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.
C# pushes value and key to the stack of non-serialized items, so key gets
serialized first followed by value. Fixes#806.
Notice though that neither IDictionary in C#, nor map in Go have elements
ordered, so we can easily get a difference in KV pairs order and it would be
impossible to fix.
Seeing some
blockQueue: failed adding block into the blockchain {"error": "failed to store notifications: not supported", "blockHeight": 713984, "nextIndex": 713985}
in logs is not very helpful.
go vet is not happy about them:
pkg/io/binaryReader.go:92:21: method ReadByte() byte should have signature ReadByte() (byte, error)
pkg/io/binaryWriter.go:75:21: method WriteByte(u8 byte) should have signature WriteByte(byte) error
This seriously improves the serialization/deserialization performance for
several reasons:
* no time spent in `binary` reflection
* no memory allocations being made on every read/write
* uses fast ReadBytes everywhere it's appropriate
It also makes Fixed8 Serializable just for convenience.
Before this patch on block import we could easily be spending more than 6
seconds out of 30 in Uint256 encoding for UnspentBalance, now it's completely
off the radar.
When encountering already seen stack item we should fail
only if it is a collection. Duplicate Integers or ByteArrays are ok
because they can't lead to recursion.
