Contract Structure & Versions

Code License

// SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT

Solidity Versions

pragma solidity 0.8.7;              // A specific version
pragma solidity ^0.8.7;             // Version 0.8.7 or higher
pragma solidity >=0.8.7 <0.9.0;     // Only versions including or greater than 0.8.7

Contract Template

pragma solidity ^0.8.0;

contract HelloWorld {
}

Import

  • When you have multiple files and you want to import one file into another, Solidity uses the importkeyword:

import "./someothercontract.sol";

contract newContract is SomeOtherContract {
}
  • So if we had a file named someothercontract.sol in the same directory as this contract (that's what the ./means), it would get imported by the compiler.

  • Imports can also be renamed when being imported:

import {WETH9Test as Handler} from "./WETH9Test.t.sol";

contract WETH9TestInvariant is Test, Counter {

    Handler public handler;

    function setUp() public {
        handler = new Handler();
    }
}
