MIR Between Pots

typedef struct cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t

This certificate move instantaneous rewards funds between accounting pots.


cardano_error_t cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_new(cardano_mir_cert_pot_type_t pot_type, uint64_t amount, cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t **mir_to_pot_cert)

Initializes a new instance of the Move Instantaneous Reward (MIR) certificate for transferring funds between pots.

This function initializes a new cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object, which represents a MIR certificate designed to transfer a specified amount of ADA from one accounting pot to another within the Cardano ecosystem.

Usage Example:

cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t* mir_to_pot_cert = NULL;
cardano_error_t result = cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_new(CARDANO_MIR_CERT_POT_TYPE_RESERVE, 1000, &mir_to_pot_cert);

if (result == CARDANO_SUCCESS)
{
  // Use the MIR certificate

  // Once done, ensure to clean up and release the MIR certificate
  cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_unref(&mir_to_pot_cert);
}

Parameters:
cardano_mir_cert_pot_type_t pot_type

[in] Determines the accounting pot from which the funds will be drawn. This is specified by the cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t enumeration, which includes options for the reserve pot or the treasury pot.

uint64_t amount

[in] The amount of ADA to be transferred by this MIR certificate.

cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t **mir_to_pot_cert

[out] On successful creation, this will point to a newly created cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object. The caller is responsible for managing the lifecycle of this object. Specifically, once the MIR certificate is no longer needed, the caller must release it by calling the appropriate deallocation function.

Returns:

cardano_error_t indicating the outcome of the operation. Returns CARDANO_SUCCESS if the MIR certificate was successfully created, or an appropriate error code indicating the failure reason.


cardano_error_t cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_from_cbor(cardano_cbor_reader_t *reader, cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t **mir_to_pot_cert)

Creates a cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t from a CBOR reader.

This function parses CBOR data using a provided cardano_cbor_reader_t and constructs a cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object. It assumes that the CBOR reader is set up correctly and that the CBOR data corresponds to the structure expected for a mir_to_pot_cert.

Usage Example:

cardano_cbor_reader_t* reader = cardano_cbor_reader_new(cbor_data, data_size);
cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t* mir_to_pot_cert = NULL;

cardano_error_t result = cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_from_cbor(reader, &mir_to_pot_cert);

if (result == CARDANO_SUCCESS)
{
  // Use the mir_to_pot_cert

  // Once done, ensure to clean up and release the mir_to_pot_cert
  cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_unref(&mir_to_pot_cert);
}
else
{
  const char* error = cardano_cbor_reader_get_last_error(reader);
  printf("Failed to decode mir_to_pot_cert: %s\n", error);
}

cardano_cbor_reader_unref(&reader); // Cleanup the CBOR reader

Note

If the function fails, the last error can be retrieved by calling cardano_cbor_reader_get_last_error with the reader. The caller is responsible for freeing the created cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object by calling cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_unref when it is no longer needed.

Parameters:
cardano_cbor_reader_t *reader

[in] A pointer to an initialized cardano_cbor_reader_t that is ready to read the CBOR-encoded data.

cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t **mir_to_pot_cert

[out] A pointer to a pointer of cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t that will be set to the address of the newly created mir_to_pot_cert object upon successful decoding.

Returns:

A cardano_error_t value indicating the outcome of the operation. Returns CARDANO_SUCCESS if the object was successfully created, or an appropriate error code if an error occurred.


cardano_error_t cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_to_cbor(const cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t *mir_to_pot_cert, cardano_cbor_writer_t *writer)

Serializes the certificate into CBOR format using a CBOR writer.

This function serializes the given cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object using a cardano_cbor_writer_t.

Usage Example:

cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t* mir_to_pot_cert = ...;
cardano_cbor_writer_t* writer = cardano_cbor_writer_new();

if (writer)
{
  cardano_error_t result = cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_to_cbor(mir_to_pot_cert, writer);

  if (result == CARDANO_SUCCESS)
  {
    // Use the writer's buffer containing the serialized data
  }
  else
  {
    const char* error_message = cardano_cbor_writer_get_last_error(writer);
    printf("Serialization failed: %s\n", error_message);
  }

  cardano_cbor_writer_unref(&writer);
}

cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_unref(&mir_to_pot_cert);

Parameters:
const cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t *mir_to_pot_cert

[in] A constant pointer to the cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object that is to be serialized.

cardano_cbor_writer_t *writer

[out] A pointer to a cardano_cbor_writer_t where the CBOR serialized data will be written. The writer must already be initialized and ready to accept the data.

Returns:

Returns CARDANO_SUCCESS if the serialization is successful. If the mir_to_pot_cert or writer is NULL, returns CARDANO_ERROR_POINTER_IS_NULL.


cardano_error_t cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_to_cip116_json(const cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t *cert, cardano_json_writer_t *writer)

Serializes a MIR-to-pot certificate to CIP-116 JSON.

cardano_mir_cert_pot_type_t pot_type = CARDANO_MIR_CERT_POT_TYPE_RESERVE;
cardano_error_t result = cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_set_pot(mir_cert, pot_type);

if (result == CARDANO_SUCCESS)
{
  // Pot type was successfully set
}

[in] The pot type to be set, represented by cardano_mir_cert_pot_type_t.

Returns:

cardano_error_t indicating the outcome of the operation. Returns CARDANO_SUCCESS if the pot type was successfully set, or an appropriate error code indicating the failure reason.


cardano_error_t cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_get_amount(const cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t *mir_cert, uint64_t *amount)

Retrieves the amount specified in a Move Instantaneous Reward (MIR) certificate.

