A fresh minor release of the inline package got to CRAN today, following on the November release which had marked the first release in three and half years. inline facilitates writing code in-line in simple string expressions or short files. The package was used quite extensively by Rcpp in the very early days before Rcpp Attributes arrived on the scene providing an even better alternative for its use cases. inline is still used by rstan and a number of other packages.
In the November
release we accommodated upcoming R-devel changes on setting
R_NO_REMAP by conditioning on the release version. It turns
that this does not get when the #define independently so
this needed a small refinement which this version brings. No other
changes were made.
The NEWS extract follows and details the changes some
more.

Thanks to my CRANberries, you can also look at a diff to the previous release. Questions, comments etc should go to the rcpp-devel mailing list off the R-Forge page. Bugs reports are welcome at the GitHub issue tracker as well (where one can also search among open or closed issues).
