From 96b733e99694e74dcd38b16112655f7e1ea2d43b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Wladimir J. van der Laan" Date: Tue, 3 Jun 2014 16:12:19 +0200 Subject: Add `-version` option to get just the version Adds a `-version` or `--version` option to print just the version of the program for bitcoind, bitcoin-cli and bitcoin-qt. Also make it that `-help` can be used to display the help (as well as existing `--help`). Up to now, `-help` was the only option that didn't work with either one or two dashes. --- src/bitcoind.cpp | 27 +++++++++++++++------------ 1 file changed, 15 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) (limited to 'src/bitcoind.cpp') diff --git a/src/bitcoind.cpp b/src/bitcoind.cpp index 704332c39..99dc9d726 100644 --- a/src/bitcoind.cpp +++ b/src/bitcoind.cpp @@ -83,19 +83,22 @@ bool AppInit(int argc, char* argv[]) return false; } - if (mapArgs.count("-?") || mapArgs.count("--help")) + if (mapArgs.count("-?") || mapArgs.count("-help") || mapArgs.count("-version")) { - // First part of help message is specific to bitcoind / RPC client - std::string strUsage = _("Bitcoin Core Daemon") + " " + _("version") + " " + FormatFullVersion() + "\n\n" + - _("Usage:") + "\n" + - " bitcoind [options] " + _("Start Bitcoin Core Daemon") + "\n" + - _("Usage (deprecated, use bitcoin-cli):") + "\n" + - " bitcoind [options] [params] " + _("Send command to Bitcoin Core") + "\n" + - " bitcoind [options] help " + _("List commands") + "\n" + - " bitcoind [options] help " + _("Get help for a command") + "\n"; - - strUsage += "\n" + HelpMessage(HMM_BITCOIND); - strUsage += "\n" + HelpMessageCli(false); + std::string strUsage = _("Bitcoin Core Daemon") + " " + _("version") + " " + FormatFullVersion() + "\n"; + + if (!mapArgs.count("-version")) + { + strUsage += "\n" + _("Usage:") + "\n" + + " bitcoind [options] " + _("Start Bitcoin Core Daemon") + "\n" + + _("Usage (deprecated, use bitcoin-cli):") + "\n" + + " bitcoind [options] [params] " + _("Send command to Bitcoin Core") + "\n" + + " bitcoind [options] help " + _("List commands") + "\n" + + " bitcoind [options] help " + _("Get help for a command") + "\n"; + + strUsage += "\n" + HelpMessage(HMM_BITCOIND); + strUsage += "\n" + HelpMessageCli(false); + } fprintf(stdout, "%s", strUsage.c_str()); return false; -- cgit v1.2.3 From 45615af26fe374fa996c116984a05f0a632a0e79 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Wladimir J. van der Laan" Date: Tue, 10 Jun 2014 16:02:46 +0200 Subject: Add 'about' information to `-version` output Adds a copyright and attribution message to the `-version` output (the same as shown in the About dialog in the GUI).
