CHANGES IN R 3.2.2:
SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES:
* It is now easier to use secure downloads from https:// URLs on
builds which support them: no longer do non-default options need
to be selected to do so. In particular, packages can be
installed from repositories which offer https:// URLs, and those
listed by setRepositories() now do so (for some of their
mirrors).
Support for https:// URLs is available on Windows, and on other
platforms if support for libcurl was compiled in and if that
supports the https protocol (system installations can be expected
to do). So https:// support can be expected except on rather old
OSes (an example being OS X 'Snow Leopard', where a non-system
version of libcurl can be used).
(Windows only) The default method for accessing URLs _via_
download.file() and url() has been changed to be "wininet" using
Windows API calls. This changes the way proxies need to be set
and security settings made: there have been some reports of sites
being inaccessible under the new default method (but the previous
methods remain available).
NEW FEATURES:
* cmdscale() gets new option list. for increased flexibility when a
list should be returned.
* configure now supports texinfo version 6.0, which (unlike the
change from 4.x to 5.0) is a minor update. (Wish of PR#16456.)
* (Non-Windows only) download.file() with default method = "auto"
now chooses "libcurl" if that is available and a https:// or
ftps:// URL is used.
* (Windows only) setInternet2(TRUE) is now the default. The
command-line option --internet2 and environment variable
R_WIN_INTERNET2 are now ignored.
Thus by default the "internal" method for download.file() and
url() uses the "wininet" method: to revert to the previous
default use setInternet2(FALSE).
This means that https:// can be read by default by
download.file() (they have been readable by file() and url()
since R 3.2.0).
There are implications for how proxies need to be set (see
?download.file): also, cacheOK = FALSE is not supported.
* chooseCRANmirror() and chooseBioCmirror() now offer HTTPS mirrors
in preference to HTTP mirrors. This changes the interpretation
of their ind arguments: see their help pages.
* capture.output() gets optional arguments type and split to pass
to sink(), and hence can be used to capture messages.
C-LEVEL FACILITIES:
* Header Rconfig.h now defines HAVE_ALLOCA_H if the platform has
the alloca.h header (it is needed to define alloca on Solaris and
AIX, at least: see 'Writing R Extensions' for how to use it).
INSTALLATION and INCLUDED SOFTWARE:
* The libtool script generated by configure has been modified to
support FreeBSD >= 10 (PR#16410).
BUG FIXES:
* The HTML help page links to demo code failed due to a change in R
3.2.0. (PR#16432)
* If the na.action argument was used in model.frame(), the original
data could be modified. (PR#16436)
* getGraphicsEvent() could cause a crash if a graphics window was
closed while it was in use. (PR#16438)
* matrix(x, nr, nc, byrow = TRUE) failed if x was an object of type
"expression".
* strptime() could overflow the allocated storage on the C stack
when the timezone had a non-standard format much longer than the
standard formats. (Part of PR#16328.)
* options(OutDec = s) now signals a warning (which will become an
error in the future) when s is not a string with exactly one
character, as that has been a documented requirement.
* prettyNum() gains a new option input.d.mark which together with
other changes, e.g., the default for decimal.mark, fixes some
format()ting variants with non-default getOption("OutDec") such
as in PR#16411.
* download.packages() failed for type equal to either "both" or
"binary". (Reported by Dan Tenenbaum.)
* The dendrogram method of labels() is much more efficient for
large dendrograms, now using rapply(). (Comment #15 of PR#15215)
* The "port" algorithm of nls() could give spurious errors.
(Reported by Radford Neal.)
* Reference classes that inherited from reference classes in
another package could invalidate methods of the inherited class.
Fixing this requires adding the ability for methods to be
"external", with the object supplied explicitly as the first
argument, named .self. See "Inter-Package Superclasses" in the
documentation.
* readBin() could fail on the SPARC architecture due to alignment
issues. (Reported by Radford Neal.)
* qt(*, df=Inf, ncp=.) now uses the natural qnorm() limit instead
of returning NaN. (PR#16475)
* Auto-printing of S3 and S4 values now searches for print() in the
base namespace and show() in the methods namespace instead of
searching the global environment.
* polym() gains a coefs = NULL argument and returns class "poly"
just like poly() which gets a new simple=FALSE option. They now
lead to correct predict()ions, e.g., on subsets of the original
data.
