CodeSizeExceedsMaximumError

Represents an error that occurs when the code size exceeds the maximum limit. This error is typically encountered when the contract size to be deployed exceeds the maximum allowed size.

Code size exceeds maximum errors can occur due to:

  • Deployment of contracts with large bytecode.
  • Contracts with a significant amount of embedded data or logic.
  • Incorrect settings for contract size limits in TEVM configuration.

To debug a code size exceeds maximum error:

  1. Review Contract Size: Ensure that the contract bytecode size is within the allowed limits. Consider refactoring the contract to reduce its size.
  2. Optimize Contract Code: Break down large contracts into smaller, modular contracts and use libraries or inheritance to share code.
  3. Configure TEVM Memory Client: When creating a TEVM MemoryClient instance, set allowUnlimitedContractSize to true if necessary. Note that even with this setting, you may still encounter block limits.
    import { createMemoryClient } from 'tevm'
    const client = createMemoryClient({ allowUnlimitedContractSize: true })
  4. Use TEVM Tracing: Utilize TEVM tracing to step through the contract deployment process and inspect the bytecode size.
  5. Use Other Tools: Use other tools to analyze and optimize contract bytecode.

Example

import { CodeSizeExceedsMaximumError } from '@tevm/errors'
try {
// Some operation that can throw a CodeSizeExceedsMaximumError
} catch (error) {
if (error instanceof CodeSizeExceedsMaximumError) {
console.error(error.message);
// Handle the code size exceeds maximum error
}
}
