Contract ABI (v2) and Recursive Length Prefix made easy for the JVM. Everything heavily optimized for maximum throughput (ABI function call encoding up to 500x faster than a popular competitor. One function init plus one encode up to 50x faster (run benchmarks with gradle jmh
or run the maven-generated benchmarks jar)).

Also includes optimized implementations of:
- EIP-778 Ethereum Node Records
- hexadecimal
- Keccak
Now available in Maven Central Repository.
Or build locally:
Clone the project and install to your local maven repository using gradle publishToMavenLocal
or mvn install
, then declare it as a dependency:
implementation 'com.esaulpaugh:headlong:3.4.1-SNAPSHOT'
<dependency>
<groupId>com.esaulpaugh</groupId>
<artifactId>headlong</artifactId>
<version>3.4.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>
Alternatively:
- Run
gradle build
orgradle jar
which output tobuild/libs
- Use
mvn package
which outputs totarget
- Execute
ant all build-jar
which outputs tobuild/lib
- Add headlong as a project dependency
https://github.com/esaulpaugh/headlong-cli
https://github.com/esaulpaugh/headlong-android
headlong (optionally) depends on gson and bouncycastle. Test suite should take less than one minute to run. Test packages require junit. Jar size is ~126 KiB as of 06/23/20. Java 8+.