This function gets the amount to be transferred as specified in the given cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object.

Usage Example:

const cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t* mir_cert = ...; // Assume this is initialized
uint64_t amount = 0;
cardano_error_t result = cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_get_amount(mir_cert, &amount);

if (result == CARDANO_SUCCESS)
{
  // Amount was successfully retrieved
}

Parameters:

uint64_t *amount

[out] A pointer to a uint64_t where the amount will be stored.

Returns:

cardano_error_t indicating the outcome of the operation. Returns CARDANO_SUCCESS if the amount was successfully retrieved, or an appropriate error code indicating the failure reason.


cardano_error_t cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_set_amount(cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t *mir_cert, uint64_t amount)

Sets the amount in a Move Instantaneous Reward (MIR) certificate.

This function sets the amount to be transferred in the given cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object.

Usage Example:

cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t* mir_cert = ...; // Assume this is initialized
uint64_t amount = 1000;
cardano_error_t result = cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_set_amount(mir_cert, amount);

if (result == CARDANO_SUCCESS)
{
  // Amount was successfully set
}

Parameters:
cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t *mir_cert

[inout] A pointer to the cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object.

uint64_t amount

[in] The amount to be set in the MIR certificate.

Returns:

cardano_error_t indicating the outcome of the operation. Returns CARDANO_SUCCESS if the amount was successfully set, or an appropriate error code indicating the failure reason.


void cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_unref(cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t **mir_to_pot_cert)

Decrements the reference count of a cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object.

This function is responsible for managing the lifecycle of a cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object by decreasing its reference count. When the reference count reaches zero, the mir_to_pot_cert is finalized; its associated resources are released, and its memory is deallocated.

Usage Example:

cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t* mir_to_pot_cert = cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_new(major, minor);

// Perform operations with the mir_to_pot_cert...

cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_unref(&mir_to_pot_cert);
// At this point, mir_to_pot_cert is NULL and cannot be used.

Note

After calling cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_unref, the pointer to the cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object will be set to NULL to prevent its reuse.

Parameters:
cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t **mir_to_pot_cert

[inout] A pointer to the pointer of the mir_to_pot_cert object. This double indirection allows the function to set the caller’s pointer to NULL, avoiding dangling pointer issues after the object has been freed.


void cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_ref(cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t *mir_to_pot_cert)

Increases the reference count of the cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object.

This function is used to manually increment the reference count of an cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object, indicating that another part of the code has taken ownership of it. This ensures the object remains allocated and valid until all owners have released their reference by calling cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_unref.

Usage Example:

// Assuming mir_to_pot_cert is a previously created mir_to_pot_cert object

cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_ref(mir_to_pot_cert);

// Now mir_to_pot_cert can be safely used elsewhere without worrying about premature deallocation

Note

Always ensure that for every call to cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_ref there is a corresponding call to cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_unref to prevent memory leaks.

Parameters:
cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t *mir_to_pot_cert

A pointer to the cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object whose reference count is to be incremented.


size_t cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_refcount(const cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t *mir_to_pot_cert)

Retrieves the current reference count of the cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object.

This function returns the number of active references to an cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object. It’s useful for debugging purposes or managing the lifecycle of the object in complex scenarios.

Usage Example:

// Assuming mir_to_pot_cert is a previously created mir_to_pot_cert object

size_t ref_count = cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_refcount(mir_to_pot_cert);

printf("Reference count: %zu\n", ref_count);

Warning

This function does not account for transitive references. A transitive reference occurs when an object holds a reference to another object, rather than directly to the cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t. As such, the reported count may not fully represent the total number of conceptual references in cases where such transitive relationships exist.

Parameters:
const cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t *mir_to_pot_cert

A pointer to the cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object whose reference count is queried. The object must not be NULL.

Returns:

The number of active references to the specified cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object. If the object is properly managed (i.e., every cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_ref call is matched with a cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_unref call), this count should reach zero right before the object is deallocated.


void cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_set_last_error(cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t *mir_to_pot_cert, const char *message)

Sets the last error message for a given cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t object.

Records an error message in the mir_to_pot_cert’s last_error buffer, overwriting any existing message. This is useful for storing descriptive error information that can be later retrieved. The message is truncated if it exceeds the buffer’s capacity.

Note

The error message is limited to 1023 characters, including the null terminator, due to the fixed size of the last_error buffer.

Parameters:
cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t *mir_to_pot_cert

[in] A pointer to the cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t instance whose last error message is to be set. If NULL, the function does nothing.

const char *message

[in] A null-terminated string containing the error message. If NULL, the mir_to_pot_cert’s last_error is set to an empty string, indicating no error.


const char *cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_get_last_error(const cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t *mir_to_pot_cert)

Retrieves the last error message recorded for a specific mir_to_pot_cert.

This function returns a pointer to the null-terminated string containing the last error message set by cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_set_last_error for the given mir_to_pot_cert. If no error message has been set, or if the last_error buffer was explicitly cleared, an empty string is returned, indicating no error.

Note

The returned string points to internal storage within the object and must not be modified by the caller. The string remains valid until the next call to cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_set_last_error for the same mir_to_pot_cert, or until the mir_to_pot_cert is deallocated.

Parameters:
const cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t *mir_to_pot_cert

[in] A pointer to the cardano_mir_to_pot_cert_t instance whose last error message is to be retrieved. If the mir_to_pot_cert is NULL, the function returns a generic error message indicating the null mir_to_pot_cert.

Returns:

A pointer to a null-terminated string containing the last error message for the specified mir_to_pot_cert. If the mir_to_pot_cert is NULL, “Object is NULL.” is returned to indicate the error.
