"tables": [{
"table": "account",
"type": "account",
"index_type": "i64",
"key_names" : ["account"],
"key_types" : ["name"]
}
]
In the abi file for the table, it has the key_names and key_types, I know it is relative to the index_type, but, when will the two field be used?
Sometimes I just set a uint32_t field as primary key, and the abi will include next fields, which I am afraid will have some impact on the primary key.
The key_names is a list of the primary key and all the secondary keys.
The key_types is the type of each of the respective keys.
In a simple table (only a primary key), the type is always uint64 or name, and they key_name is an element from the struct referenced by the type variable.
