Title: how to code for Bitcoin/or any other d. currencies
Post by: akipfer on May 15, 2013, 08:19:20 AM
i would live to do an app, that the user will download and use on their pc, this app is capable of sending coins to x wallet, also when user y get their coins confirmed, the app(p2p app) would send 0.xxxxxx coins back to first user.

something like that, should be hard code for who knos where to start, but i don't know, and i did search a lot, didn't find anything but shit on btc docs page. even on their wiki...says all arguments/commands to json rpc. BUT doesn't show how to install/use that json, how to call it/use from cmd let's say.

would be awesome if it has simple gui. But if i can't, i accept a cmd promt app, like cg miner is.

This kinda stuff NEED way more docs, tutorial/video tutorials, if anyone knows how to, please do it some video tutorials for us, the good, old newbies haha.
i only use PHP
but i don't want to, cause p2p i think would be better, but could use MySQL to store data(read wallet address, plus other stuffs) if p2p is not possible.

any advice's/tutorial/help at all
video tutorial would be AWESOME, just AWESOME.

i think that's all folks
haha bye, Thx for all.

PHP is not suitable for this purpose. It's designed for webservers, not for client programs. While you could butcher your way to a client program by using one of the PHP -> .exe compilers out there, it's not at all a desirable path to take, especially for a program that handles money.

You're much better off learning a more general purpose language, like C# or just VB.net if you want to keep it simple.

i know, that's why if i use PHP is on Server side only, wish i hope i don't need it, cause only wanna use the wallet client to do transactions

can i use the bitcoin-qt.exe? some like that.... as json rpc?
