combining bitcoinj with bitcoinj cash

[Bobby_Bouche]

I currently have a java project already near completion using just bitcoinj to deal with bitcoin.

I went through the code for cash and i see that its nearly a perfect mirror.

So my question is this. How can i distinguish between bitcoinj and bitcoinjcash in terms of retrieving wallet balances, sending/receiving payments, etc..

[Andreas Schildbach]

Bitcoinj doesn't support BCH. I guess you'll need to import both
libraries; bitcoincashj should be in its own namespace.

the bitcoinj cash version.

its nearly an exact copy, but i dont know how to get the 2 blocks to sync in unision on 1 program. Do you have experience with this?

[Carlos López-Camey]

Hi Bobby,

For the time being, if you want to support BTC, tBTC, BCH and tBTC, see: https://github.com/Stash-Crypto/bitcoincashj, which we are using for Stash Wallet.!

so how do you instantiate the different addresses? And is there one with litecoin and dash? Can you provide the setup for the walletkit and the blockchain sync issues?

Look in BIP47AppKit#isValidAdress for the logic of that. Every instance uses a different class.

And is there one with litecoin and dash?

2 months ago I used Github API to find a unique list of bitcoinj fork names: 

https://pastebin.com/UYW7gUtH

Most are updated many years ago but you may find dashj from HashEngineering very attractive.

> u provide the setup for the walletkit and the blockchain sync issues?

Give BIP47AppKit a try. You can take the code from the first cell here and run it in minutes: https://blog.stashwalletapp.com/bip47-bitcoinj/

- Carlos. 

[Bobby_Bouche]

I grabbed stash-crypto, but i still see nothing that would show how to deal with bitcoin cash addresses, its protocol for listenable events and other basic things.

What sets bitcoin and bitcoin cash different in this code wise?

I looked at your bip for payment codes, looks interesting but doesnt it have to be both ways? Perhaps ill throw it as an option. But my main focus is getting bitcoin cash and bitcoin to be in the same program.l

[Carlos López-Camey]

It's not very different because an address is just a representation of a public key and they use the same type for public key.

If you search the code for `getUseForkId()` you will find some "ifs" for the protocol implementation, like special transactiom signing (for replay protection) or connecting to the right nodes. But there are not so many differences, as you said both projects look like a mirror

[Bobby_Bouche]

I got bitcoinj-cash-0.14 and tried searching for "getUseForkId()" but found nothing...Im using intellij

[Carlos López-Camey]

If you are using Linux or cygwin, try grep:

```

find $PATH_TO_BITCOINJ_SOURCE -type f |grep java$ |xargs grep getUseForkId

```

You should find getUseForkId.

Sure man, normally you can CTRL + SHIFT + F for global search in intellij no?

[Bobby_Bouche]

That is embarassing, i was only doing ctrl+F.

Moving on. So i went through the code but im still not quite understanding how it distinguishes between bitcoin and bitcoincash.

I got Wallet.java, SendRequest.java and TransactionSigner.java opened.

[Jimmy Morales]

What distinguishes between bitcoin and bitcoincash are the Network Parameters classes. Use BCCMainNetParams for bitcoincash, BCCTestNet3Params for testnet bitcoincash, MainNetParams for bitcoin and TestNet3Params for testnet bitcoin.

[Bobby_Bouche]

package wallettemplate;

import org.bitcoinj.core.NetworkParameters;
import org.bitcoinj.kits.WalletAppKit;
import org.bitcoinj.params.TestNet3Params;
//import org.bitcoinj.params.BCCTestNet3Params;

import java.io.File;

public class TestHybrid {
    //Bitcoin
    public static NetworkParameters params = TestNet3Params.get();
    public static WalletAppKit kit = new WalletAppKit(params, new File("."), "bitcoin");
    //Bitcoin Cash
    //public static NetworkParameters params1 = BCCTestNet3Params.get();
    //public static WalletAppKit kit1 = new WalletAppKit(params1, new File("."), "bitcoincash");

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        kit.startAsync();
        kit.awaitRunning();
        System.out.println(kit.wallet().currentReceiveAddress().toString());
    }
}

BCCTestNet3Params.get(); shows up in red. saying it cannot resolve.

are all the other bitcoinj forks work the same way such as this?

For example...litecoinj, dashj and other forks from here --> https://pastebin.com/UYW7gUtH

And also how would you merge these into 1 program since theya re from different modules. Im currently using Intellij.

[Carlos López-Camey]

You can run "mvn clean install" command to get a .jar bundle file (bitcoincashj-core-0.14.7-bip47.3-bundled.jar in core/target) and then you can add this jar to IntellIJ 2018 in Project Structure -> Libraries.

Make sure you are on the release-0.14 branch

[Bobby_Bouche]

Where are you guys doing mvn clean install? In command prompt? Under build? I cant seem to find the jar...

[Carlos López-Camey]

Sorry Bobby,

I meant `mvn clean package`

(Check out the README.md file too)

Run it inside the cloned repository.. or also check out the release tab in Github for source code downloading

i got the source code already. im just trying to build it in a jar format that i can add with my main bitcoin program to have both. But im having problems. im trying to use mvn but it says its not recognized. i checked paths and i have it installed.

still unable to get this working. Is there another step i can try? to get mvn to compile

I was finally able to compile it it was a stupid mistake on my part. I went to core > target saw the snapshot, bundled and javadoc.

i still fail to understand how i can distinguish it by code the different blockchains?

Bump.

How can i distinguish from bitcoin to bitcoin cash? They are a mirror to each other code wise.

Hi Bobby,

Sorry it took so long!

