Trait Block 

pub trait Block: Clone {
    type Hash: BlockHash;

    // Required method
    fn hash(&self) -> Self::Hash;
}

A view over the application layer’s block.

The [BorshSerialize] implementation MUST be infallible if the underlying writer is infallible. The [BorshDeserialize] implementation MUST be infallible if it is deserializing a value which was successfully serialized, from a well-formed reader.

Required Associated Types

type Hash: BlockHash

The AsRef<[u8]> implementation MUST return a slice with a consistent length for any value, meaning it’s constant.

The [BorshSerialize] implementation MUST be infallible if the underlying writer is infallible. The [BorshDeserialize] implementation MUST be infallible if it is deserializing a value which was successfully serialized, from a well-formed reader.

Required Methods

fn hash(&self) -> Self::Hash

The block’s hash.

This MUST be cryptographically binding to the entirety of the block.

For two blocks, b1 and b2, b1 == b2 MUST equal b1.hash() == b2.hash(), except with negligible probability (per the binding property).

This MUST always return the same hash for a value upon each call.

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is not dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety".
