RcppAnnoy 0.0.8

An new version 0.0.8 of RcppAnnoy, our Rcpp-based R integration of the nifty Annoy library by Erik, is now on CRAN. Annoy is a small, fast, and lightweight C++ template header library for approximate nearest neighbours.

This release pulls in a few suggested changes which had piled up since the last release.

Changes in this version are summarized here:

Changes in version 0.0.8 (2016-10-01)

  • New functions getNNsByItemList and getNNsByVectorList, by Michael Phan-Ba in #12

  • Added destructor (PR #14 by Michael Phan-Ba)

  • Extended templatization (PR #11 by Dan Dillon)

  • Switched to run.sh for Travis (PR #17)

  • Added test for admissible value to addItem (PR #18 closing issue #13)

Courtesy of CRANberries, there is also a diffstat report for this release.
