iMerkleBlock

interface iMerkleBlock : iBlockHeader

A "Merkle block" is a block object that does not include every transaction in the block. Instead it includes merkle proofs of the transactions it contains.

Properties

abstract var chainWork: BigInteger

abstract var diffBits: Long

abstract val hash: Hash256

Return this block's hash. Uses a cached value if one exists. If you change the block be sure to call calcHash() or invalidateHash() to update this value either greedily or lazily respectively

abstract var hashAncestor: Hash256

abstract var hashMerkleRoot: Hash256

abstract var hashPrevBlock: Hash256

abstract var height: Long

abstract var size: Long

abstract var time: Long

abstract var txCount: Long

abstract val txes: MutableList<out iTransaction>

abstract val txHashes: MutableSet<Hash256>

open val work: BigInteger

Functions

abstract fun BCHdeserialize(stream: BCHserialized): BCHserialized

abstract fun BCHserialize(format: SerializationType = SerializationType.UNKNOWN): BCHserialized

abstract fun calcHash(): Hash256

Force recalculation of hash. To access the hash just use #hash, to force recalc call "changed()"

abstract fun changed()

Communicate that this object has been changed, so recalculation of cached data is needed

abstract fun close()

abstract fun complete(): Boolean

open fun serialize(stream: BCHserialized): BCHserialized

open fun toByteArray(format: SerializationType = SerializationType.UNKNOWN): ByteArray

abstract fun txArrived(tx: iTransaction): Boolean

abstract fun validate(cs: ChainSelector): Boolean

run checks (such as verifying POW claim) & return true if the block header is consistent
