Struct BlockHeader

Block header containing information about Block<T>s except transactions.

Namespace: Libplanet.Blocks

Assembly: Libplanet.dll

Syntax

public struct BlockHeader

Constructors

BlockHeader(Bencodex.Types.Dictionary)

Declaration

public BlockHeader(Bencodex.Types.Dictionary dict)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
Bencodex.Types.Dictionary	dict

BlockHeader(Int64, String, ImmutableArray<Byte>, ImmutableArray<Byte>, Int64, BigInteger, ImmutableArray<Byte>, ImmutableArray<Byte>, ImmutableArray<Byte>, ImmutableArray<Byte>, ImmutableArray<Byte>)

Creates a BlockHeader instance.

Declaration

public BlockHeader(long index, string timestamp, ImmutableArray<byte> nonce, ImmutableArray<byte> miner, long difficulty, BigInteger totalDifficulty, ImmutableArray<byte> previousHash, ImmutableArray<byte> txHash, ImmutableArray<byte> hash, ImmutableArray<byte> preEvaluationHash, ImmutableArray<byte> stateRootHash)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
Int64	index	The height of the block. Goes to the Index.
String	timestamp	The time this block is created. Goes to the Timestamp.
ImmutableArray<Byte>	nonce	The nonce which satisfy the given difficulty with any other field values. Goes to the Nonce.
ImmutableArray<Byte>	miner	An optional address refers to who mines this block. Goes to the Miner.
Int64	difficulty	The mining difficulty that nonce has to satisfy. Goes to the Difficulty.
BigInteger	totalDifficulty	The total mining difficulty until this block. See also Difficulty.
ImmutableArray<Byte>	previousHash	The previous block's Hash. If it's a genesis block (i.e., index is 0) this should be null. Goes to the PreviousHash.
ImmutableArray<Byte>	txHash	The result of hashing the transactions the block has. Goes to the TxHash.
ImmutableArray<Byte>	hash	The hash of the Block<T>. Goes to the Hash.
ImmutableArray<Byte>	preEvaluationHash	The hash derived from the block except of stateRootHash (i.e., without action evaluation). Used for Libplanet.Blocks.BlockHeader.Validate(DateTimeOffset) checking nonce.
ImmutableArray<Byte>	stateRootHash	The Hash of the states on the block.
