[Rcpp-devel] [ANN] Rcpp 0.9.5

[Dirk Eddelbuettel]

Rcpp 0.9.5 arrived on CRAN earlier today; I don't think I have gotten the
ping of the Windows build yet.  It is mostly a maintenance release with a few
small fixes (incl the one awaited by Baptiste).  The NEWS entries are is
below; the ChangeLog entries are on their webpage.

Cheers, Dirk


0.9.5   2011-07-05

    o   New Rcpp-FAQ examples on using the plugin maker for inline's
        cxxfunction(), and on setting row and column names for matrices
        
    o   New sugar functions: mean, var, sd

    o   Minor correction and extension to STL documentation in Rcpp-quickref

    o   wrap() is now resilient to NULL pointers passed as in const char *
    
    o   loadRcppModules() gains a "direct" argument to expose the module instead
        of exposing what is inside it

    o   Suppress a spurious warning from R CMD check on packages created with
        Rcpp.package.skeleton(..., module=TRUE)

    o   Some fixes and improvements for Rcpp sugar function 'rlnorm()'
