Instead of blocking the entire UI with "Activating best chain..." until
the daemon finishes warmup, treat warmup responses as a successful
connection. The wallet now:
- Sets connected=true + warming_up=true when daemon returns RPC -28
- Shows warmup status with block progress in the loading overlay
- Polls getinfo every few seconds to detect warmup completion
- Allows Console, Peers, Settings tabs during warmup
- Shows orange status indicator with warmup message in status bar
- Skips balance/tx/address refresh until warmup completes
- Triggers full data refresh once daemon is ready
Also: fix curl handle/header leak on reconnect, fill in empty
externalDetected error branch, bump version to v1.2.0 in build scripts.
- Replace hardcoded IP addnodes with node.dragonx.is, node1–4.dragonx.is
in both daemon launch params and auto-generated DRAGONX.conf
- Add max_connections setting (persisted, default 0 = daemon default);
passed as -maxconnections= flag to dragonxd on startup
- Show blocks/sec in status bar during sync with exponential smoothing
(e.g. "Syncing 45.2% (12340 left, 85 blk/s)")
- Create .github/copilot-instructions.md with project coding standards,
architecture overview, threading model, and key rules for AI sessions
- Add module description comments to app.cpp, rpc_client.cpp, rpc_worker.cpp,
embedded_daemon.cpp, xmrig_manager.cpp, console_tab.cpp, settings.cpp
- Add ASCII connection state diagram to app_network.cpp
- Remove /.github/ from .gitignore so instructions file is tracked
Mine-when-idle:
- Auto-start/stop mining based on system idle time detection
- Platform::getSystemIdleSeconds() via XScreenSaver (Linux) / GetLastInputInfo (Win)
- Settings: mine_when_idle toggle + configurable delay (30s–10m)
- Settings page UI with checkbox and delay combo
Console tab:
- Shell-like argument parsing with quote and JSON bracket support
- Pass JSON objects/arrays directly as RPC params
- Fix selection indices when lines are evicted from buffer
Connection & status bar:
- Reduce RPC connect timeout to 1s for localhost fast-fail
- Fast retry timer on daemon startup and external daemon detection
- Show pool mining hashrate in status bar; sidebar badge reflects pool state
UI polish:
- Add logo to About card in settings; expose logo dimensions on App
- Header title offset-y support; adjust content-area margins
- Fix banned peers row cursor position (rawRowPosB.x)
Branding:
- Update copyright to "DragonX Developers" in RC and About section
- Replace logo/icon assets with updated versions
Misc:
- setup.sh: checkout dragonx branch before pulling
- Remove stale prebuilt-binaries/xmrig/.gitkeep
Diagnostics & logging:
- add verbose logging system (VERBOSE_LOGF) with toggle in Settings
- forward app-level log messages to Console tab for in-UI visibility
- add detailed connection attempt logging (attempt #, daemon state,
config paths, auth failures, port owner identification)
- detect HTTP 401 auth failures and show actionable error messages
- identify port owner process (PID + name) on both Linux and Windows
- demote noisy acrylic/shader traces from DEBUG_LOGF to VERBOSE_LOGF
- persist verbose_logging preference in settings.json
- link iphlpapi on Windows for GetExtendedTcpTable
Security & encryption:
- update local encryption state immediately after encryptwallet RPC
so Settings reflects the change before daemon restarts
- show notifications for encrypt success/failure and PIN skip
- use dedicated RPC client for z_importwallet during decrypt flow
to avoid blocking main rpc_ curl_mutex (which starved peer/tx refresh)
- force full state refresh (addresses, transactions, peers) after
successful wallet import
Network tab:
- redesign peers refresh button as glass-panel with icon + label,
matching the mining button style
- add spinning arc animation while peer data is loading
(peer_refresh_in_progress_ atomic flag set/cleared in refreshPeerInfo)
- prevent double-click spam during refresh
- add refresh-button size to ui.toml
Other:
- use fast_rpc_ for rescan polling to avoid blocking on main rpc_
- enable DRAGONX_DEBUG in all build configs (was debug-only)
- setup.sh: pull latest xmrig-hac when repo already exists
RPC client:
- Add call() overload with per-call timeout parameter
- z_exportwallet uses 300s, z_importwallet uses 1200s timeout
Decrypt wallet (app_security.cpp, app.cpp):
- Show per-step and overall elapsed timers during decrypt flow
- Reduce dialog to 5 steps; close before key import begins
- Run z_importwallet on detached background thread
- Add pulsing "Importing keys..." status bar indicator
- Report success/failure via notifications instead of dialog
RPC caching (app_network.cpp, app.h):
- Cache z_viewtransaction results in viewtx_cache_ across refresh cycles
- Skip RPC calls for already-cached txids (biggest perf win)
- Build confirmed_tx_cache_ for deeply-confirmed transactions
- Clear all caches on disconnect
- Remove unused refreshTransactions() dead code
Peers (app_network.cpp, peers_tab.cpp):
- Route refreshPeerInfo() through fast_worker_ to avoid head-of-line blocking
- Replace footer "Refresh Peers" button with ICON_MD_REFRESH in toggle header
- Refresh button triggers both peer list and full blockchain data refresh
Mining (mining_tab.cpp):
- Allow pool mining toggle when blockchain is not synced
- Pool mining only needs xmrig, not local daemon sync
- Fix z_importwallet to use full path instead of filename only
- Add rescanBlockchain() method that restarts daemon with -rescan flag
- Track rescan progress via daemon output parsing and getrescaninfo RPC
- Display rescan progress in status bar with animated indicator when starting
- Improve dark theme card contrast: lighter surface-variant, tinted borders, stronger rim-light