You may need two bitcoinj jars (or not) - I sent you earlier a repo link [1] where we try to avoid code duplication and use only one bitcoinj project to support the two, with IF conditionals in the code.

 

Depending on what you are trying to do with your code, you will need to change bits.  The most relevant change is your "NetworkParameters" instance that is passed as parameter to any Wallet, PeerGroup, Context, etc. 

If you look at our repo, there are NetworkParameter subclasses: 

BCCMainNetParams.java - for BCH

MainNetParams.java - for BTC

TestNet3Params.java - for tBTC 

BCCTestNet3Params.java.- for tBCH

So you just need to instantiate whichever you like for the network you want !

Now, if you want to use use two bitcoinjs, you are in trouble because the same package names are used:

org.bitcoinj.params.MainNetParams.java - for BTC

org.bitcoinj.params.MainNetParams.java - for BCH

And in a Java project you can not have one class name represent two different classes.

I must have downloaded the wrong one.

When i was putting BCC params it wasn't recognizing. But now it works fine.

Now when i try to compile it using "mvn clean package" i get these errors.

https://pastebin.com/qgXqunkh

I do have a side question though. I plan to add other cryptos such as ethereum, litecoin, monero and dash. Would it be feasible to fit all this in 1 java program? I know this is focused on bitcoin and bitcoin cash so any answer would be helpful.

[Carlos López-Camey]

Oh yeah,

I forgot to mention: You need to be running on openjdk instead of oraclejdk..

The reason is that we used the spongy castle "provider" for BIP-47 and it needs to be signed by oracle before it can be used in their jdk !

Afaik, Litecoin and Dash have a bitcoinj fork implementation, so you could look at them. Ethereum and Monero are different beasts, and you will need to seek other options other than bitcoinj.

you see openjdk in the output?

Also try to skip the tests like this:

Hi Carlos. I was able to successfully add it to my project using the jar. thank you.

I do have a question. When i sync bitcoin then bitcoin-cash the peers cant be connected. It hangs. I know this because i have a progress bar to grab the % of the blockchain downloaded.

I get these a lot. since my program requires it to be synced at 100% the program would only progress 10% of the time. The other times i either have to wait for a good 5 minutes or i just kill it.

Here is what deals with the sync. https://pastebin.com/bPJzTDmh

Also because i want to know if this happens next time these are the jar compile errors...https://pastebin.com/QZw3PZCK

[Carlos López-Camey]

Hi Bobby,

I think you should call startBlockchainDownload() on the kit, after setting the download listener and it should go to 100%.

The 2 test failures in the other log are intermitent I think.. so you should try to replicate, but I don't think you need to run the tests (use -DskipTests=true ?).  

Carlos

i dont see startBlockchainDownload() anywhere here.https://bitcoinj.github.io/javadoc/0.14.7/

Did you mean kit.startAsync(); ? Because its already there o.0?

This is what i got...

            Diagnostic.BTCProgress = 100;
        }
    };
    BTCkit.setDownloadListener(BTCListener).setBlockingStartup(false);
    BTCkit.startAsync();
    BTCkit.awaitRunning();
}

Hey Bobby,

These warnings can be normal and don't indicate total failure. They are saying that some peers rejected a connection attempt.

If you want to smooth/debug the process, I would say:

 - Add some "static" peer IPs for your BCH PeerGroup (see PeerGroup#addPeer). Look here: https://www.shodan.io/search?query=Bitcoin+ABC

 - Try bitcoinj-cash directly to see if these warning dissapear, if you report back that using bitcoinj-cash/bitcoinj fixes the  issue entirely I would be grateful.

Thanks

Hi Carlos. So i tried just bitcoinj-cash and i had no issues. Sync was fine.

I went back to bitcoin hybrid and the issue persists.

When i delete the spvchain and force it to redownload the file it still doesnt always download the spvchain.

When it does at random times i get a negative percent for spvchain being downloaded.

Context.propagate(new Context(BCHparams));

DownloadProgressTracker BCHListener = new DownloadProgressTracker() {
    @Override
    public void progress(double pct, int blocksSoFar, Date date) {
        System.out.println(BackEnd.strFormat("GOOD","BCH","GOOD","BlockChain "+(int)pct+"%"));
        Diagnostic.BCHProgress = (int)pct;
    }
    @Override
    public void doneDownload() {
        System.out.println(BackEnd.strFormat("PASS","BCH","PASS","BlockChain Complete"));
        System.out.println(BackEnd.strFormat("INFO","BCH","INFO","Address : "+BackEnd.gaddress(BCHkit)+" - "+BackEnd.gbal(BCHkit)));
        Diagnostic.BCHProgress = 100;
    }
};

BCHkit.setDownloadListener(BCHListener).setBlockingStartup(false).startAsync().awaitRunning();

output is here...

[23:49:03][BCH] : BlockChain -16%

[23:49:03][BCH] : BlockChain -15%

[23:49:03][BCH] : BlockChain -14%

[23:49:04][BCH] : BlockChain -13%

[23:49:04][BCH] : BlockChain -12%

[23:49:04][BCH] : BlockChain -11%

Curious....got some sort of ETA on a response?

Ok, I couldn't replicate the issue alone in our hybrid repo. I saw the WARN messages happen in 3 different bitcoinj jar bundles and I believe it happens when there is a reattempt to connect to a peer that has a stablished a connection with our IP before.

I am syncing all WalletAppKits in under one minute (from scratch) in 3 different programs.. so i think it's not a bug. 

I am sending you the source code: https://github.com/kmels/download_chains_from_scratch/commit/5504ed5270c84e640dabc05cfdd6dffda145ab4c

To run it, just read the comments in the top of each java file

Good luck!!
