Describe the issue
I added a second new wallet2.dat. Now I wanted to encrypt it, but bitcoin-cli help
does not show the command to do so, I need to use bitcoin-cli -rpcwallet=wallet2.dat help
. This is very un-intuitive, and bad for a help function.
Can you reliably reproduce the issue?
- have an encrypted default wallet
- add new multi wallet wallet2.dat via config file or cmd line options
- naive
bitcoin-cli help
does not show command to encrypt second wallet.
Expected behaviour
All wallet encryption, lock and unlock commands should be shown unconditionally in bitcoin-cli help
.
The dynamic hiding of some lines is arguably worse than the benefit with multiple wallets.
Actual behaviour
bitcoin-cli help
shows only wallet encryption commands appropriate for the default wallet.
