Title: How do I Verify that a Transaction is Mine? Post by: WatchTheif on April 10, 2014, 03:58:54 PM How does bitcoind know when a transaction is related or of relevance to my address(es)?
How can I check if a transaction is mine quickly? I understand gettransaction will throw an exception when it is not mine, but is there a faster way? Cheers!

Would walletnotify meet your needs? Title: Re: How do I Verify that a Transaction is Mine? Post by: WatchTheif on April 10, 2014, 04:46:38 PM I would like to know how the wallet processes transactions and determines which transactions belong to me and which do not.
Yes, walletnotify fires when a tx related to me has changed and whatnot. But I would like to understand the back end a little more in the bitcoind.

Well man, it's a complex subject.Yes, walletnotify fires when a tx related to me has changed and whatnot. But I would like to understand the back end a little more in the bitcoind. Nobody can explain it to you in like one post. Had you have a specific question, that would be much easier. How the wallet processes transactions - that's the ultimate question, but there is no ultimate answer. Just a lot of studying.

I'm just wondering if there is any quick way to identify what transaction is mine and what is not using a txid. It may be the case that I end up using gettransaction and just letting it throw an error when the tx is not mine. I just want to know what is available for this specific functionality.
@Ek yes I've looked up isMine in the CPP code, I understand some of it, thanks for verifying I'm headed in the right direction, it does explain a lot. |
