Compatibility
|
||||
==============
|
||||
|
||||
Microsoft ended support for Windows XP on [April 8th, 2014](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/WindowsForBusiness/end-of-xp-support),
|
||||
an OS initially released in 2001. This means that not even critical security
|
||||
updates will be released anymore. Without security updates, using a bitcoin
|
||||
wallet on a XP machine is irresponsible at least.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to that, with 0.12.x there have been varied reports of Bitcoin Core
|
||||
randomly crashing on Windows XP. It is [not clear](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/7681#issuecomment-217439891)
|
||||
what the source of these crashes is, but it is likely that upstream
|
||||
libraries such as Qt are no longer being tested on XP.
|
||||
|
||||
We do not have time nor resources to provide support for an OS that is
|
||||
end-of-life. From 0.13.0 on, Windows XP is no longer supported. Users are
|
||||
suggested to upgrade to a newer version of Windows, or install an alternative OS
|
||||
that is supported.
|
||||
|
||||
No attempt is made to prevent installing or running the software on Windows XP,
|
||||
you can still do so at your own risk, but do not expect it to work: do not
|
||||
report issues about Windows XP to the issue tracker.
|
||||
|
||||
From 0.13.1 onwards OS X 10.7 is no longer supported. 0.13.0 was intended to work on 10.7+,
|
||||
but severe issues with the libc++ version on 10.7.x keep it from running reliably.
|
||||
0.13.1 now requires 10.8+, and will communicate that to 10.7 users, rather than crashing unexpectedly.
|
||||
|
||||
Notable changes
|
||||
===============
|
||||
|
||||
Change to wallet handling of mempool rejection
|
||||
-----------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
When a newly created transaction failed to enter the mempool due to
|
||||
the limits on chains of unconfirmed transactions the sending RPC
|
||||
calls would return an error. The transaction would still be queued
|
||||
in the wallet and, once some of the parent transactions were
|
||||
confirmed, broadcast after the software was restarted.
|
||||
|
||||
This behavior has been changed to return success and to reattempt
|
||||
mempool insertion at the same time transaction rebroadcast is
|
||||
attempted, avoiding a need for a restart.
|
||||
|
||||
Transactions in the wallet which cannot be accepted into the mempool
|
||||
can be abandoned with the previously existing abandontransaction RPC
|
||||
(or in the GUI via a context menu on the transaction).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
