LinearState

interface LinearState : ContractState

A state that evolves by superseding itself, all of which share the common "linearId".

This simplifies the job of tracking the current version of certain types of state in e.g. a vault.

Properties

linearId

Unique id shared by all LinearState states throughout history within the vaults of all parties. Verify methods should check that one input and one output share the id in a transaction, except at issuance/termination.

abstract val linearId: UniqueIdentifier

Extension Functions

hash	Returns the SHA-256 hash of the serialised contents of this state (not cached!) `fun ContractState.hash(): SecureHash` Returns the hash of the serialised contents of this state (not cached!) `fun ContractState.hash(algorithm: String): SecureHash`

Inheritors

DealState

Interface representing an agreement that exposes various attributes that are common. Implementing it simplifies implementation of general flows that manipulate many agreement types.
