Layout of Call Data
|
|
*******************
|
|
|
|
The input data for a function call is assumed to be in the format defined by the :ref:`ABI
|
|
specification <ABI>`. Among others, the ABI specification requires arguments to be padded to multiples of 32
|
|
bytes. The internal function calls use a different convention.
|
|
|
|
Arguments for the constructor of a contract are directly appended at the end of the
|
|
contract's code, also in ABI encoding. The constructor will access them through a hard-coded offset, and
|
|
not by using the ``codesize`` opcode, since this of course changes when appending
|
|
data to the code.
