EIP-2535 Diamonds Write smart contracts with virtually no size limit in a modular and gas-efficient way.
Initializing an EIP-2535 Diamond for deployment and upgrades 7 implied HN points • 28 Jan 24 🕹 Technology Smart Contracts Blockchain Ethereum In smart contract systems, a unique method is required to initialize state variables in proxy contracts or diamonds. EIP-2535 Diamonds offer a better way to initialize by writing a single initialization function for all facets. The recommended approach is to use composition instead of inheritance for initialization to keep code clean and efficient.
Compliance with EIP-2535 Diamonds Standard 7 implied HN points • 21 Mar 23 🕹 Technology Blockchain Programming Web The EIP-2535 Diamonds standard took 4 years to develop and optimize for flexibility and interoperability. To comply with EIP-2535, a smart contract must implement specific functions outlined in the standard. The `diamondCut` upgrade function in EIP-2535 is optional, but implementing it enables interoperability with existing and future tooling.
Simplicity of EIP-2535 Diamonds Standard 3 implied HN points • 08 Apr 23 🕹 Technology Blockchain Programming Implementing EIP-2535 Diamonds requires a fallback function and specific external functions. The EIP-2535 Diamonds standard is simpler compared to other token standards like ERC20. Understanding how Solidity stores data and delegatecall is key for working with EIP-2535 Diamonds.
Compliance and Transparency of Immutable Functions in Diamonds 1 implied HN point • 07 Apr 23 🕹 Technology Blockchain Transparency Compliance Functions Data The EIP-2535 Diamond standard emphasizes the importance of emitting and returning immutable functions for transparency. Transparency is crucial to prevent confusion and incorrect data about immutable functions in diamonds. Ensuring compliance with EIP-2535 Diamond standards avoids situations where functions are unintentionally duplicated or incorrectly referenced.
How to Upgrade a Diamond to Use New State Variables? 0 implied HN points • 15 Mar 24 🕹 Technology Blockchain Programming In diamond upgrades, you can add, replace, or remove external functions to incorporate new state variables. When adding new state variables to a shared struct in a diamond, only the external functions that use them need to be replaced. To upgrade a diamond with new state variables, you only need to add new external functions and replace existing ones that use the new state variables.
