Close a Settings Transaction

Closes a SettingsTransaction and its Proposal, refunding their rent. Clean-up after a settings transaction reaches a terminal state.

Closeable once the proposal is Executed, Rejected, or Cancelled, or is stale. (Unlike vault transactions, an Approved-but-stale settings proposal can be closed — it can no longer execute.) No member signature is required; only the fee payer signs.

Program method — close_settings_transaction

Signs with payer only, then sends. The rent collectors default to the on-chain stored values when omitted.

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
payer	Keypair	yes	—	Pays the fee; the only signer.
settings	#to_s	yes	—	The settings account address.
transaction_index	Integer	yes	—	Index of the settings transaction to close.
proposal_rent_collector	#to_s	no	stored value	Receives the proposal rent (defaults to the proposal's stored collector).
transaction_rent_collector	#to_s	no	stored value	Receives the transaction rent (defaults to the transaction's stored collector).

Plus the shared sign: / execute: controls and Solace::Transaction return — see Conventions.
