• C++: The evmc::result has been renamed to evmc::Result for consistency with C++ types of similar kind. #665
• C++: The HostContext does not cache transaction context (evmc_tx_context) anymore. #631

• The evmc::hex support C++ library has been refactored and converted to a single-header library. #643 #648 #649 #654
• For command-line tools to load input/code from a file the @file syntax must be used. E.g. evmc run @contract.evm --input @data.in. #647
• Improvements to the evmc::MockedHost testing utility around account storage and selfdestructs. #661 #662 #670

Fixed

• Added Shanghai EVM revision. #604
• Added EVMC_LATEST_STABLE_REVISON: alias for the latest known EVM revision with finalized specification. #605

  solc --bin Contract.sol -o .
  evmc run --create Contract.bin --input 370158ea

• evmc run tool accepts both hex-strings or file paths for code and --input arguments. #574
• New static C++ library evmc::hex added with procedures for hex encoding/decoding. Hex-strings are used by EVMC and related projects for internal testing. #575
