RQuantLib 0.4.13: Routine Update

A new release 0.4.13 of RQuantLib arrived on CRAN yesterday, and has been uploaded to Debian as well.

QuantLib is a very comprehensice free/open-source library for quantitative finance; RQuantLib connects it to the R environment and language.

This updates RQuantLib to a few now-deprecated (daycount convention) interfaces in QuantLib release 1.23. As the last release was sixteen months ago, we also updated a few standard packaging aspects (such as use of r-ci), updated README.md and DESCRIPTION and fixed an old typo. No other changes, no new interfaces.

Changes in RQuantLib version 0.4.13 (2021-09-02)

  • Changes in RQuantLib code:

    • Small updates to DESCRIPTION and README.md

    • Switch CI use to r-ci

    • An eleven-year old typo was correct in a manual page (Dirk in #156 fixing #155 with thanks to @klin133)

    • Daycount convention calls deprecated in QuantLib 1.23 were updated (Dirk in #157)

    • Updated remaining http:// URLs in documentation to https://

Courtesy of my CRANberries, there is also a diffstat report for the this release. As always, more detailed information is on the RQuantLib page. Questions, comments etc should go to the new rquantlib-devel mailing list. Issue tickets can be filed at the GitHub repo.

If you like this or other open-source work I do, you can now sponsor me at GitHub.
