Last Monday, Conrad Sanderson released version 1.2.10 of his most excellent
Armadillo templated C++ library for
linear algebra; I followed up the same day with version 0.2.19 of our
RcppArmadillo
wrapper for R based on
our Rcpp
library. However, the chief gatekeeper at CRAN took
a well-deserved vacation last week, and with that it arrived only today on
CRAN.

The short NEWS file extract follows below containing just Conrad’s entry for 1.2.0. No further changes from our side (and the benchmark comparison between R, compiled R and Rcpp for computing a VAR(1) dataset which I blogged about yesterday is only in SVN and will be in the next release.)
0.2.19 2011-04-18
o Upgraded to Armadillo version 1.2.0 "Unscrupulous Carbon Emitter"
* Added ability to use Blas & Lapack libraries with capitalised
function names
* Reduction of pedantic compiler warnings
And courtesy of
CRANberries, here are
the
diffs to the previous release.
