* \brief RDB example 9: Cleanup database
* \version 2017-01-30/AW: Initial version
* \version 2018-07-10/AW: Better error handling
*
* This example shows how to open an existing database and how to dismiss
* the database history, i.e. to delete all transactions except the first
* (database creation) and the current transaction (last committed or
* restored).
*
* Afterwards we vacuum the database which reorganizes the data blocks in
* the database file so that there are no (or as few as possible) unused
* blocks (gaps).
*
* Please note, that both database operations cannot be reverted!
*
* Build instructions see "interface/cpp/riegl/README.TXT".

//____________________________________________________________________//
// //
// At this point, there might be many unused data blocks in the //
// database file which were occupied by the transactions we have //
// just deleted. These data blocks will be re-used when we create //
// new transactions to insert, update or remove points or make //
// other changes to e.g. meta data items. //
// So the following vacuum step is optional but might be a good //
// idea before archiving or transferring the database file. //
//____________________________________________________________________//
// //
// Now we reorganize and shrink the database file:
[](const uint8_t progress)
{
// As this might be a lengthy operation, vacuum() accepts
// an optional callback function to notify the user about
// the (coarse) progress. However there is no function to
// cancel this process.
