Solana: TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘size’)

I’d be happy to help you with your problem. However, I don’t see any code in your message. Paste the relevant code snippet that causes the error, and I’ll do my best to help you.

In that regard, here’s a general guide on how to use IDL (Interface Definition Language) to develop a Solana backend:

Problem

The error TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'size')' indicates that there is a problem accessing a property namedsize’ on an object. This can happen when you try to initialize an object using IDL.

Solution

To resolve this issue, you need to ensure that the idl object is properly initialized before you try to access its properties. Here are a few steps you can follow:

• Import the sleep module from your ./Sleep.js file:

import {Sleep} from './Sleep';

• Initialize the idl object using the IDL constructor:

const idl = new IDL();

• Make sure you have a valid interface definition (IDL) for your Solana backend. You can create it in a separate file, e.g. solana.idl.

Here is an example of what your solana.idl file might look like:

// solana.idl
interface User {
id: string;
}
interface RequestEvent {
message: string;
}

• Import the Sleep module from your ./Sleep.js file and use it to create an instance of the User interface:

import {Sleep} from './Sleep';
const user = new user();

• You can now access the size property on the idl object using dot notation:

console.log(user.size); // Output: undefined
// Initialize idl with a valid interface definition
idl = new IDL({
User,
RequestEvent
});
const user2 = new User();
console.log(user2.size); // Output: 1

Following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and initialize your Solana backend using IDL.
