package stream
// eventSnapshot represents the state of memdb for a given topic and key at some
// point in time. It is modelled as a buffer of events so that snapshots can be
// streamed to possibly multiple subscribers concurrently, and can be trivially
// cached by retaining a reference to a Snapshot. Once the reference to eventSnapshot
// is dropped from memory, any subscribers still reading from it may do so by following
// their pointers. When the last subscriber unsubscribes, the snapshot is garbage
// collected automatically by Go's runtime. This simplifies snapshot and buffer
// management dramatically.
type eventSnapshot struct {
// First item in the buffer. Used as the Head of a subscription, or to
// splice this snapshot onto another one.
First *bufferItem
// buffer is the Head of the snapshot buffer the fn should write to.

}
// newEventSnapshot creates an empty snapshot buffer.

// appendAndSlice populates the snapshot buffer by calling the SnapshotFunc,
// then adding an endOfSnapshot framing event, and finally by splicing in
// events from the topicBuffer.

// in the buffer, or the first item where the index is greater than idx. Once
