← Back to Rippled II Overview


Objective

Explore the Payment transactor implementation in the Rippled codebase.

Format: Written report (PDF or Markdown) with screenshots/code snippets

Requirements

  1. Locate the Code

    • Find Payment.cpp in the codebase

    • Identify the class declaration

  2. Analyze the Three Phases

    • Document what checks occur in preflight()

    • Document what checks occur in preclaim()

    • Document what state changes occur in doApply()

    • For each phase, provide:

      • Line numbers where the function is defined

      • 2-3 specific validation checks performed

      • Code snippet (5-10 lines) showing a key validation

Deliverable

A technical document with:

  • File path and line numbers

  • Description of each phase

  • Code snippets with explanations

  • At least one example of an error condition that would cause the transaction to fail
