Earlier this evening, I rolled up a new version of
RQuantLib. It
has been pushed to
CRAN and
Debian, and source and binary version should
appear on the respective mirror networks in due course.
This version, the first in a new '0.3.*' release series, contains all the
work that Khanh Nguyen did during his Google Summer of Code participation
which I had mentioned a while
back and for which I acted as mentor.
And Khanh did great. We now have a lot more Fixed Income
functionality; I include the full ChangeLog entry below. I also added some
simple calendaring support and the odd fix here or there while mentoring.
All of this had been available while technically 'in progress' thanks to
support provided by the R-Forge project
hosting where SVN checkouts as well as nightly binaries are provided.
A few more details are on the
RQuantLib page
and I hope to add a few more examples.
As promised, the ChangeLog entry:
