build(deps): bump @hashgraph/sdk from 2.69.0 to 2.72.0 in /tools/whbar-hardhat-example

[dependabot]

Bumps @hashgraph/sdk from 2.69.0 to 2.72.0.

Release notes

Sourced from @​hashgraph/sdk's releases.

v2.72.0

This release introduces important improvements to transaction validation and fee flexibility in the Hiero SDK. These changes enhance both security and usability for developers working with smart contracts and scheduled transactions.

Enhancements

• Validation for Negative Gas: Added validation in ContractExecuteTransaction to prevent setting a negative gas value, ensuring safer transaction execution and reducing the risk of invalid or rejected transactions. #3317
• Custom Fees in Scheduled Transactions: Added support for including CustomFee in scheduled transaction bodies, enabling more flexible and transparent fee structures when scheduling transactions. #3254

Full Changelog: hiero-ledger/hiero-sdk-js@v2.71.1...v2.72.0

v2.71.1

What's Changed

• fix: tck server by @​0xivanov in hiero-ledger/hiero-sdk-js#3311
• chore(release): v2.71.1 by @​venilinvasilev in hiero-ledger/hiero-sdk-js#3312

Full Changelog: hiero-ledger/hiero-sdk-js@v2.71.0...v2.71.1

v2.71.0

What's Changed

This release introduces enhancements for async client initialization across both web and native (React Native / Expo) environments, support for HIP-1046, and stricter validations across multiple APIs. These updates improve client reliability, developer experience, and transaction safety.

Enhancements

• setStakedAccountId and setStakedNodeId are now explicitly mutually exclusive. Setting one clears the other.

• setTransferAccountId and setTransferContractId are now explicitly mutually exclusive. Setting one clears the other.

• Async Client Initialization (WebClient):
  Added new async initialization methods that fetch the latest address book during setup unless explicitly disabled via scheduleNetworkUpdate = false:

  • WebClient.forMainnetAsync()
  • WebClient.forTestnetAsync()
  • WebClient.forPreviewnetAsync()
  • WebClient.forNameAsync(name)

• Async Client Initialization (NativeClient):
  Added async initialization methods for React Native / Expo users, also defaulting to auto-updating the address book:

  • NativeClient.forMainnetAsync()
  • NativeClient.forTestnetAsync()
  • NativeClient.forPreviewnetAsync()
  • NativeClient.forNameAsync(networkName)

• HIP-1046 Support: Enabled in native environments, expanding protocol support. HIP-1046.

• Contract Deletion:
  Implemented permanentRemoval in ContractDeleteTransaction, enabling permanent contract deletion behavior.

• Contract Updates:
  Added ability to remove the auto-renew account in ContractUpdateTransaction by setting it to 0.0.0.

• Contract Creation:
  Validation added to reject gas < 0 in ContractCreateTransaction.

v2.72.0

Added

• Validation for negative gas in ContractExecuteTransaction, ensuring safer transaction execution. #3317
• Support for CustomFee in scheduled transaction body, enabling more flexible fee structures in scheduled transactions. #3254

v2.71.0

Added

• Async client initialization support for WebClient to allow fetching the latest address book during setup:

  • WebClient.forMainnetAsync()
  • WebClient.forTestnetAsync()
  • WebClient.forPreviewnetAsync()
  • WebClient.forNameAsync(name) #3274

  These methods default to performing an address book update unless scheduleNetworkUpdate is explicitly set to false, improving client reliability.

• Async client initialization for NativeClient (intended for React Native / Expo users), allowing automatic address book updates at instantiation time. #3285

  • NativeClient.forMainnetAsync()
  • NativeClient.forTestnetAsync()
  • NativeClient.forPreviewnetAsync()
  • NativeClient.forNameAsync(networkName)

  These methods fetch the latest address book unless scheduleNetworkUpdate is explicitly set to false.

• Support for HIP-1046 (HIP Link): Enabled in native environments to expand protocol capabilities. #3283

• Implemented permanentRemoval in ContractDeleteTransaction, enabling permanent contract deletion behavior. #3304

• Added ability to remove auto-renew account in ContractUpdateTransaction by setting it to 0.0.0.

• Added validation in ContractCreateTransaction to reject gas values less than 0.

• Added validations in hex.js to reject invalid hex string decoding. #3299

Changed

• Native clients (React Native / Expo) now attempt to retrieve node addresses from mirror nodes before falling back to hardcoded values in Web environments. #3283
• Made setStakedAccountId and setStakedNodeId explicitly mutually exclusive. Setting one clears the other.
• Made setTransferAccountId and setTransferContractId explicitly mutually exclusive. Setting one clears the other. #3299

Fixed

• Fixed a bug where an error status triggered the error callback twice. #3280

v2.71.0-beta.0

Added

• Added maxAutomaticTokenAssociations property with integration test #3289

v2.70.0

⚠️ Important Notice
Starting from this version (v2.70.0), we will be releasing all packages under both the @hiero-ledger and @hashgraph namespaces for a transitional period.
Eventually, @hashgraph/* packages will be deprecated and all development will continue solely under the @hiero-ledger/* scope.
