Hello all,
I'd like to add notifications to the client and wallet, to decouple UI and
core communication, and especially so that UIs no longer have to poll for
changes.
I propose to use the boost::signal mechanism for that. It is basically a
glorified callback system, but allows decoupled delivery of 'signals' from
an object. Multiple other objects can listen in on an event without the
emitting object having to care.
Wallet:
class CWallet { ...
boost::signal<void(int64)> balanceChanged;
}
void CWallet::newTx (...) {
...
balanceChanged(new_balance);
...
}
UI:
GUI::GUI(CWallet *wallet) {
...
wallet->balanceChanged.connect(boost::bind(&GUI::balanceChanged, this,
_1));
}
GUI::balanceChanged(int64 new_balance) {
someWidget->setValue(new_balance);
}
Specific notifications that would be useful:
Wallet:
- balanceChanged(int64): spendable balance changed
- transactionAdded(int256): new transaction added to wallet
- transactionUpdated(int256): transaction info changed
- transactionRemoved(int256): transaction removed from wallet (can this
happen? for completeness)
- addressAdded(int160): address was added to address book
- addressUpdated(int160): address label/other metadata was modified
- addressRemoved(int160): address was removed from address book
- notification(std::string message, int severity): warning/error occured
in wallet processing, notify user
- int askFee(std::string message, ...): ask user for fee
Network client:
- numConnectionsChanged(int): new connections / connections broken
- numBlocksChanged(int): new blocks came in or other changes to block
chain
- notification(std::string message, int severity): warning/error occured
in network processing, notify user
