create bootstrap.dat from bitcoin-qt's blk0000?.dat files

bootstrap.cpp

// g++ UniversalTimer.o BinaryData.o FileDataPtr.o BtcUtils.o BlockObj.o BlockUtils.o libcryptopp.a -o bootstrap.out -Icryptopp -DUSE_CRYPTOPP -D__STDC_LIMIT_MACROS -lpthread bootstrap.cpp

#include "BlockUtils.h"

int main(void)

	string btcdir("/home/chris/.bitcoin");
	string bootstrap(btcdir + "/" + "bootstrap.dat");
	BlockDataManager_FileRefs::GetInstance().SelectNetwork("Main");
	BlockDataManager_FileRefs & bdm = BlockDataManager_FileRefs::GetInstance(); 
	BinaryData magic = bdm.getMagicBytes();
	ofstream os;

//	bdm.SetBlkFileLocation(btcdir, 4, 1);				// 4 digit blk0001.dat from 0.7.x
	bdm.SetBlkFileLocation(btcdir + "/blocks", 5, 0);	// 5 digit blocks/blk00000.dat from 0.8.x
	bdm.parseEntireBlockchain();  

	os.open(bootstrap.c_str(), ios::out | ios::binary);
	for (uint32_t i=0; i<=216116; i++) {
		BlockHeader * bhp = bdm.getHeaderByHeight(i);
		os.write( bhp->serializeWholeBlock(magic, true).toBinStr().c_str(), bhp->getBlockSize()+8);
	}
	os.close();
}

git clone git://github.com/etotheipi/BitcoinArmory.git
build it
put the above into cppForSwig/bootstrap.cpp
edit btcdir to match the location of your bitcoin directory
build using the same flags as for BlockUtilsTest.out
