## dashconsensus
|
|
|
|
The purpose of this library is to make the verification functionality that is critical to Dash's consensus available to other applications, e.g. to language bindings.
|
|
|
|
### API
|
|
|
|
The interface is defined in the C header `dashconsensus.h` located in `src/script/dashconsensus.h`.
|
|
|
|
#### Version
|
|
|
|
`dashconsensus_version` returns an `unsigned int` with the the API version *(currently at an experimental `0`)*.
|
|
|
|
#### Script Validation
|
|
|
|
`dashconsensus_verify_script` returns an `int` with the status of the verification. It will be `1` if the input script correctly spends the previous output `scriptPubKey`.
|
|
|
|
##### Parameters
|
|
- `const unsigned char *scriptPubKey` - The previous output script that encumbers spending.
|
|
- `unsigned int scriptPubKeyLen` - The number of bytes for the `scriptPubKey`.
|
|
- `const unsigned char *txTo` - The transaction with the input that is spending the previous output.
|
|
- `unsigned int txToLen` - The number of bytes for the `txTo`.
|
|
- `unsigned int nIn` - The index of the input in `txTo` that spends the `scriptPubKey`.
|
|
- `unsigned int flags` - The script validation flags *(see below)*.
|
|
- `dashconsensus_error* err` - Will have the error/success code for the operation *(see below)*.
|
|
|
|
##### Script Flags
|
|
- `dashconsensus_SCRIPT_FLAGS_VERIFY_NONE`
|
|
- `dashconsensus_SCRIPT_FLAGS_VERIFY_P2SH` - Evaluate P2SH ([BIP16](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0016.mediawiki)) subscripts
|
|
- `dashconsensus_SCRIPT_FLAGS_VERIFY_DERSIG` - Enforce strict DER ([BIP66](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0066.mediawiki)) compliance
|
|
|
|
##### Errors
|
|
- `dashconsensus_ERR_OK` - No errors with input parameters *(see the return value of `dashconsensus_verify_script` for the verification status)*
|
|
- `dashconsensus_ERR_TX_INDEX` - An invalid index for `txTo`
|
|
- `dashconsensus_ERR_TX_SIZE_MISMATCH` - `txToLen` did not match with the size of `txTo`
|
|
- `dashconsensus_ERR_DESERIALIZE` - An error deserializing `txTo`
|
|
|
