. Old copies will be left in place. - The log timestamp format is now ISO 8601 (e.g. "2019-01-28T15:41:17Z")
- Behavior change: in case of multiple values for an argument, the following rules apply:
- From the command line, the last value takes precedence
- From the config file, the first value takes precedence
- From the config file, if an argument is negated it takes precedent over all the previous occurences of this argument (e.g. "foo=2 \n nofoo=1" will set foo=0)
- The configuration files now support assigning options to a specific network.
To do so, sections or prefix can be used:
main.uacomment=bch-mainnet
test.uacomment=bch-testnet
regtest.uacomment=bch-regtest
[main]
mempoolsize=300
[test]
mempoolsize=200
[regtest]
mempoolsize=50
The
addnode=
,connect=
,port=
,bind=
,rpcport=
,rpcbind=
andwallet=
options will only apply to mainnet when specified in the configuration file, unless a network is specified.
