Previously we could generate dynamic appcall with a kludge of
AppCall([]byte{/* 20 zeroes */, realScriptHash, args...)
Now there is a separate function for this.
This syscall should only work for contracts created by current transaction and
that is what is supposed to be checked here. Do so by looking at the
differences between ic.dao and original lower DAO.
Our block.Block was JSONized in a bit different fashion than result.Block in
its Nonce and NextConsensus fields. It's not good for notifications because
third-party clients would probably expect to see the same format. Also, using
completely different Block representation in result is probably making our
client a bit weaker as this representation is harder to use with other neo-go
components.
So use the same approach we took for Transactions and wrap block.Base which is
to be serialized in proper way.
Getting batch, updating Prometheus metrics and pushing events doesn't require
any locking: batch is a local cache batch that no one outside cares about,
Prometheus metrics are not critical to be in perfect sync and events are
asynchronous anyway.
Note that the protocol differs a bit from #895 in its notifications format,
to avoid additional server-side processing we're omitting some metadata like:
* block size and confirmations
* transaction fees, confirmations, block hash and timestamp
* application execution doesn't have ScriptHash populated
Some block fields may also differ in encoding compared to `getblock` results
(like nonce field).
I think these differences are unnoticieable for most use cases, so we can
leave them as is, but it can be changed in the future.
We actually have to do that in order to answer getapplicationlog requests for
transactions that leave some interop items on the stack. It follows the same
logic our binary serializer/deserializes does leaving the type and stripping
the value (whatever that is).
It will be important for proper subscription testing and it doesn't hurt even
though technically we've got two http servers listening after this change (one
is a regular Server's http.Server and one is httptest's Server). Reusing
rpc.Server would be nice, but it requires some changes to Start sequence to
start Listener with net.Listen and then communicate back its resulting
Addr. It's not very convenient especially given that no other code needs it,
so doing these changes just for a bit cleaner testing seems like and
overkill.
Update config appropriately. Update Start comment along the way.
Get new blocks directly from the Blockchain. It may lead to some duplications
(as we'll also receive our own blocks), but at the same time it's more
correct, because technically we can also get blocks via other means besides
network server like RPC (submitblock call). And it simplifies network server
at the same time.
A part of integration with NEO Blockchain Toolkit (see #902). To be
able to deploy smart-contract compiled with neo-go compiler via NEO
Express, we have to generate additional .abi.json file. This file
contains the following information:
- hash of the compiled contract
- smart-contract metadata (title, description, version, author,
email, has-storage, has-dynamic-invoke, is-payable)
- smart-contract entry point
- functions
- events
However, this .abi.json file is slightly different from the one,
described in manifest.go, so we have to add auxilaury stractures for
json marshalling. The .abi.json format used by NEO-Express is described
[here](https://github.com/neo-project/neo-devpack-dotnet/blob/master/src/Neo.Compiler.MSIL/FuncExport.cs#L66).
Method `methodInfoFromScope(...)` always returned an empty parameters
set, so we were missing this information in both .abi.json and
.debug.json files. Fixed now.
Sequence points is a way to map a specific instruction offset
from a compiled contract to a text span in a source file.
This commit implements mapping only for `return` statements.
Further improvements are straight-forward.
There's a bug after #785: smartcontract.Parameter of type hash160 should
be marshalled in LE (as default marshaller for uint160 does) instead of
BE, so fixed.
Which makes iterating over map stable which is important for serialization and
and even fixes occasional test failures. We use the same ordering here as
NEO 3.0 uses, but it should also be fine for NEO 2.0 because it has no
defined order.
Fixes#809.
Basically, there are three alternative approaches to fixing it:
* allowing both []byte and string for ByteArrayType value
minimal invasion into existing code, but ugly as hell and will probably
backfire at some point
* storing string values in ByteArrayType
incurs quite a number of type conversions (and associated data copying),
though note that these values are not changed usually, so dynamic
properties of []byte are almost irrelevant here
* storing only []byte values in ByteArrayType
makes it impossible to use them as map keys which can be solved in several
ways:
- via an interface (Marshalable)
which is good, but makes testing and comparing values in general harder,
because of keys mismatch
- using serialized Parameter as a key (in a string)
which will need some additional marshaling/unmarshaling
- converting MapType from map to a slice of key-value pairs
not a bad idea as we don't use this map as a map really, the type
itself is all about input/output for real VM types and this approach is
also a bit closer to JSON representation of the Map
