Fix integer overflow with displayed nonce #1297
Fix integer overflow with displayed nonce #1297
Conversation
univalue should support uint64_t so the conversion to int to begin with should of not been necessary. . test without the (uint64_t) and see if it u get the correct result. nNonce is a unsigned int as well |
I think it should not be cast at all. The nonce is an unsigned int which should be handled by univalue. |
i've done testing and UniValue still does not support unsigned int alone so leave it at uint64_t will make an issue for someone to take on as i've noticed quite a few areas we no longer need casting with latest UniValue |
I second that this should be handled by univalue, but it is not. |
we maybe should consider putting a PR up to UniValue repo. https://github.com/jgarzik/univalue the version is up to 1.0.4 currently but not seeing anything that addresses this kind of issue. bitcoin still on 1.0.3 and we are as well |

This fixes an integer overflow where many of the early PoW blocks nonces are displayed as negative.
For example, the nonce for testnet block number 2 is currently displayed as -238944000 but with the fix it is displayed as 4056023296.
Note this is only a display issue affecting
