The second release of the still fairly new qlcal package arrivied at CRAN today.
qlcal is based on the calendaring subset of QuantLib. It is provided (for the R package) as a set of included files, so the package is self-contained and does not depend on an external QuantLib library (which can be demanding to build). qlcal covers over sixty country / market calendars and can compute holiday lists, its complement (i.e. business day lists) and much more.
This release brings a further package simplification from removing a few more files not needed for just calendaring, as well as an update 2022 calendar for China from the just-release 1.25 version of QuantLib.
Changes in version 0.0.2 (2022-01-21)
Further minimize set of files needed for calendaring
