The Contract Application Binary Interface (ABI) is the standard way to interact with contracts in the Ethereum ecosystem, both
|

from outside the blockchain and for contract-to-contract interaction. Data is encoded according to its type,
|
||||
as described in this specification. The encoding is not self describing and thus requires a schema in order to decode.

We assume the interface functions of a contract are strongly typed, known at compilation time and static. We assume that all contracts will have the interface definitions of any contracts they call available at compile-time.

The encoding is designed to have the following properties, which are especially useful if some arguments are nested arrays:

|
||||
1. The number of reads necessary to access a value is at most the depth of the value inside the argument array structure, i.e. four reads are needed to retrieve ``a_i[k][l][r]``. In a previous version of the ABI, the number of reads scaled linearly with the total number of dynamic parameters in the worst case.

Events
|

======
|
||||
|
||||
Events are an abstraction of the Ethereum logging/event-watching protocol. Log entries provide the contract's address, a series of up to four topics and some arbitrary length binary data. Events leverage the existing function ABI in order to interpret this (together with an interface spec) as a properly typed structure.

|
||||
ABI in order to interpret this (together with an interface spec) as a properly typed structure.
|
||||
|
||||
Given an event name and series of event parameters, we split them into two sub-series: those which are indexed and those which are not. Those which are indexed, which may number up to 3, are used alongside the Keccak hash of the event signature to form the topics of the log entry. Those which are not indexed form the byte array of the event.

|

In effect, a log entry using this ABI is described as:
|
||||
|
||||
- ``address``: the address of the contract (intrinsically provided by Ethereum);
|
||||
- ``topics[0]``: ``keccak(EVENT_NAME+"("+EVENT_ARGS.map(canonical_type_of).join(",")+")")`` (``canonical_type_of`` is a function that simply returns the canonical type of a given argument, e.g. for ``uint indexed foo``, it would return ``uint256``). If the event is declared as ``anonymous`` the ``topics[0]`` is not generated;
|
||||
- ``topics[n]``: ``abi_encode(EVENT_INDEXED_ARGS[n - 1])`` (``EVENT_INDEXED_ARGS`` is the series of ``EVENT_ARGS`` that are indexed);
|
||||
- ``data``: ABI encoding of ``EVENT_NON_INDEXED_ARGS`` (``EVENT_NON_INDEXED_ARGS`` is the series of ``EVENT_ARGS`` that are not indexed, ``abi_encode`` is the ABI encoding function used for returning a series of typed values from a function, as described above).
|
||||
- ``topics[0]``: ``keccak(EVENT_NAME+"("+EVENT_ARGS.map(canonical_type_of).join(",")+")")`` (``canonical_type_of``
|
||||
is a function that simply returns the canonical type of a given argument, e.g. for ``uint indexed foo``, it would
|
||||
return ``uint256``). If the event is declared as ``anonymous`` the ``topics[0]`` is not generated;
|
||||
- ``topics[n]``: ``abi_encode(EVENT_INDEXED_ARGS[n - 1])`` (``EVENT_INDEXED_ARGS`` is the series of ``EVENT_ARGS``
|
||||
that are indexed);
|
||||
- ``data``: ABI encoding of ``EVENT_NON_INDEXED_ARGS`` (``EVENT_NON_INDEXED_ARGS`` is the series of ``EVENT_ARGS``
|
||||
that are not indexed, ``abi_encode`` is the ABI encoding function used for returning a series of typed values
|
||||
from a function, as described above).
|
||||
|
||||
For all types of length at most 32 bytes, the ``EVENT_INDEXED_ARGS`` array contains
|
||||
the value directly, padded or sign-extended (for signed integers) to 32 bytes, just as for regular ABI encoding.
