Release 0.8.4 is now on CRAN (with a little delay due to vacations, and we
even got lucky in getting it out now rather than at the end). The relevant
NEWS entry is below.
0.8.4 2010-07-09
o new sugar vector functions: rep, rep_len, rep_each, rev, head, tail,
diag
o sugar has been extended to matrices: The Matrix class now extends the
Matrix_Base template that implements CRTP. Currently sugar functions
for matrices are: outer, col, row, lower_tri, upper_tri, diag
o The unit tests have been reorganised into fewer files with one call
each to cxxfunction() (covering multiple tests) resulting in a
significant speedup
o The Date class now uses the same mktime() replacement that R uses
(based on original code from the timezone library by Arthur Olson)
permitting wide date ranges on all operating systems
o The FastLM/example has been updated, a new benchmark based on the
historical Longley data set has been added
o RcppStringVector now uses std::vector<std::string> internally
o setting the .Data slot of S4 objects did not work properly
