* Moved `vm.Transfer` to `core` package and changed execution to call
`env.Transfer` instead of `core.Transfer` directly.
* core/vm: byte code VM moved to jump table instead of switch
* Moved `vm.Transfer` to `core` package and changed execution to call
`env.Transfer` instead of `core.Transfer` directly.
* Byte code VM now shares the same code as the JITVM
* Renamed Context to Contract
* Changed initialiser of state transition & unexported methods
* Removed the Execution object and refactor `Call`, `CallCode` &
`Create` in to their own functions instead of being methods.
* Removed the hard dep on the state for the VM. The VM now
depends on a Database interface returned by the environment. In the
process the core now depends less on the statedb by usage of the env
* Moved `Log` from package `core/state` to package `core/vm`.
Moved the filtering system from `event` to `eth/filters` package and
removed the `core.Filter` object. The `filters.Filter` object now
requires a `common.Database` rather than a `eth.Backend` and invokes the
`core.GetBlockByX` directly rather than thru a "manager".
Added a `Difference` method to `types.Transactions` which sets the
receiver to the difference of a to b (NOTE: not a **and** b).
Transaction pool subscribes to RemovedTransactionEvent adding back to
those potential missing from the chain.
When a chain re-org occurs remove any transactions that were removed
from the canonical chain during the re-org as well as the receipts that
were generated in the process.
Closes#1746
Dev mode enabled some debugging flags such as:
* VM debugging mode
* Simpler proof of work
* Whisper enabled by default
* Datadir to a tmp datadir
* Maxpeers set to 0
* Gas price of 0
* Random listen port
Fixed database merge strategy to use the correct database. Due to a copy
paste fail when doing type evaluation the same database was being
iterated (chain), all others were ignored.
Removed state prefixing because {H(code): code} is stored in the same
database as the rest of the state.
* resolver -> common/registrar
* global registrar name registry interface
* add Call to resolver backend interface
* the hashReg and UrlHing contracts now initialised from global registry
* initialization of contracts uniform
* improve errors and more econsistent method names
* common/registrar/ethreg: versioned registrar
* integrate new naming and registrar in natspec
* js console api: setGlobalRegistrar, setHashReg, setUrlHint
* js test TestContract uses mining - tests fixed all pass
* eth/backend: allow PoW test mode (small ethash DAG)
* console jsre refers to resolver.abi/addr,
* cmd/geth/contracts.go moved to common/registrar
* Miners do now verify their own header, not their state.
* Changed old putTx and putReceipts to be exported
* Moved writing of transactions and receipts out of the block processer
in to the chain manager. Closes#1386
* Miner post ChainHeadEvent & ChainEvent. Closes#1388
