One last thing
This PR adds some helper methods to deal with ABI encoding/decoding.
In particular I've renamed
convert
toencode_params
while keeping backward compatibility, and I've addeddecode_params
,encode_function_call
andencode_function_call_abi
functions.This functions can be used to encode a contract function call and its parameter when the function prototype is known or when the ABI is available.
I've also added a new test for this functionality in the
tests/test_evm.py
. The relevant lines from 126 to 137 highlight the new feature.Moreover I've fixed the display of the Stack in the EVM debugger.
When the stack was greater than 8, only the first 8 rows were displayed. Moreover the stack was growing top to bottom.
Now the stack displays the last 8 rows (the most recent and relevant ones) and grows bottom to top.
This can be tested with the following snippet as shown in the screenshot below:
