Important Notes
Shielded pool removal
-
PR #628 implements ZenIP-42207, which introduces a hard fork fully disabling the shielded pool from
zend. After the hard fork, it will no longer be possible to submit and process transactions involving shielded (z-) addresses, thus transparent-to-shielded, shielded-to-shielded and shielded-to-transparent transactions will be completely disallowed. -
PR #628 as a consequence of ZenIP-42207, the following RPC commands
z_sendmanyz_mergetoaddress
have been partially disabled, as after the hard fork they are only allowed to submit transparent-to-transparent transactions (check inline documentation for additional details).
Bugfixes and Minor Changes
- All the RPC commands interacting with the shielded pool - hence, all the RPC commands starting with
z_orzc_(for instancez_getbalanaceorzc_raw_joinsplit) - are now deprecated; a warning message has been included in the help body of these commands #628 - Fix for build error on recent compilers, including gcc v13 and clang v14, and with recent glibc (version 2.36); alignment of compiler optimization flags on clang and gcc on Linux #629
