*MSRV unchanged from 1.29.0.*
When `std` is off, `no-std` must be on, and we use the [`alloc`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/alloc/) and core2 crates. The `alloc` crate requires the user define a global allocator.
* Import from `core` and `alloc` instead of `std`
* `alloc` only used if `no-std` is on
* Create `std` feature
* Create `no-std` feature which adds a core2 dependency to polyfill `std::io` features. This is an experimental feature and should be
used with caution.
* CI runs tests `no-std`
* MSRV for `no-std` is 1.51 or so
This introduces some constants defined by Bitcoin Core which as a
consequence define some network rules in a new 'policy' module.
Only some were picked, which are very unlikely to change. Nonetheless a
Warning has been put in the module documentation.
Script-level constants are left into rust-miniscript where they are
already defined (src/miniscript/limits.rs).
Taking an external dependency just to convert ints to byte arrays
is somewhat of a waste, especially when Rust isn't very aggressive
about doing cross-crate LTO.
Note that the latest LLVM pattern-matches this, and while I haven't
tested it, that should mean this means no loss of optimization.
This is a port of the bitcoin-core CPartialMerkleTree and CMerkleBlock classes.
Here they are called PartialMerkleTree and MerkleBlock.
These are useful for SPV clients that wish to verify that a transaction is
present in a specific block in an authenticated way.
Because features and dependencies share the same namespace, and we want
to pass down the optional dependence on serde to bitcoin_hashes, we need
to rename the feature to something other than serde. Right now only
features can be passed down to dependencies.
Note that we could have also renamed the dependency to something like
serde-dep and kept the same feature name, however, dependency renaming
has only been available since cargo 0.27.0
Features that represent optional dependencies have been prefixed with
'use-'. The travis file has also been modified to conform to this
change.
- Move network::encodable::* to consensus::encode::*
- Rename Consensus{En,De}codable to {En,De}codable (now under
consensus::encode)
- Move network::serialize::Error to consensus::encode::Error
- Remove Raw{En,De}coder, implement {En,De}coder for T: {Write,Read}
instead
- Move network::serialize::Simple{En,De}coder to
consensus::encode::{En,De}coder
- Rename util::Error::Serialize to util::Error::Encode
- Modify comments to refer to new names
- Modify files to refer to new names
- Expose {En,De}cod{able,er}, {de,}serialize, Params
- Do not return Result for serialize{,_hex} as serializing to a Vec
should never fail
