Class ScriptBuilder

java.lang.Object
org.bitcoinj.script.ScriptBuilder
public class ScriptBuilder extends Object

Tools for the construction of commonly used script types. You don't normally need this as it's hidden behind convenience methods on Transaction, but they are useful when working with the protocol at a lower level.

  • Constructor Details

    • ScriptBuilder

      public ScriptBuilder()
      Creates a fresh ScriptBuilder with an empty program.

    • ScriptBuilder

      public ScriptBuilder(Script template)
      Creates a fresh ScriptBuilder with the given program as the starting point.

  • Method Details

    • creationTime

      public ScriptBuilder creationTime(Instant creationTime)
      Associates this script to be built with a given creation time. This is currently used in the context of watching wallets only, where the scriptPubKeys being watched actually represent public keys and their addresses.
      Parameters:
      creationTime - creation time to associate the script with
      Returns:
      this builder
