A minor update 0.3.10 for our nanotime
package is now on CRAN. nanotime
relies on the RcppCCTZ
package (as well as the RcppDate
package for additional C++ operations) and offers efficient high(er)
resolution time parsing and formatting up to nanosecond resolution,
using the bit64
package for the actual integer64 arithmetic. Initially
implemented using the S3 system, it has benefitted greatly from a
rigorous refactoring by Leonardo who not only rejigged
nanotime internals in S4 but also added new S4 types for
periods, intervals and durations.
This release updates one S4 methods to very recent changes in r-devel
for which CRAN had reached out.
This concerns the setdiff() method when applied to two
nanotime objects. As it only affected R 4.5.0, due next
April, if rebuilt in the last two or so weeks it will not have been
visible to that many users, if any. In any event, it now works again for
that setup too, and should be going forward.
We also retired one demo function from the very early days,
apparently it relied on ggplot2 features that have since
moved on. If someone would like to help out and resurrect the demo,
please get in touch. We also cleaned out some no longer used tests, and
updated DESCRIPTION to what is required now. The NEWS snippet below has
the full details.
Changes in version 0.3.10 (2024-09-16)
Thanks to my CRANberries, there is a diffstat report for this release. More details and examples are at the nanotime page; code, issue tickets etc at the GitHub repository – and all documentation is provided at the nanotime documentation site.
If you like this or other open-source work I do, you can sponsor me at GitHub.
