Unsupported ABI type - receive

[superoo7]

In solidity 0.6.0, there is new receive() method where it allows ether deposit to a contract

receive() external payable {
}

Apparently, I got warning in my console, whenever I try to use ethers.Contract's method

WARNING: unsupported ABI type - receive

[ricmoo]

Yes, this is coming soon. :)

Thanks, I'll use this issue to track the progress. ;)

[superoo7]

Thanks a lot @ricmoo for the quick response, looking forward for the next release

Is there any way to suppress this warning in the meantime?

This has been added to 5.0.0-beta.177 (i.e. the receive is dropped; in the future it may be available along with the fallback as a special function) . Please try it out and let meetups know if you still have any problems. :)

Hi @ricmoo . I am getting a WARNING: unsupported ABI type - receive on ethers 4.0.46, too.

Do I need to upgrade to 5.0.0-beta.177 still or will this be included in 4 any time soon?

[ricmoo]

I wasn’t planning on porting this back to v4 (it’s just a warning, no?).

But I’ll be going through more issues today, trying to close as many down as possible to prepare for the v5 release; if I find other changes that need to go into v4, I’ll sweep this in too (since I think it should be easy).

I can update the code regardless, but otherwise not sure when the next v4 release would be made.

[yahgwai]

Yeah, would be great if it get's swept in. It is just a warning, but it's polluting my logs a lot :)

I've had to comment it out for now, it kept spamming my console lol. +1 for fixing in V4!

We're about to ship a client library which has ethersjs as a dependency - the library deploys contracts with a receive function and as such they log this warning. At the moment I plan to replace the global console.log object with one that filters this message out. Any other ideas?

Sorry for the delay. This has been merged and published in 4.0.47. Let me know if you still have any problems.

Thanks! :)

Awesome, thanks!
