Module comparator.move

This module exposes functions that can be used to compare the BCS serialization of various datatypes.

Function: compare

This function can be used to compare (lexicographically) the BCS serialization of two objects of the same type. The returned Result object can be read using the is_equal, is_smaller_than, and is_greater_than functions.

Inputs

• Type T

  • Validation: None required.

  • Impact: Type of the objects to compare.

• left: &T

  • Validation: None required.

  • Impact: First object to compare.

• right: &T

  • Validation: None required.

  • Impact: Second object to compare.

Function: compare_u8_vector

This function can be used to compare two byte vectors directly. The returned Result object can be read using the is_equal, is_smaller_than, and is_greater_than functions.

Inputs

• left: vector<u8>

  • Validation: None required.

  • Impact: First vector to compare.

• right: vector<u8>

  • Validation: None required.

  • Impact: Second vector to compare.
