This commit prunes several unused functions from the Db interface and the underlying implementations. For the most part these are holdovers from the original sqlite implementation. It also removes the types associated with those functions since they are no longer needed. The following functions and types have been removed: - InvalidateCache - InvalidateBlockCache - InvalidateTxCache - SetDBInsertMode - InsertMode type and associated constants - NewIterateBlocks - BlockIterator interface The reasons for removing these are broken out below. - Neither of two current implementations implement these functions nor does any of the fully functional code using the interface invoke them. - After contemplating and testing caching of blocks and transactions at this layer, it doesn't seem to provide any real benefit unless very specific assumptions about the use case are made. Making those assumptions can make other use cases worse. For example, assuming a large cache is harmful to memory-constrained use cases. Leaving it up to the caller to choose when to cache block and transactions allows much greater flexibility. - The DB insert mode was an artifact of the original sqlite implementation and probably should have only been exposed specifically on the implementation as opposed through generic interface. If a specific implementation wishes to provide functionality such as special modes, that should be done through type assertions. |
