Calling getBlock in BlockBuffer constructor 2 is unnecessary #23

Closed SaintNerevar closed 2 years ago

SaintNerevar commented 2 years ago

The design stipulates that any get/set methods accessing disk blocks must call BlockBuffer::getBufferPtr() which calls getBlock(). So, not calling getBlock() in the constructor simply delays copying the block into the buffer until it is actually needed i.e to access the blocks data.
