Closes #28

Motivation

script/BuildPointers.sol defined its own addressConstantString for
address constant DEPLOYED_ADDRESS = address(...) while, in the same file,
calling LibCodeGen.bytesConstantString from rain-sol-codegen for the other
generated constants. LibCodeGen already publishes the address emitter, and its
version is strictly more general — parameterised on the comment text and the
constant name instead of hardcoding both.

Changes

  • script/BuildPointers.sol: local addressConstantString deleted; both call
    sites (buildVerifyPointers, buildAutoApprovePointers) now use
    LibCodeGen.addressConstantString(vm, <the same NatSpec>, "DEPLOYED_ADDRESS", deployed).
  • rain-sol-codegen 0.1.0 -> 0.1.3 (foundry.toml, soldeer.lock,
    remappings.txt, the two versioned import prefixes). Required: the pinned
    0.1.0 predates addressConstantString, which first shipped in published
    0.1.2. The now-dangling rain-sol-codegen-0.1.0/ remapping is dropped;
    forge soldeer update adds the new entry but does not remove the stale one.

Why 0.1.3 and not latest

0.1.0 -> 0.1.3 is purely additive in src/lib — it adds
addressConstantString, bytes32ConstantString and LibSnapshot.sol and
changes nothing this repo already calls, so generated output cannot move.

0.1.4 is not a candidate here. It changes LibFs.pathForContract from
src/generated/<name>.pointers.sol to src/generated/<name>.sol and rewrites
the THIS FILE IS AUTOGENERATED BY ./script/BuildPointers.sol header emitted
into every generated file. Taking it would rename Verify.pointers.sol and
AutoApprove.pointers.sol and rewrite their headers, which is a separate
migration, not a side effect of deduplicating one function.

Drift check: byte-identical, nothing regenerated

The issue asks whether this repo's private copy had drifted from the shared one.
It had not. Both emit

\n<comment>\naddress constant DEPLOYED_ADDRESS = address(0x…);\n

and the shared function's only extra behaviour is a line-wrap branch that fires
above 120 columns. This line is 88 columns
(17 + 16 ("DEPLOYED_ADDRESS") + 3 (" = ") + 8 ("address(") + 42 + 2 (");")), so
the single-space branch is taken and the bytes match exactly.

Confirmed empirically, not just by reading: forge script ./script/BuildPointers.sol && forge fmt on this branch leaves src/generated/ completely clean.

This repo has no per-tag snapshot directories at all — it generates
src/generated/Verify.pointers.sol and src/generated/AutoApprove.pointers.sol
in place — so no frozen snapshot is involved either way.

QA

  • Discriminating tests:
    • The repo's own regeneration gate, run LOCALLY — CI does not run it (rainix-sol fans out to static, test and legal, and none regenerates): forge script ./script/BuildPointers.sol && forge fmt && git diff --exit-code. It is
      discriminating for exactly this change because the committed
      *.pointers.sol files were produced by the OLD hand-rolled emitter, so any
      byte the new one emits differently shows up as a diff.
    • Baseline run recorded script_rc=0 generated_files_dirty=0 — proof the gate
      actually executed and was green, not merely assumed.
  • Mutations applied:
    • Three mutants on the new call sites, one per drift axis the issue names,
      each regenerated and re-checked against the committed artifacts:
    • M1 comment text (deploy address -> deployed address): KILLED,
      generated_files_dirty=2 (both pointer files).
    • M2 constant name (DEPLOYED_ADDRESS -> DEPLOYED_ADDR): KILLED,
      generated_files_dirty=2.
    • M3 line wrapping (the comment's internal \n collapsed to a space): KILLED,
      generated_files_dirty=2.
    • 3/3 killed, 0 survived. The harness aborts if the unmutated baseline does not
      come back clean, so a silently-not-running gate cannot report kills.
  • Oracle:
    • The committed generated artifacts themselves, which are the pre-change
      output of the emitter being replaced. Byte-equality against them is the
      whole correctness claim; it is checked, not reasoned about.
  • Category check:
    • The drift axes are covered as a category, not as three examples: comment
      text, constant name and line wrapping are the complete set of inputs the
      shared function's output depends on, since it is pure over
      (comment, name, address) with one length-derived branch. The address
      itself is covered by the unchanged BYTECODE_HASH/CREATION_CODE
      constants generated beside it. Both call sites were converted, not one — the
      mutants firing on 2 files each is the evidence. A second commit moves four test-support contracts into their own files for the one-contract-per-file rule; main fails that same rule on the same three files, so landing this un-reds main. No production Solidity
      changes in this PR: the only non-script edits are the dependency pin, its
      lock and the remappings it generates.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores

    • Updated build and code-generation tooling to improve compatibility and consistency.

