* accounts/abi/bind: support for multi-dim arrays
Also:
- reduce usage of regexes a bit.
- fix minor Java syntax problems
Fixes#15648
* accounts/abi/bind: Add some more documentation
* accounts/abi/bind: Improve code readability
* accounts/abi: bugfix for unpacking nested arrays
The code previously assumed the arrays/slices were always 1 level
deep. While the packing supports nested arrays (!!!).
The current code for unpacking doesn't return the "consumed" length, so
this fix had to work around that by calculating it (i.e. packing and
getting resulting length) after the unpacking of the array element.
It's far from ideal, but unpacking behaviour is fixed now.
* accounts/abi: Fix unpacking of nested arrays
Removed the temporary workaround of packing to calculate size, which was
incorrect for slice-like types anyway.
Full size of nested arrays is used now.
* accounts/abi: deeply nested array unpack test
Test unpacking of an array nested more than one level.
* accounts/abi: Add deeply nested array pack test
Same as the deep nested array unpack test, but the other way around.
* accounts/abi/bind: deeply nested arrays bind test
Test the usage of bindings that were generated
for methods with multi-dimensional (and not
just a single extra dimension, like foo[2][3])
array arguments and returns.
edit: trigger rebuild, CI failed to fetch linter module.
* accounts/abi/bind: improve array binding
wrapArray uses a regex now, and arrayBindingJava is improved.
* accounts/abi: Improve naming of element size func
The full step size for unpacking an array
is now retrieved with "getFullElemSize".
* accounts/abi: support nested nested array args
Previously, the code only considered the outer-size of the array,
ignoring the size of the contents. This was fine for most types,
but nested arrays are packed directly into it, and count towards
the total size. This resulted in arguments following a nested
array to replicate some of the binary contents of the array.
The fix: for arrays, calculate their complete contents size:
count the arg.Type.Elem.Size when Elem is an Array, and
repeat when their child is an array too, etc.
The count is the number of 32 byte elements, similar to how it
previously counted, but nested.
* accounts/abi: Test deep nested arr multi-arguments
Arguments with a deeply nested array should not cause the next arguments
to be read from the wrong position.
This commit solves several issues concerning the genesis block:
* Genesis/ChainConfig loading was handled by cmd/geth code. This left
library users in the cold. They could specify a JSON-encoded
string and overwrite the config, but didn't get any of the additional
checks performed by geth.
* Decoding and writing of genesis JSON was conflated in
WriteGenesisBlock. This made it a lot harder to embed the genesis
block into the forthcoming config file loader. This commit changes
things so there is a single Genesis type that represents genesis
blocks. All uses of Write*Genesis* are changed to use the new type
instead.
* If the chain config supplied by the user was incompatible with the
current chain (i.e. the chain had already advanced beyond a scheduled
fork), it got overwritten. This is not an issue in practice because
previous forks have always had the highest total difficulty. It might
matter in the future though. The new code reverts the local chain to
the point of the fork when upgrading configuration.
The change to genesis block data removes compression library
dependencies from package core.
Gas estimation currently mostly works, but can underestimate for more funky
refunds. This is because various ops (e.g. CALL) need more gas to run than they
actually consume (e.g. 2300 stipend that is refunded if not used). With more
intricate contract interplays, it becomes almost impossible to return a proper
value to the user.
This commit swaps out the simplistic gas estimation to a binary search approach,
honing in on the correct gas use. This does mean that gas estimation needs to
rerun the transaction log(max-price) times to measure whether it fails or not,
but it's a price paid by the transaction issuer, and it should be worth it to
support proper estimates.
The remote backend is superseded by ethclient.
The nil backend's stated purpose was to enable testing of
accounts/abi/bind. None of its methods actually worked. A much simpler
way to get a crashing backend is to simply pass nil as the backend. With
a one-line change to the generator (removing two explicit interface
assertions), passing nil actually works.
Removing these backends means that less changes are required later.
The account management API was originally implemented as a thin layer
around crypto.KeyStore, on the grounds that several kinds of key stores
would be implemented later on. It turns out that this won't happen so
KeyStore is a superflous abstraction.
In this commit crypto.KeyStore and everything related to it moves to
package accounts and is unexported.
