Relatively quickly after version 0.4.5 of RProtoBuf was released, we have a new version 0.4.6 to announce which appeared on CRAN today.
RProtoBuf provides R bindings for the Google Protocol Buffers (“Protobuf”) data encoding and serialization library used and released by Google, and deployed as a language and operating-system agnostic protocol by numerous projects.
This version contains a contributed bug-fix pull request covering conversion of zero-length vectors, and adding native support for S4 objects. At the request / suggestion of the CRAN maintainers, it also uncomments a LaTeX macro in the vignette (corresponding to our recent JSS paper paper) which older R versions do not (yet) have in their jss.cls
file.
Changes in RProtoBuf version 0.4.6 (2016-09-08)
CRANberries also provides a diff to the previous release. The RProtoBuf page has an older package vignette, a ‘quick’ overview vignette, a unit test summary vignette, and the pre-print for the JSS paper. Questions, comments etc should go to the GitHub issue tracker off the GitHub repo.
