Bugs found during property testing

[lastmjs]

• [ ] Fixed

During the initial phases of property testing, we have discovered that not all JavaScript function names can be Rust function names. The developer could create a valid canister method, and the Rust macro would break.

This should be solved if we can get rid of the Rust environment by shipping a Wasm to the developer and using indexes to call into functions. Otherwise we'd have to somehow map JS function names to Rust names.

The Vec(nat8) CandidType should be type inferred as a Uint8Array, and all of the other Vec typed things should also be inferred likely.

Services must have their properties sorted alphabetically. See https://forum.dfinity.org/t/services-wont-deserialize-properly-if-functions-arent-in-alphabetical-order/20885/14.

It's supposedly fixed by @dfinity/agent v0.20.0, we just need to update to that version.

The DFX CLI has a bug where it requires variants to have at least one field. The spec says that it's fine (as far as I could tell) but the CLI doesn't allow it.

See property_tests/arbitraries/candid/constructed/variant_arb/definition_arbs.ts.

[!NOTE] No issue has been made for this yet. I could use advice on where to open this issue.

The thing where empty tuples get returned as {} and not [] yet if you try to pass in an empty tuple {} as a parameter dfx will break. Consistency would be great and allow us to only have one value instead of an agentArgumentValue and an agentResponseValue

Vec2 is not a function on _K6w, this has happened a couple of times if I remember correctly, the last time it just happened was from Service:

import { Canister,query,update,Void,bool,int64,Principal,float64,blob,int16,Func,int,int32,Opt,Some,None,text,nat32,Vec,nat8,Tuple,Record,nat16,nat,Variant,int8,nat64,float32 } from 'azle';
        import { deepEqual } from 'fast-equals';
        // TODO solve the underlying principal problem https://github.com/demergent-labs/azle/issues/1443
        import { Principal as DfinityPrincipal } from '@dfinity/principal';

        const w2t8l3C = Void;
const _XQA61 = bool;
const KF4Kt = int64;
const T2ma2g1 = int64;
const _m4Y = Principal;
const _m3s = Principal;
const _av = int;
const _hYZ6k5e = Void;
const bz9GH0 = nat32;
const S6n8at = bool;
const _K6w = Vec(nat8)
