03:23 < jayd3e> why does bitcoind.cpp use fprintf(stdout, "%s", strUsage.c_str()); instead of printf()? Isn't fprintf(stdout,..) equivalent to printf?

03:23 < sipa> in a long gone ancient past, bitcoind had its own printf function

03:24 < sipa> which has since been renamed and reworked into LogPrint and LogPrintf

03:24 < sipa> so we could turn that fprintf into a printf, indeed

03:24 < sipa> send a pull request :)

03:25 < jayd3e> cool

03:25 < jayd3e> will do, for brevity sake

04:02 < CodeShark> sorry, my mouse sucks

16:25 < jayd3e> what's the significance of the ampersand before a function name? such as in this line: CChainParams &Params(CBaseChainParams::Network network)

16:25 < jayd3e> from chainparams.cpp

16:26 < sipa> jayd3e: no offence, but this is not the place to learn C++

16:27 < jayd3e> yeah true. I've just been going through the code, and wanted to interact with the community at the same time

16:27 < instagibbs> Googling has been effective for me reading Core code.

16:27 < jayd3e> it's also nice to be able to reference the codebase

21:31 < phantomcircuit> sipa, SetReachable, why the special casing for ipv6/ipv4 ?

21:31 < phantomcircuit> you can potentially be ipv6 w/o ipv4 ... right?

21:43 < sipa> no clue!

21:44 < phantomcircuit> sipa, lol you wrote it

21:45 < phantomcircuit> to be fair it seems you wrote it in 2012