* rhyper(nn, <large>) now works correctly. (PR#16489)
* ttkimage() did not (and could not) work so was removed. Ditto for
tkimage.cget() and tkimage.configure(). Added two Ttk widgets and
missing subcommands for Tk's image command: ttkscale(),
ttkspinbox(), tkimage.delete(), tkimage.height(),
tkimage.inuse(), tkimage.type(), tkimage.types(),
tkimage.width(). (PR#15372, PR#16450)
* getClass("foo") now also returns a class definition when it is
found in the cache more than once.

- Upstream release 3.2.1
- Improvement of build: include libcurl and texlive-dvips/
texlive-hevetic
- Most important
CHANGES IN R 3.2.1:
NEW FEATURES:
* utf8ToInt() now checks that its input is valid UTF-8 and returns
NA if it is not.
* install.packages() now allows type = "both" with repos = NULL if
it can infer the type of file.
* nchar(x, *) and nzchar(x) gain a new argument keepNA which
governs how the result for NAs in x is determined. For the R
3.2.x series, the default remains FALSE which is fully back
compatible. From R 3.3.0, the default will change to keepNA = NA
and you are advised to consider this for code portability.
* news() more flexibly extracts dates from package NEWS.Rd files.
* lengths(x) now also works (trivially) for atomic x and hence can
be used more generally as an efficient replacement of sapply(x,
length) and similar.
* The included version of PCRE has been updated to 8.37, a bug-fix
release.
* diag() no longer duplicates a matrix when extracting its
diagonal.
* as.character.srcref() gains an argument to allow characters
corresponding to a range of source references to be extracted.
BUG FIXES:
* acf() and ccf() now guarantee values strictly in [-1,1] (instead
of sometimes very slightly outside). PR#15832.
* as.integer("111111111111") now gives NA (with a warning) as it
does for the corresponding numeric or negative number coercions.
Further, as.integer(M + 0.1) now gives M (instead of NA) when M
is the maximal representable integer.
* On some platforms nchar(x, "c") and nchar(x, "w") would return
values (possibly NA) for inputs which were declared to be UTF-8
but were not, or for invalid strings without a marked encoding in
a multi-byte locale, rather than give an error. Additional
checks have been added to mitigate this.
* apply(a, M, function(u) c(X = ., Y = .)) again has dimnames
containing "X" and "Y" (as in R < 3.2.0).
* (Windows only) In some cases, the --clean option to R CMD INSTALL
could fail. (PR#16178)
* (Windows only) choose.files() would occasionally include
characters from the result of an earlier call in the result of a
later one. (PR#16270)
* A change in RSiteSearch() in R 3.2.0 caused it to submit invalid
URLs. (PR#16329)
* Rscript and command line R silently ignored incomplete statements
at the end of a script; now they are reported as parse errors.
(PR#16350)
* Parse data for very long strings was not stored. (PR#16354)
* plotNode(), the workhorse of the plot method for "dendrogram"s is
no longer recursive, thanks to Suharto Anggono, and hence also
works for deeply nested dendrograms. (PR#15215)
* The parser could overflow internally when given numbers in
scientific format with extremely large exponents. (PR#16358)
* If the CRAN mirror was not set, install.packages(type = "both")
and related functions could repeatedly query the user for it.
(Part of PR#16362)
* The low-level functions .rowSums() etc. did not check the length
of their argument, so could segfault. (PR#16367)
* The quietly argument of library() is now correctly propagated
from .getRequiredPackages2().
* Under some circumstances using the internal PCRE when building R
fron source would cause external libs such as -llzma to be
omitted from the main link.
* The .Primitive default methods of the logic operators, i.e., !, &
and |, now give correct error messages when appropriate, e.g.,
for `&`(TRUE) or `!`(). (PR#16385)
* cummax(x) now correctly propagates NAs also when x is of type
integer and begins with an NA.
* summaryRprof() could fail when the profile contained only two
records. (PR#16395)
* HTML vignettes opened using vignette() did not support links into
the rest of the HTML help system. (Links worked properly when
the vignette was opened using browseVignettes() or from within
the help system.)
* arima(*, xreg = .) (for d >= 1) computes estimated variances
based on a the number of effective observations as in R version
3.0.1 and earlier. (PR#16278)
* slotNames(.) is now correct for "signature" objects (mostly used
internally in methods).
