OnDeploy operation

[devhawk]

Summary or problem description
Contacts often have a deploy method the owner has to invoke after deployment

Do you have any solution you want to propose?
Contacts should be able to specify an on deploy operation that is invoked automatically by the system on deployment (including update scenarios)

Neo Version

• Neo 3

Where in the software does this update applies to?

• SDK
• VM

Maybe we can call _initialize

[devhawk]

As I understand it, _initialize is runtime initialization, so that won't accomplish what I'm suggesting.

The NEP-5 template contract has a Deploy method that the contract owner is expected to invoke after deployment. I'm suggesting there should be a mechanism to optionally invoke this operation during deployment

I thought that it was easier to do it in the constructor, but it won't be faster, please take a look again.
