RProtoBuf provides R bindings for the Google Protocol Buffers ("ProtoBuf") data encoding and serialization library used and released by Google, and deployed fairly widely in numerous projects as a language and operating-system agnostic protocol.
A new releases RProtoBuf 0.4.11 appeared on CRAN earlier today. Not unlike the other recent releases, it is mostly a maintenance release which switches two of the vignettes over to using the pinp package and its template for vignettes.
Changes in RProtoBuf version 0.4.11 (2017-10-03)
The
RProtoBuf-introandRProtoBuf-quickrefvignettes were converted to Rmarkdown using the templates and style file from the pinp package.A few minor internal upgrades
CRANberries also provides a diff to the previous release. The RProtoBuf page has copies of the (older) package vignette, the '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.
