This commit renames the Script type to Engine to better reflect its
purpose. It also renames the NewScript function to NewEngine to match.
This is being done because name Script for the engine is confusing since
it implies it is an actual script rather than the execution environment
for the script. It also paves the way for eventually supplying a
ParsedScript type which will be less likely to be confused with the
execution environment.
While moving the code, some additional variable names and comments have
been updated to better match the style used throughout the rest of the
code base. In addition, an attempt has been made to use consistent naming
of the engine as 'vm' instead of using different variables names as it was
previously.
Finally, the relevant engine code has been moved into a new file named
engine.go and related tests moved to engine_test.go.
This commit removes the unnecessary sigScript parameter from the
txscript.NewScript function. This has bothered me for a while because it
can and really should be obtained from the provided transaction and input
index. The way it was, the passed script could technically be different
than what is in the transaction. Obviously that would be an improper use
of the API, but it's safer and more convenient to simply pull it from the
provided transaction and index.
Also, since the function signature is changing anyways, make the input
index parameter come after the transaction which it references.
This commit moves the definition of the flags which are needed to check
transaction scripts higher up the call stack to pave the way for adding
support for v3 blocks. While here, also spruce up a couple of sections.
There are no functional changes in this commit.
This commit contains the entire btcchain repository along with several
changes needed to move all of the files into the blockchain directory in
order to prepare it for merging. This does NOT update btcd or any of the
other packages to use the new location as that will be done separately.
- All import paths in the old btcchain test files have been changed to
the new location
- All references to btcchain as the package name have been changed to
blockchain
