The call lifecycle for the Ethereum Alarm Clock, held in a library

Frontier EraVerified Source

Historical Significance

Splitting a service into a library holding the logic and one small contract per unit of work was a deliberate answer to the block gas limit: deploying a fresh copy of the full lifecycle for every scheduled call would have been unaffordable. The pattern, thin per-item contracts calling into shared library code, is what proxies and clone factories later made routine.

Context

Deployed in November 2015 on the Frontier chain by the account behind the Ethereum Alarm Clock, which deployed the whole system from one address. It reproduces exactly at solc 0.1.6 commit d6e77ce0, a build that was never released and is absent from solc-bin, so Etherscan has no compiler that can verify it.

Description

A library holding the whole lifecycle of a scheduled call for the Ethereum Alarm Clock, so that each call contract can be small. It covers claiming, where a caller posts a deposit during a window before the call comes due and receives the exclusive right to execute it; execution, which forwards the recorded data and gas to the target and then reimburses the caller at the gas price anchored when the call was scheduled; and cancellation, which returns the funds if the call was never executed. Balances are moved through the linked AccountingLib.
