Conrad put up a maintenance release 4.600.4 of Armadillo a few days ago. As in the past, we tested this with number of pre-releases and test builds against the now over one hundred CRAN dependents of our RcppArmadillo package. The tests passed fine as usual, and results are as always in the rcpp-logs repository.
Changes are summarized below based on the NEWS.Rd file.
Changes in RcppArmadillo version 0.4.600.4.0 (2015-01-23)
Upgraded to Armadillo release Version 4.600.4 (still "Off The Reservation")
Speedups in the transpose operation
Small bug fixes
Courtesy of CRANberries, there is also a diffstat report for the most recent release. As always, more detailed information is on the RcppArmadillo page. Questions, comments etc should go to the rcpp-devel mailing list off the R-Forge page.
