 <btcdrak> wow, what happened to the mempool, dropped dramatically overnight https://tradeblock.com/bitcoin/
55 2015-10-11 12:08:32 <aj> btcdrak: (still 1GB/83k here...)
56 2015-10-11 12:08:45 <btcdrak> ah ,they must have reset their node.
57 2015-10-11 12:08:57 <btcdrak> or it crashed lol
58 2015-10-11 14:26:02 <kyuupichan> btcdrak: They've done more than restarted it. I've started a node after they did, and my mempool is 6x theirs now. They're limiting it somehow.
59 2015-10-11 14:26:22 <btcdrak> ic
60 2015-10-11 14:26:29 <kyuupichan> Actually 8x :)
61 2015-10-11 20:57:41 <BlueMatt> midnightmagic: I fixed the cant-mutate bug yesterday, btw
62 2015-10-11 20:57:49 <BlueMatt> midnightmagic: it only effects multisig txn
63 2015-10-11 20:58:56 <midnightmagic> BlueMatt: ah, okay. did you commit to your /seed branch?
64 2015-10-11 20:59:09 <BlueMatt> yea, but I force-pushed
65 2015-10-11 20:59:16 <BlueMatt> its a 10-char diff, if you see it :)
66 2015-10-11 20:59:41 <BlueMatt> specifically, this line changed: https://github.com/TheBlueMatt/bitcoin/commit/7b662b037d865bbe3166de3eee9a85297a5dfb54#diff-be2905e2f5218ecdbe4e55637dac75f3R1136
67 2015-10-11 21:07:43 <midnightmagic> BlueMatt: Okie dokie, so mutabletx -> tx. Okay, I'll rebuild and deploy.
