- Once the
Proxymethod is called, the object it returns can be used to accesskomodod's methods any number of times. - In general, there is no need to convert arguments to strings before they are passed in. But for the cclib methods, all the arguments need to be passed in as strings.
- Find the rpcuser, rpcpassword, rpcport from the coin's
