hello,
   what does 'numbOfPeers' from getState mean?
   does it mean the total number of nodes that run NRS client?

No, I think it's the peers who connect to you or whom you connect to.

No, I think it's the peers who connect to you or whom you connect to.

It includes known and blacklisted peers also.

so，numbOfPeers should <= number of all nodes that run NRS client, If all nodes communicate well (they know each other) ,  numbOfPeers == number of all nodes, is that right?

No.
To get more info on a particular peer use http://localhost:7874/nxt?requestType=getPeer&peer=46.20.69.133
Peer state descriptions can be obtained via http://localhost:7874/nxt?requestType=getConstants

-Can multiple accounts be unlocked against the same NXT server at the same time?

-Further, can I distribute the nxt software with my client to achieve a hassle-free end user experience?

Thanks for your help!

What is the meaning of numberOfUsers in the result of getState?

What is the meaning of numberOfUsers in the result of getState?

This is number of attempts to open NRS web interface. Each page refresh creates a new user, even if they have the same account.

From getConstants:

"peerStates":[{"description":"Non-connected","value":0},{"description":"Connected","value":1},{"description":"Disconnected","value":2}]

What is the difference between Non-connected and Disconnected?

Non-connected: Never was connected to this node.
Disconnected: Was connected, but now disconnected.

Like this?

Why is the sendMoney API so slow on 0.4.8 (and most other versions)? It takes over 5 seconds per payment to get the txid, still a high percentage of these is not carried through. 34 peers shown.

Speed depends on number of peers it sends data to. Reduce maxNumberOfConnectedPublicPeers, increase pushThreshold, reduce connectTimeout.

Hi,

whenever I try to do the following:

GET http://localhost:7874/nxt?requestType=getAccountTransactionIds&account=18024643391205620992&timestamp=0&3.19606338E-8

I get an unknown account response.
Happens in 0.4.8, in 0.4.7e I got an incorrect timestamp error, and before everything was fine.

What am I doing wrong?
Do I need to do an unlockaccount request before this one?

Thanks.

U don't need to unlock the account.
I see

Code:

{"transactionIds":["15085253524419928473","8112176655741647048","9791683000981722521","17260745815379391255","13480409775214063395","7176052155437098924","8756057990016875314"]}

Send me ur blocks.nxt and transactions.nxt files plz.

Does the response of get_alias_ids include the ids of aliases that have been updated since the timestamp?

[Come-from-Beyond]

Does the response of get_alias_ids include the ids of aliases that have been updated since the timestamp?

Yes.

[marcus03]

Current list:

assignAlias
broadcastTransaction
decodeHallmark
decodeToken
cancelAskOrder
cancelBidOrder
getAccountId
getAccountTransactionIds
getAlias
getAliasIds
getAliasURI
getAskOrder
getAskOrderIds
getAsset
getAssetIds
getBalance
getBidOrder
getBidOrderIds
getBlock
getConstants
getMyInfo
getPeer
getPeers
getState
getTime
getTransaction
getTransactionBytes
getUnconfirmedTransactionIds
issueAsset
markHost
placeAskOrder
placeBidOrder
sendMoney
transferAsset

Lock/unlock is for client only, this is not API.

Encoding a token - no such API
Generating account id = getAccountId

PS: This is complete list, some calls r absent in 0.3.20 and will be included into 0.4.0 (related to alias system) or disabled for the time being (related to asset exchange)

Can we get a "getCommands" command that returns the list of commands?
