The Bridge.sol
contract contains a custom error CollectionMappingError
that is not being utilized in any function and error handling. This indicates a possible oversight in the implementation of error handling mechanisms.
Solidity allows for the definition of custom errors to efficiently handle exceptions and provide clear, gas-efficient error messages. The unused custom error suggests that certain error conditions might not be appropriately addressed within the contract's logic or that there is redundant code that unnecessarily increases the contract's complexity and size.
Contract: Bridge.sol
Snippet:
The intended error handling using the custom error may not be functioning as designed, which could lead to inadequate feedback on transactions or failure conditions, potentially complicating debugging and user interaction.

It is recommended to review the Bridge.sol
contract to determine if the unutilized custom error was intended for certain conditions that are currently not handled. In this case, implement the error handling where appropriate.
If the error is indeed unnecessary, it should be removed to optimize the contract's size and clarity.
