There's 2 contracts A
and B
, A
imports B
, where B
is a library that can be upgraded. To achieve this, I tried replacing B
with a proxy contract and a delegate contract.
We now have contracts Foo
, which imports proxy contract Bar
, pointing to delegate contract ZeroDelegate
.
Foo.sol
pragma solidity ^0.4.18;
import './Bar.sol';
contract Foo {
uint storageData;
Bar bar;
address barContractAddress;
constructor(address _barContractAddress) public {
barContractAddress = _barContractAddress;
}
function set(uint x) public {
storageData = x;
}
function get() view public returns (uint) {
return storageData;
}
function baz() public returns (uint) {
bar = Bar(barContractAddress);
storageData = bar.baz(storageData);
}
}
Bar.sol
pragma solidity ^0.4.18;
import './Proxy.sol';
contract Bar is Proxy {
function baz(uint x) public returns (uint) {
return x * x;
}
}
ZeroDelegate.sol
pragma solidity ^0.4.18;
contract ZeroDelegate {
function baz(uint x) public returns (uint) {
return x * 0;
}
}
Proxy.sol
pragma solidity ^0.4.18;
import "zeppelin-solidity/contracts/ownership/Ownable.sol";
contract Proxy is Ownable {
event Upgraded(address indexed implementation);
address internal _implementation;
function implementation() public view returns (address) {
return _implementation;
}
function upgradeTo(address impl) public onlyOwner {
require(_implementation != impl);
_implementation = impl;
emit Upgraded(impl);
}
function () payable public {
address _impl = implementation();
require(_impl != address(0));
bytes memory data = msg.data;
assembly {
let result := delegatecall(gas, _impl, add(data, 0x20), mload(data), 0, 0)
let size := returndatasize
let ptr := mload(0x40)
returndatacopy(ptr, 0, size)
switch result
case 0 { revert(ptr, size) }
default { return(ptr, size) }
}
}
}
Now we first deploy the contracts Foo
, Bar
, ZeroDelegate
.
bar = await Bar.new()
foo = await Foo.new(bar.address)
zeroDelegate = await ZeroDelegate.new()
And foo.baz()
sqaures the number 2 to 4.
x = await foo.baz()
console.log(x.toNumber()) // 4
Next we upgrade the Bar
contract to ZeroDelegate
, but foo.baz()
still squares the number 4 to 16
await bar.upgradeTo(zeroDelegate.address)
bar = _.extend(bar, ZeroDelegate.at(bar.address))
await foo.baz()
x = await foo.get()
console.log(x.toNumber()) // 16, but expects 0
However if we were to re-deploy Foo
contract, it uses the upgraded Bar
. Why is this, and how can we let Foo
use the upgraded Bar
functions without having to re-deploy Foo
, which kind of defeats the purpose of using an upgradable contract.
foo = await Foo.new(bar.address)
await foo.baz()
x = await foo.get()
console.log(x.toNumber()) // 0
