Dynamic Array Encoding Fix in Web3j
Problem Statement
The original implementation did not correctly handle dynamic arrays according to Solidity's ABI encoding specification. In Solidity, when using
abi.encode()
with array parameters, the output includes dynamic offsets pointing to the actual array data.Example in Solidity
When calling this function with:
The encoded output structure should be:
Issue
The original Web3j implementation was concatenating array data directly without proper offset handling:
Solution
Modified the implementation to follow Solidity's ABI encoding specification:
Impact
abi.encode()
functionThis change aligns Web3j's implementation with Ethereum's ABI specification for dynamic array encoding.
