A step‑by‑step guide to migrate Solidity contracts from revert strings to custom errors, covering declaration, replacement, ABI updates, testing, and gas verification.
Solidity custom errors save gas by replacing string reverts with typed, compact payloads. Learn how to declare, use, and verify them, plus the limits and common pitfalls in this practical guide.
I am finalizing a small Solidity contract that will be deployed once and called only occasionally, so the dominant cost is deployment rather than per-call execution. Since an out-of-gas failure consumes all supplied gas while reverting state, I want the deployed bytecode as small as reasonably possible before I commit to a compiler configuration. The documen
