- Add serialize::Error::ParseFailed(&'static str) variant for
serialization errors without context
- Add appropriate variants to replace network::Error::Detail for
serialization error with context
- Remove error method from SimpleDecoders
- Separate serialize::Error and network::Error from util::Error
- Remove unneeded propagate_err and consume_err
- Change fuzzing code to ignore Err type
Previously this structure was unused, it's now being used by the `TxIn`
structure to simplify the code a little bit and avoid confusions. Also
the rust-lightning source code has an `OutPoint` similar to this one
but with the `vout` index as an `u16` to avoid unsafe conversions.
I've added to new methods to `OutPoint`:
- `null`: Creates a new "null" `OutPoint`.
- `is_null`: Checks if the given `OutPoint` is null.

The `serde_struct_impl!` macro has been modified to be compatible
with the serde 1.0 crate, we use this macro and not the `serde_derive`
crate because the latter doesn't support Rust 1.14.0 which is shipped
on Debian stable and we should remain compatible with it.
Two new features were added:
- "serde": enables serialization/deserialization for common types, it pulls
the serde 1.0 dependency.
- "serde-decimal": enables serialization/deserialization for `UDecimal`/`Decimal`,
this pulls the strason 0.4 depdendency and the serde 1.0 dependency.

Addresses #96.
Turns out it was being used for hex encoding/decoding, so replaced that with the `hex` crate.
i chose to import the `decode` method as:
```
use hex::decode as hex_decode
```
so that it is clear to the reader what is being decoded when it is called. "decode" is such a generic sounding function name that it would get confusing otherwise.
This is a rather large breaking API change, but is significantly
more sensible. In the "do not allow internal representation to
represent an invalid state" category, this ensures that witness
cannot have an length other than the number of inputs. Further,
it reduces vec propagation, which may help performance in some
cases by reducing allocs. Fianlly, this just makes more sense (tm).
Witness are a per-input field like the scriptSig, placing them
outside of the TxIn is just where they are serialized, not where
they logically belong.
This is needed to for a sane BIP143 implementation. Should be exactly equivalent to
serializing data into a vector then hashing that vector for all types.
This code was unmaintained, is unlikely to work on the majority of systems
(since it holds the whole utxoset in RAM, and not in a terribly efficient
manner), and has a dependency on `eventual` which has been broken for a
long time.
The library no longer compiles on nightly because of this, and without any
known usecases for `UtxoSet`, nor good ability to test it, I'm simply
removing the code.
I recommend anyone who cares about this extracts the code from the previous
commit and creates a new crate. It should be more featureful anyway, e.g.
support a backing store.
This is just a convenience type for the (txid, vout) pairs that get produced
a lot in Bitcoin code. To the best of my knowledge there is nowhere this can
be used in the actual library (in particular, TxOutRef.index is a usize for
convenience while TxIn.prev_index is a u32 for correct consensus encoding,
so there is not redundancy here).
Breaking changes are:
opcode::All::from_u8 is now From<u8>
script::Builder::from_vec is now From<Vec<u8>>
script::Script::from_vec is now From<Vec<u8>>
Work is stalled on some other library work (to give better lifetime
requirements on `eventual::Future` and avoid some unsafety), so
committing here.
There are only three errors left in this round :)
Also all the indenting is done, so there should be no more massive
rewrite commits. Depending how invasive the lifetime-error fixes
are, I may even be able to do sanely sized commits from here on.
27 files changed, 3944 insertions(+), 3812 deletions(-) :} I've
started doing whitespace changes as well, I want everything to
be 4-space tabs from now on.
BTW after all this is done I'm gonna indent the entire codebase...
so `git blame` is gonna be totally broken anyway, hence my
capricious cadence of commits.
Will take some experimentation to see if this is what I want the API
to be, if the memory usage is acceptable, etc.
This will force a total reindex for wizards-wallet users.
[breaking-change]
Sorry, this is needed to enable proper txid/vout lookups for the address index.
This means any users of wizards-wallet need to rebuild their utxo sets, and
will also mean an increase in RAM usage.
I noticed that the little/big endian hex string functions for Sha256dHash
did not match my intuition. What we should have is that the raw bytes
correspond to a little-endian representation (since we convert to Uint256
by transmuting, and Uint256's have little-endian representation) while
the reversed raw bytes are big-endian.
This means that the output from `sha256sum` is "little-endian", while the
standard "zeros on the left" output from bitcoind is "big-endian". This
is correct since we think of blockhashes as being "below the target" when
they have lots of zeros on the left, and we also notice that when hashing
Bitcoin objects with sha256sum that the output hashes are always reversed.
These two functions le_hex_string and be_hex_string should really not be
used outside of the library; the Encodable trait should give access to a
"big endian" representation while ConsensusEncodable gives access to a
"little endian" representation. That way we describe the split in terms
of user-facing/consensus code rather than big/little endian code, which
is a better way of thinking about it. After all, a hash is a collection
of bytes, not a number --- it doesn't have an intrinsic endianness.
Oh, and by the way, to compute a sha256d hash from sha256sum, you do
echo -n 'data' | sha256sum | xxd -r -p | sha256dsum
This is a massive simplification, fixes a couple endianness bugs (though
not all of them I don't think), should give a speedup, gets rid of the
`serialize_iter` crap.
We were conflicting with the Rust stdlib trait Hash, which is used
by various datastructures which need a general hash. Also implement
Hash for Sha256dHash so that we can use bitcoin hashes as keys for
such data structures.
