- Simplify and consolidate code for parsing hex input.
- Replace beast::endian::order with boost::endian::order.
- Simplify CountedObject code.
- Remove pre-C++17 workarounds in favor of C++17 based solutions.
- Improve `base_uint` and simplify its hex-parsing interface by
consolidating the `SexHex` and `SetHexExact` methods into one
API: `parseHex` which forces callers to verify the result of
the operation; as a result some public-facing API endpoints
may now return errors when passed values that were previously
accepted.
- Remove the simple fallback implementations of SHA2 and RIPEMD
introduced to reduce our dependency on OpenSSL. The code is
slow and rarely, if ever, exercised and we rely on OpenSSL
functionality for Boost.ASIO as well.
At this point all of the jss::* names are defined in the same
file. That file has been named JsonFields.h. That file name
has little to do with either JsonStaticStrings (which is what
jss is short for) or with jss. The file is renamed to jss.h
so the file name better reflects what the file contains.
All includes of that file are fixed. A few include order
issues are tidied up along the way.
Previously if you mistyped the "submit_multisigned" command as
"submit_multisign", the returned message was "Internal error". Not
very helpful. It turns out this was caused by a small amount of
code in RPCCall.cpp. Removing that code improves two situations:
1. It improves the situation with a mistyped command. Now the
command returns "Unknown method" and provides the string of
the mistyped command.
2. The "transaction_entry", if properly entered in its command
line form, would fire an assert. That assert is now removed.
In the process, it was discovered that the command line form of
the "transaction_entry" command has not worked correctly for at
least a year. Therefore support for that the command line form
of "transaction_entry" is added along with appropriate unit
tests.
