- Added a new Invariant: `ValidPseudoAccounts` which checks that all pseudo-accounts behave consistently through creation and updates, and that no "real" accounts look like pseudo-accounts (which means they don't have a 0 sequence).
- `to_short_string(base_uint)`. Like `to_string`, but only returns the first 8 characters. (Similar to how a git commit ID can be abbreviated.) Used as a wrapped sink to prefix most transaction-related messages. More can be added later.
- `XRPL_ASSERT_PARTS`. Convenience wrapper for `XRPL_ASSERT`, which takes the `function` and `description` as separate parameters.
- `SField::sMD_PseudoAccount`. Metadata option for `SField` definitions to indicate that the field, if set in an `AccountRoot` indicates that account is a pseudo-account. Removes the need for hard-coded field lists all over the place. Added the flag to `AMMID` and `VaultID`.
- Added functionality to `SField` ctor to detect both code and name collisions using asserts. And require all SFields to have a name
- Convenience type aliases `STLedgerEntry::const_pointer` and `STLedgerEntry::const_ref`. (`SLE` is an alias to `STLedgerEntry`.)
- Generalized `feeunit.h` (`TaggedFee`) into `unit.h` (`ValueUnit`) and added new "BIPS"-related tags for future use. Also refactored the type restrictions to use Concepts.
- Restructured `transactions.macro` to do two big things
1. Include the `#include` directives for transactor header files directly in the macro file. Removes the need to update `applySteps.cpp` and the resulting conflicts.
2. Added a `privileges` parameter to the `TRANSACTION` macro, which specifies some of the operations a transaction is allowed to do. These `privileges` are enforced by invariant checks. Again, removed the need to update scattered lists of transaction types in various checks.
- Unit tests:
1. Moved more helper functions into `TestHelpers.h` and `.cpp`.
2. Cleaned up the namespaces to prevent / mitigate random collisions and ambiguous symbols, particularly in unity builds.
3. Generalized `Env::balance` to add support for `MPTIssue` and `Asset`.
4. Added a set of helper classes to simplify `Env` transaction parameter classes: `JTxField`, `JTxFieldWrapper`, and a bunch of classes derived or aliased from it. For an example of how awesome it is, check the changes `src/test/jtx/escrow.h` for how much simpler the definitions are for `finish_time`, `cancel_time`, `condition`, and `fulfillment`.
5. Generalized several of the amount-related helper classes to understand `Asset`s.
6. `env.balance` for an MPT issuer will return a negative number (or 0) for consistency with IOUs.
protocol
Classes and functions for handling data and values associated with the XRP Ledger protocol.
Serialized Objects
Objects transmitted over the network must be serialized into a canonical format. The prefix "ST" refers to classes that deal with the serialized format.
The term "Tx" or "tx" is an abbreviation for "Transaction", a commonly occurring object type.
Optional Fields
Our serialized fields have some "type magic" to make optional fields easier to read:
- The operation
x[sfFoo]means "return the value of 'Foo' if it exists, or the default value if it doesn't." - The operation
x[~sfFoo]means "return the value of 'Foo' if it exists, or nothing if it doesn't." This usage of the tilde/bitwise NOT operator is not standard outside of therippledcodebase.- As a consequence of this,
x[~sfFoo] = y[~sfFoo]assigns the value of Foo from y to x, including omitting Foo from x if it doesn't exist in y.
- As a consequence of this,
Typically, for things that are guaranteed to exist, you use
x[sfFoo] and avoid having to deal with a container that may
or may not hold a value. For things not guaranteed to exist,
you use x[~sfFoo] because you want such a container. It
avoids having to look something up twice, once just to see if
it exists and a second time to get/set its value.
(Real example)
The source of this "type magic" is in SField.h.
