v2.62.0

What's changed

This release enhances account alias handling in the SDK and introduces new testing and documentation improvements for contract queries and transaction verification. It also includes development dependency upgrades to maintain compatibility and security.

Enhancements

• Improved Account Alias Handling: Added support for hollow account detection (num=0 with alias) in AccountId. This ensures more accurate handling of aliases and improves protobuf conversion logic.

• Protobuf Conversion Updates: Enhanced AccountId behavior with more explicit conversion rules for:

  • Both AccountId number and alias set
  • Only alias set
  • Only number set
    Comprehensive test coverage has been included.
