Cancel

TxTypeCancel cancels the execution of the transaction with the same nonce in the transaction pool. This transaction type is useful when a submitted transaction seems unprocessed for a certain amount of time.

Import necessary classes from the Web3j and kaia libraries(web3j-ext).

Create a Web3j instance with the specified BAOBAB_URL

Creating new credentials using LEGACY_KEY_privkey

Gas price and gas limit settings

Set the sender's from address

Get the chain ID from the network

Getting the nonce for the sender's address

Set the transaction type to CANCEL

Create a raw transaction for canceling pending transaction

Sign the raw transaction with pre-defined credentials

Send the raw transaction to the blockchain. It will return the transaction hash

Get the transaction receipt and using the transaction hash

Shutdown the web3j instance

Decoding the raw transaction to get the transaction type
