# UndoRedo Class

Manages undo/redo stacks for all spreadsheet operations.

# oldData: Preserving Formula ASTs Across Irreversible Transformations

Some structural operations (e.g., removing rows/columns, moving cells) destroy formula information that cannot be reconstructed from the transformation alone. For example, when a row is removed, formulas referencing that row are rewritten to #REF! — an irreversible change.

To support undo of such operations, oldData stores formula AST references keyed by the LazilyTransformingAstService version at which the irreversible transformation was applied. Each entry maps a version number to an array of [cellAddress, ast] pairs. These references keep the original formulas available independently of parser cache eviction, and are released when the snapshots expire.

# Memory Management

Without cleanup, oldData grows indefinitely as undo entries are evicted but their oldData keys remain. Three mechanisms prevent this:

  1. Eviction cleanup: When undo entries are evicted (due to undoLimit), cleanupOldDataForEntries() deletes their referenced oldData keys (unless still needed by entries on the other stack).
  2. Orphan cleanup: Compaction may force lazy formula evaluation, which writes new oldData entries for already-evicted undo entries. After compaction, cleanupOrphanedOldData() removes any keys not referenced by entries on either stack or the in-progress batch.
  3. Short-circuit: When undoLimit is 0 (undo disabled), storeDataForVersion() returns immediately to avoid storing data that would never be used.

# Methods

# beginBatchMode

beginBatchMode(): void

Defined in src/UndoRedo.ts:523 (opens new window)

# cleanupOrphanedOldData

cleanupOrphanedOldData(): void

Defined in src/UndoRedo.ts:881 (opens new window)

Removes oldData entries whose version keys are not referenced by any entry on the undo stack, redo stack, or in-progress batch. Called after compaction forces lazy formula evaluation, which may insert oldData for already-evicted entries.

Returns: void

Defined in src/UndoRedo.ts:551 (opens new window)

Clears the redo stack and removes oldData entries no longer referenced by any remaining entry.

Returns: void

Defined in src/UndoRedo.ts:557 (opens new window)

Clears the undo stack and removes oldData entries no longer referenced by any remaining entry.
