Create Account (Anchor)

Note

This is the Anchor v2 copy of this example. Every anchor command on this page needs the v2 CLI: cargo install anchor-cli --version 2.0.0-rc.1 --locked (avm has no prebuilt binary for this pre-release). The Anchor v1 version of this example is in ../anchor-v1.

Create new onchain accounts and fund them for rent exemption using the System Program.

See also: Create Account overview and the repository catalog.

Major concepts

  • Account creation CPI
  • Rent-exempt lamport funding

Testing

Tests run in-process with LiteSVM. No local validator.
