Title: Client string Post by: Skybuck on December 01, 2011, 02:21:59 PM Hello,
It could be interesting to include a "client string" in the protocol, which could be used to identified alternative clients. Like bittorrent does ;) Bye, Skybuck =D Title: Re: Client string Post by: blueadept on December 01, 2011, 08:49:37 PM The sub_version_num field (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Protocol_specification#version) looks like it allows that.
BitcoinJ (http://code.google.com/p/bitcoinj/source/browse/src/com/google/bitcoin/core/VersionMessage.java) appears to use it. |
