[All HFCP Questions]

What happens if the user submits a transaction with no matching function?

AThe peer will have rejected the transaction.

BNothing, the transaction is ignored.

CThe first transaction function is called.

DThe unknownTransaction function is called.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

In Hyperledger Fabric, if a user submits a transaction with no matching function specified in the smart contract, the unknownTransaction function is invoked by default. This function serves as a catch-all method that can be used to handle cases where the transaction type is not recognized, providing a mechanism to manage or log these occurrences effectively .

I agree with A, can't process what it doesn't recognize!

Wait, are you sure about that? I thought it would just error out.

I'm leaning towards the idea that the peer rejects the transaction, but I might be mixing it up with another topic we covered.

I feel like I saw a question similar to this where an unknown function was called, but I can't recall the details.

I remember something about transactions being ignored if they don't match, but that seems too simple.

I think if there's no matching function, the transaction gets rejected, but I'm not entirely sure.

I'm a little confused on this one. I know that if there's no matching function, the transaction can't be processed, but I'm not sure if that means it gets rejected or just ignored. I'll have to review the material again before deciding.

Okay, let me think this through step-by-step. If there's no matching function, the transaction can't be executed, so it seems like the most logical answer would be that it gets rejected. I'll go with option A.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I'm thinking it might just get ignored, but I could be wrong. I'll have to think it through a bit more.

I'm a bit confused; I thought upgrade notifications were sometimes sent via email, but I guess that's more about alerts than actual logs.

D is the way to go. Although, I'm curious if the 'unknownTransaction' function has easter eggs. Maybe it orders pizza automatically?

I'm not sure, but I think it could also be D) The unknownTransaction function is called. It makes sense to handle unknown transactions that way.
