There is no point to using time.Duration if the value is interpreted as
milliseconds. Callers should use the standard multiplication idiom to
choose the unit. In fact, the only caller outside of the tests already
does so.
Account is now always a non-pointer. This will be important once
the manager starts remembering accounts.
AccountManager is now always a pointer because it contains locks
and locks cannot be copied.
* Add from to eth_transact / xeth.Transact and add static pass in lieu
of integrating with native Mist window for user passphrase entry
* Make eth_accounts return AccountManager.Accounts()
* Add a Generate Key menu item in Mist
The ethereum command line interface is now structured using subcommands.
These separate the different tasks it can perform.
Almost all flag names are backwards compatible.
The key tasks have not been ported to subcommands since they will be
replaced by the new accounts infrastructure very soon.
Various functions throughout the codebase used it to grab settings. This
has to stop because I want to use them without reading the config file.
These functions can now be used without reading the config first:
* ethdb.NewLDBDatabase
* ethrepl.NewJSRepl
* vm.New
* Add blocktest cmd and support for block tests files in
tests/BlockTests , the launched node does not connect to
network, resets state with a genesis block from the test file
and starts the RPC API
With RLPx frames, the message code is contained in the
frame and is no longer part of the encoded data.
EncodeMsg, Msg.Decode have been updated to match.
Code that decodes RLP directly from Msg.Payload will need
to change.
This mostly changes how information is passed around.
Instead of using many function parameters and return values,
put the entire state in a struct and pass that.
This also adds back derivation of ecdhe-shared-secret. I deleted
it by accident in a previous refactoring.
