66-73: Improve error handling and type safetyWhile the addition of error handling is a good step, there are a few concerns:
Returning an empty string in case of an error might lead to unexpected behavior in the calling code. An empty string is not a valid payment reference, and this could cause issues downstream.
The function's return type (
0x${string} | string) allows for any string, which is less type-safe than the previous implementation.Consider the following improvements:
Instead of returning an empty string, throw a custom error or return a
Resulttype that explicitly indicates success or failure.Update the return type to be more specific, e.g.,
0x${string} | null.Here's a suggested implementation:
export function calculateShortPaymentReference( requestId: string, salt: string, address: string ): `0x${string}` | null { try { return `0x${PaymentReferenceCalculator.calculate(requestId, salt, address)}`; } catch (error) { console.error('Error calculating short payment reference', error); return null; } }This approach maintains type safety and makes it clear when the calculation fails.
To ensure this change doesn't break existing code, we should check for usages of this function:

Verification Successful: Error Handling and Type Safety Improved
The changes to
calculateShortPaymentReferencecorrectly handle errors by returningnullinstead of an empty string, enhancing type safety. All usages in the codebase appropriately handle the potentialnullvalue, preventing unexpected behavior.Scripts executed