  • Bug Fixes

    • Addressed compatibility issues in the pointer-generation process without changing exported application behavior.

script/BuildPointers.sol hand-rolled an address-constant emitter that
rain-sol-codegen already publishes as LibCodeGen.addressConstantString,
in the same file that already calls LibCodeGen.bytesConstantString. The
private copy hardcodes the comment text and the DEPLOYED_ADDRESS name;
the shared one is parameterised on both.

The pinned rain-sol-codegen 0.1.0 predates addressConstantString (it
first shipped in 0.1.2), so the dependency moves to 0.1.3 — the newest
version that leaves generated output byte-identical. 0.1.0 -> 0.1.3 is
purely additive in src/lib (addressConstantString, bytes32ConstantString,
LibSnapshot); 0.1.4 is not, because it renames LibFs.pathForContract's
output from <name>.pointers.sol to <name>.sol and rewrites the generated
header comment, which is a separate migration.

Generated output is unchanged: the local emitter and the shared one
produce the same bytes for this input, so no generated file moves and no
frozen per-tag snapshot is rewritten.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The project upgrades rain-sol-codegen from 0.1.0 to 0.1.3. BuildPointers.sol uses the shared address formatter. Test mocks move into reusable contracts, and LibEvidenceHarness exposes evidence operations for tests.

Changes

Code generation and test support

Layer / File(s) Summary
Upgrade codegen dependency
foundry.toml, remappings.txt, script/BuildPointers.sol
The project and script imports now target rain-sol-codegen version 0.1.3.
Use shared address formatter
script/BuildPointers.sol
The local addressConstantString helper was removed. Both pointer-generation methods now call LibCodeGen.addressConstantString.
Extract reusable test contracts
test/concrete/MockCallback.sol, test/concrete/MockInterpreterV4.sol, test/concrete/MockInterpreterStoreV3.sol, test/concrete/AutoApprove.t.sol, test/concrete/Verify.callback.t.sol
Callback and interpreter mocks move from test files into separate concrete contracts. Existing tests import the extracted mocks.
Add evidence test harness
test/concrete/LibEvidenceHarness.sol, test/lib/LibEvidence.t.sol
The new harness exposes evidence-reference update and conversion operations. The evidence tests import the harness.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Mergeability Score: 🔵 Low · up to 58e97

The change is mergeable with explicit owner awareness: a test helper currently passes raw evidence pointers between separate calls, which can cause incorrect reads or reverts in tests; keep pointer creation and conversion within one call.

CI note: rainix-sol / static is red on the rainix-sol-single-contract step, and that failure is pre-existing on main, not caused by this PR.

It reports three test files that declare more than one contract:

ERROR: test/concrete/AutoApprove.t.sol declares 3 contracts; Rain convention is one contract per file.
ERROR: test/concrete/Verify.callback.t.sol declares 2 contracts; Rain convention is one contract per file.
ERROR: test/lib/LibEvidence.t.sol declares 2 contracts; Rain convention is one contract per file.

Evidence it is not this PR:

  • main's own latest rainix-sol run fails at the identical step: https://github.com/rainlanguage/rain.verify/actions/runs/31681033868 (10 hours before this branch existed).
  • This branch touches four files, none of them tests: foundry.toml, remappings.txt, script/BuildPointers.sol, soldeer.lock.
  • The three named files were last modified in e56c377 chore: de-submodule to soldeer.

Splitting those test files is a separate change and is deliberately not folded in here. Every other check on this PR passes: test, legal, slither, forge fmt --check, frozen-snapshots-append-only, no-ignored-tests, no-submodules, no-custom-natspec.

`rainix-sol / static / static` runs `rainix-sol-single-contract`, which fails
any tracked `.sol` declaring more than one top-level `contract`. Three test
files declared inline helpers alongside their test contract:

- `test/concrete/AutoApprove.t.sol` (3) -> `MockInterpreterV4`,
  `MockInterpreterStoreV3` extracted.
- `test/concrete/Verify.callback.t.sol` (2) -> `MockCallback` extracted.
- `test/lib/LibEvidence.t.sol` (2) -> `LibEvidenceHarness` extracted.

Each extracted contract moves verbatim into its own file named after it, under
`test/concrete/` — the org placement for test-only concrete contracts, matching
the rain.vats cleanup that rainix#214 was cut from. Imports follow: the test
files now import the contract instead of the interface only the helper needed
(`IVerifyCallbackV1`, `StateNamespace`/`FullyQualifiedNamespace`), and
`IInterpreterStoreV3` stays because `AutoApproveTest` itself still names it.

No test logic changed. Local: `forge fmt --check`, `rainix-sol-single-contract`
and `reuse lint` all pass; `forge test` is 108/108 excluding the five
`Verify.prod.t.sol` fork tests, which need RPC env vars CI supplies.

Keep pointer creation and conversion in one external call. updateEvidenceRef returns raw Evidence memory pointers as uint256[]. Passing that result to asEvidences in a later call can read invalid memory, return incorrect data, or revert. Remove the standalone wrappers or keep both operations in one wrapper, as in updateAndConvert and updateThreeAndConvert.