* On some systems, the first string comparison after a locale
change would result in NA.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Apr 16 14:52:43 UTC 2015 - detlef.steuer@gmx.de
- Upstream release 3.2.0
- Most important
CHANGES IN 3.2.0:
NEW FEATURES:
* anyNA() gains a recursive argument.
* When x is missing and names is not false (including the default
value), Sys.getenv(x, names) returns an object of class "Dlist"
and hence prints tidily.
* (Windows.) shell() no longer consults the environment variable
SHELL: too many systems have been encountered where it was set
incorrectly (usually to a path where software was compiled, not
where it was installed). R_SHELL, the preferred way to select a
non-default shell, can be used instead.
* Some unusual arguments to embedFonts() can now be specified as
character vectors, and the defaults have been changed
accordingly.
* Functions in the Summary group duplicate less. (PR#15798)
* (Unix-alikes.) system(cmd, input = ) now uses
'shell-execution-environment' redirection, which will be more
natural if cmd is not a single command (but requires a
POSIX-compliant shell). (Wish of PR#15508)
* read.fwf() and read.DIF() gain a fileEncoding argument, for
convenience.
* Graphics devices can add attributes to their description in
.Device and .Devices. Several of those included with R use a
"filepath" attribute.
* pmatch() uses hashing in more cases and so is faster at the
expense of using more memory. (PR#15697)
* pairs() gains new arguments to select sets of variables to be
plotted against each other.
* file.info(, extra_cols = FALSE) allows a minimal set of columns
to be computed on Unix-alikes: on some systems without
properly-configured caching this can be significantly faster with
large file lists.
* New function dir.exists() in package base to test efficiently
whether one or more paths exist and are directories.
* dput() and friends gain new controls hexNumeric and digits17
which output double and complex quantities as, respectively,
binary fractions (exactly, see sprintf("%a")) and as decimals
with up to 17 significant digits.
* save(), saveRDS() and serialize() now support ascii = NA which
writes ASCII files using sprintf("%a") for double/complex
quantities. This is read-compatible with ascii = TRUE but avoids
binary->decimal->binary conversions with potential loss of
precision. Unfortunately the Windows C runtime's lack of C99
compliance means that the format cannot be read correctly there
in R before 3.1.2.
* The default for formatC(decimal.mark =) has been changed to be
getOption("OutDec"); this makes it more consistent with format()
and suitable for use in print methods, e.g. those for classes
"density", "ecdf", "stepfun" and "summary.lm".
getOption("OutDec") is now consulted by the print method for
class "kmeans", by cut(), dendrogram(), plot.ts() and quantile()
when constructing labels and for the report from legend(trace =
TRUE).
(In part, wish of PR#15819.)
* printNum() and hence format() and formatC() give a warning if
big.mark and decimal.mark are set to the same value (period and
comma are not uncommonly used for each, and this is a check that
conventions have not got mixed).
* merge() can create a result which uses long vectors on 64-bit
platforms.
* dget() gains a new argument keep.source which defaults to FALSE
for speed (dput() and dget() are most often used for data objects
where this can make dget() many times faster).
* Packages may now use a file of common macro definitions in their
help files, and may import definitions from other packages.
* A number of macros have been added in the new share/Rd directory
for use in package overview help pages, and promptPackage() now
makes use of them.
* tools::parse_Rd() gains a new permissive argument which converts
unrecognized macros into text. This is used by
utils:::format.bibentry to allow LaTeX markup to be ignored.
* options(OutDec =) can now specify a multi-byte character, e.g.,
options(OutDec = "\u00b7") in a UTF-8 locale.
* is.recursive(x) is no longer true when x is an external pointer,
a weak reference or byte code; the first enables all.equal(x, x)
when x <- getClass(.).
* ls() (aka objects()) and as.list.environment() gain a new
argument sorted.
* The "source" attribute (which has not been added to functions by
R since before R version 2.14.0) is no longer treated as special.
* Function returnValue() has been added to give on.exit() code
access to a function's return value for debugging purposes.
* crossprod(x, y) allows more matrix coercions when x or y are
vectors, now equalling t(x) %*% y in these cases (also reported
by Radford Neal). Similarly, tcrossprod(x,y) and %*% work in
more cases with vector arguments.
* Utility function dynGet() useful for detecting cycles, aka
infinite recursions.
* The byte-code compiler and interpreter include new instructions
that allow many scalar subsetting and assignment and scalar
arithmetic operations to be handled more efficiently. This can
result in significant performance improvements in scalar
numerical code.
