libsecp256k1 v0.7.0

on GitHub

This release is primarily a maintenance release. Besides many minor internal fixes and improvements, a handful of changes affect the public API and thus break API and ABI compatibility. The most notable changes are:

• The pointers secp256k1_context_static and secp256k1_context_no_precomp to the constant context objects are now const.
• Removed previously deprecated function aliases secp256k1_ec_privkey_<operation> in favor of secp256k1_ec_seckey_<operation>.
• Starting with this release, building with CMake is no longer considered experimental. Traditional GNU Autotools builds (./configure and make) remain fully supported.
