Java library for adding altcoin support to bitcoinj
afef6bc029
1) Added getters and setters to many objects that lacked them. 2) Introduce a parseLite method that is called even in "lazy parse" mode. This calculates the length of the message so children can be skipped when parsing a container object. 3) Full serialization for AddressMessage 4) Added a (huge, standalone) SpeedTest. 5) Add unit tests for the matrix of lazy parsing modes. A bunch of review comments are added to the TODO list for completion after the patch series is checked in. This is to avoid large numbers of merge conflicts as later parts of the patch-series are committed. |

To get started, ensure you have the latest JDK installed, and download Maven from: http://maven.apache.org/ Then run "mvn clean package" to compile the software. You can also run "mvn site:site" to generate a website with useful information like JavaDocs. The outputs are under the target/ directory. Now ensure you're running a BitCoin node locally and run the example app: mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass=com.google.bitcoin.examples.PingService It will download the block chain and eventually print a BitCoin address. If you send coins to it, you should get them back a few minutes later when a block is solved. Note that if you connect to a node that is itself downloading the block chain, you will see very slow progress (1 block per second or less). Find a node that isn't heavily loaded to connect to. If you get a SocketDisconnectedException, the node you've connected to has its max send buffer set to low (unfortunately the default is too low). Connect to a node that has a bigger send buffer, settable by passing -maxsendbuffer=25600 to the Bitcoin C++ software. For the convenience of Eclipse users, you can copy dependency jars to target/dependency using: mvn dependency:copy-dependencies
