NXT :: descendant of Bitcoin - Updated Information

[McDoxy]

I tried to deposit some Nxt to BTER yesterday and it already had more than 20 confirmations after an hour, but didn't go through yet. I already contacted the support.

Does anybody else have this issue?

McDoxy,

Deposit to bter took for me ~48 hours, so its ok.
I've written to support several times, the answer was "Sir, please wait"

Contacts with support is useless, unless you know chineese

My current setup is that i use embedded jetty and feed the Nxt servlet on startup to jetty.
What's the setup you use for jetty? Will i still need to embed my own or will 0.8.0 take care of that?

You shouldn't need to deal with jetty directly. You call Nxt.init() which will trigger all initializations, and will start the jetty servlets it needs (if nxt.shareMyAddress=false, it will not start the PeerServlet, if nxt.enableUIServer=false it will not start the UserServlet for the NRS UI), and is safe to call multiple times. Then, there will be Nxt.getBlockchain(), Nxt.getBlockchainProcessor() and Nxt.getTransactionProcessor() to get hold of the corresponding singletons. The init adds a shutdownHook to handle stopping the threads and closing the database at the jvm shutdown, I assume you never need to shutdown it explicitly once started until the application exit.

That's a lot of changes I am going through, so 0.8.0e should come out some time next week, and I will have to keep it compatible with 0.7.6 peers until client packagers and developers transition to 0.8.0.

P.S.: Don't buy too much. If we gonna be at the 2nd place today, no problem. We'll be added the next days.

Same issue for me.

If I'm correct Bter deposits work like this:
- you get personal (=unique) NXT deposit account
- you transfer NXT there
- Bter has some kind of service/cronjob that iterates over those personal account numbers and if it finds NXT on one of them, moves it to the Bter main account while crediting it to your web-account

atm, it seems like this service has long idle periods - meaning the NXT hang on your personal deposit account

BTW, when will you folks release the source code?

When the code is released, I would like some way that will make cloning by FrictionlessCoin either illegal or difficult (put some bugs in it)

Yup seems like they are adding coins every few days

[Hegemon]

if Mintpal adds NXT, hope they will write it NXT and not Nextcoin like actually they do.

Never ending story...

I hope so too! Not because i am against clones, but because this stupid-fuck is missrepresenting us...

Go to your account and near NXT try to push SYNC. It works sometimes.

Why? 0.7.6 source code already released. If FC hasn't used it already I bet he won't use it in the future.

I don't think this will happen and nor should it.

If dickheads were banned from using technology, Thomas Edison and Henry Ford would never have been in business.

Restricting the code would restrict everyone. And second: who would decide who COULD use it? You can't get more centralised than that.

Not saying I like it, just saying you would initiate some highly undesirable developments.

We included the ability to start and stop Jetty since we like the user to be able to delete the blockchain and start-fresh from a command in the UI  we also used a shutdown hook but then to gracefully take down jetty so Nxt had time to shut down and write everything from memory. As i understand it you now have all cleanup code in a shutdown listener of your own, thats nice.

I believe so to that there is no use for a shutdown/startup sequence in a single jvm session, just restart jvm and your done.

What can you say about the status of the database, will it remain H2 and will this remain an internal implementation or do you see developers accessing or updating data in the database them selves?

Also, regarding custom colored coins. Will you be doing some more standardization in that area? Will there be more work towards an API to work with *custom* attachments? Not that it's strictly needed just wondering if you had ideas in that area.

what for nexern client?26th jan was date reliase but today is 20th feb and it isn't.now we got 5 different client.solaris Clienxt and other.

Where is it? The nxt-public BitBucket repository still has the old 0.4 version if I'm not mistaken.
