NavCoin v4.5.2 Release Notes
Community Fund Duplicate Payment Hard Fork
<Pull Request 413> <Commit 7ef765b> Fixes a bug where the Community Fund payment requests could be accepted by the network multiple times. Enforces version bit 21 for all blocks after blockheight 2882875 as well as rejecting duplicate payments after the fork height.
Voting Cycle Counter Hotfix
<Pull Request 396>
<Commit a6782c3>
Fixes a bug where the votingCycle field of community fund proposals and payment requests would continue to increment after their terminal state if a user reorgs. Also for proposal/payment requests which change from pending to expired, when the voting cycle is 1 over the cycle limit, staker’s votes would continue to be counted even though such proposal/payment request is expired. This bug did not affect network consensus on the status of proposal or payment requests.
Faster Blockchain Sync
<Pull Request 390> <Commit 1990d92> Keeps a cache of the community fund votes to avoid an unnecessary recalculation per block which was causing extreme slow synchronization per block. After applying the patch the CountVotes() function is significantly faster.
RPC Tests newly implemented and fixed
The RPC unit test work mainly involved fixing broken RPC tests inherited from Bitcoin as well as creating new ones. This expands our test suite allowing for greater coverage which provides quality checks to the existing codebase and future updates.
