BlockHeader(Int64, String, ImmutableArray<Byte>, ImmutableArray<Byte>, Int64, 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, ImmutableArray<byte> previousHash, ImmutableArray<byte> txHash, ImmutableArray<byte> hash)
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.
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.
