Send/Donate/Sync/Wizard view models wrote status/error strings
directly in Italian ("Importo non valido.", "Errore: …", the TLS
pin-mismatch message, …), so a user running the app in English/German/
etc. still saw them in Italian despite the 6-language Loc system
covering the rest of the UI.
Added the missing Loc keys and routed every occurrence through
Loc.Tr(...). CertificatePinMismatchException (Core) no longer bakes an
Italian message into .Message; it now exposes Host/Port so the UI can
translate it, with an English fallback for any exception type the UI
doesn't specifically handle. Also drops the now-stale USERGUIDE.md
caveat about a few messages staying in Italian regardless of language.
Previously the server settings overlay had only "Connect and sync" and
"Reset certs" — peer discovery had no button and only ran implicitly
when reopening the dialog while connected. Add a dedicated "Sincronizza"
button wired to DiscoverServersCommand, and make it work even without
an active connection by opening a short-lived connection to a candidate
server just to query its peer list, then closing it without touching
the wallet's connection state.
Extract confirmation-threshold logic into UtxoSpendability (shared by
TransactionFactory and WalletSynchronizer) and use it to compute
ImmatureSats, so coinbase/under-confirmed amounts are shown separately
from spendable balance in the GUI and CLI instead of being lumped into
"confirmed".
When IsSyncing and the user requests a different server, cancel the
running CancellationTokenSource instead of silently ignoring the click.
OperationCanceledException is caught separately (not an error), and
ConnectAndSync restarts automatically with the new server after the
cancelled task unwinds.
The "Connect" button no longer has IsEnabled="{Binding !IsSyncing}":
it is always clickable, and clicking it with the same server sets
_resyncRequested as before. CancellationToken is now passed to both
ElectrumClient.ConnectAsync and WalletSynchronizer.SyncOnceAsync.
- AppConfig stores LastServerHost/Port/UseSsl; restored on next launch
so the wallet reconnects to the last-used server instead of defaulting
to the first bootstrap entry
- Added ConnectionStatusShort for the status bar (short label only);
ConnectionStatus retains the full "Connesso a ip:porta" shown in the
server settings overlay
- Removed TLS checkbox (SSL still used internally, just not exposed in UI)
- Removed "Discover servers" button (discovery now runs automatically on panel open)
- ConnectionStatus now includes host:port when connected ("Connesso a ip:porta")
- Replaced status ellipse+text with a single TextBlock
Translate every Italian /// XML doc comment, <!-- --> XAML comment, and
// inline comment to English across all source files (Core, App, tests).
Add the language policy to CLAUDE.md (conversation Italian; all code
and docs English). Update one test assertion that checked an Italian
exception message that was also translated.
Speed up wallet synchronization, especially re-syncs of large wallets:
- Incremental address discovery: known indices from the previous sync
(NextReceiveIndex/NextChangeIndex) are fetched in a single parallel
burst instead of sequential gap-limit rounds, cutting round-trips from
O(used/gapLimit) to ~O(1). Receive and change chains scan in parallel.
- Merge tx download and Merkle verification into one parallel phase
(no barrier between them); the per-call semaphore is dropped in favor
of the transport-level in-flight gate.
- Persist verified block headers (SyncCache.BlockHeaders, height -> hex):
immutable once stored, so blockchain.block.header round-trips for
already-verified proofs are eliminated on later syncs.
- RetryOnBusyAsync with exponential backoff around server calls, treating
-101/-102 and "server busy"/"excessive resource usage" as transient.
Wire the new PreloadCaches/ExportCaches signatures through the desktop
view model and the CLI sync command.
Three interrelated fixes for sync reliability on large wallets:
1. Prevent -101 "excessive resource usage":
ScanChainAsync uses GetHistoryAsync for discovery instead of
SubscribeScripthashAsync. Subscriptions are limited to the gap window
only (≤ 2×gapLimit addresses), so the session subscription count stays
constant regardless of wallet history size — eliminating -101 on
wallets with 1000+ historical addresses.
2. Persist and resume tx cache across sessions and disconnects:
WalletSynchronizer gains ExportCaches() and PreloadCaches(). On every
successful sync (and on partial failure) the downloaded raw tx hex and
verified Merkle heights are written to SyncCache.RawTxHex/VerifiedAt
in the wallet file. On reconnect or app restart the new synchronizer
is pre-populated from disk so only new transactions are downloaded.
_synchronizer is always nulled on reconnect (new client = new instance)
while caches survive via the wallet file.
3. Auto-connect with multi-server fallback and retry:
ConnectAndSync iterates BuildServerCandidates() (current server first,
then all KnownServers in order) and stops at the first that responds.
_autoReconnect and _syncFailed are set in OpenLoaded() so the keepalive
timer (20 s) retries automatically on any failure — connection error,
-101 mid-download, or timeout. PersistPartialTxCache() saves whatever
was downloaded so each retry resumes from its checkpoint.
Tab bar: replace plain Header strings with icon+label StackPanels
(≡ ↑ ↓ ⊙ ⊕); style TabStrip with UniformGrid so all five tabs share
the full width equally; center content and add touch padding. Icons
are visible only on mobile (IsMobile binding); desktop keeps text only.
Server settings overlay: dual layout for host/port/TLS input (vertical
on mobile: host full-width, port+TLS side by side) and for action
buttons (stacked full-width on mobile). Known-server list item shows
host on one line and tcp/ssl ports on the line below on mobile.
Connection status bar: simplify to "connesso" / "non connesso" —
remove the "a host:port" suffix from the connected state and
consolidate all disconnected/error/cert-changed states to conn.none.