* apply(m, 2, identity) is now the same as the matrix m when it has
_named_ row names.
* A new function debuggingState() has been added, allowing to
temporarily turn off debugging.
* example() gets a new optional argument run.donttest and
tools::Rd2ex() a corresponding commentDonttest, with a default
such that example(..) in help examples will run \donttest code
only if used interactively (a change in behaviour).
* rbind.data.frame() gains an optional argument make.row.names, for
potential speedup.
* New function extSoftVersion() to report on the versions of
third-party software in use in this session. Currently reports
versions of zlib, bzlib, the liblzma from xz, PCRE, ICU, TRE and
the iconv implementation.
A similar function grSoftVersion() in package grDevices reports
on third-party graphics software.
Function tcltk::tclVersion() reports the Tcl/Tk version.
* Calling callGeneric() without arguments now works with primitive
generics to some extent.
* vapply(x, FUN, FUN.VALUE) is more efficient notably for large
length(FUN.VALUE); as extension of PR#16061.
* as.table() now allows tables with one or more dimensions of
length 0 (such as as.table(integer())).
* names(x) <- NULL now clears the names of call and ... objects.
* library() will report a warning when an insufficient dependency
version is masking a sufficient one later on the library search
path.
* A new plot() method for class "raster" has been added.
* New check_packages_in_dir_changes() function in package tools for
conveniently analyzing how changing sources impacts the check
results of their reverse dependencies.
* Speed-up from Peter Haverty for ls() and
methods:::.requirePackage() speeding up package loading.
(PR#16133)
* New get0() function, combining exists() and get() in one call,
for efficiency.
* match.call() gains an envir argument for specifying the
environment from which to retrieve the ... in the call, if any;
this environment was wrong (or at least undesirable) when the
definition argument was a function.
* topenv() has been made .Internal() for speedup, based on Peter
Haverty's proposal in PR#16140.
* getOption() no longer calls options() in the main case.
* Optional use of libcurl (version 7.28.0 from Oct 2012 or later)
for Internet access:
* capabilities("libcurl") reports if this is available.
* libcurlVersion() reports the version in use, and other
details of the "libcurl" build including which URL schemes it
supports.
* curlGetHeaders() retrieves the headers for http://, https://,
ftp:// and ftps:// URLs: analysis of these headers can
provide insights into the `existence' of a URL (it might for
example be permanently redirected) and is so used in R CMD
check --as-cran.
* download.file() has a new optional method "libcurl" which
will handle more URL schemes, follow redirections, and allows
simultaneous downloads of multiple URLs.
* url() has a new method "libcurl" which handles more URL
schemes and follows redirections. The default method is
controlled by a new option url.method, which applies also to
the opening of URLs _via_ file() (which happens implicitly in
functions such as read.table.)
* When file() or url() is invoked with a https:// or ftps://
URL which the current method cannot handle, it switches to a
suitable method if one is available.
* (Windows.) The DLLs internet.dll and internet2.dll have been
merged. In this version it is safe to switch (repeatedly)
between the internal and Windows internet functions within an R
session.
The Windows internet functions are still selected by flag
--internet2 or setInternet2(). This can be overridden for an
url() connection _via_ its new method argument.
download.file() has new method "wininet", selected as the default
by --internet2 or setInternet2().
* parent.env<- can no longer modify the parent of a locked
namespace or namespace imports environment. Contributed by Karl
Millar.
* New function isLoadedNamespace() for readability and speed.
* names(env) now returns all the object names of an environment
env, equivalently to ls(env, all.names = TRUE, sorted = FALSE)
and also to the names of the corresponding list,
names(as.list(env, all.names = TRUE)). Note that although
names() returns a character vector, the names have no particular
ordering.
* The memory manager now grows the heap more aggressively. This
reduces the number of garbage collections, in particular while
data or code are loaded, at the expense of slightly increasing
the memory footprint.
* New function trimws() for removing leading/trailing whitespace.
* cbind() and rbind() now consider S4 inheritance during S3
dispatch and also obey deparse.level.
* cbind() and rbind() will delegate recursively to methods::cbind2
(methods::rbind2) when at least one argument is an S4 object and
S3 dispatch fails (due to ambiguity).
* (Windows.) download.file(quiet = FALSE) now uses text rather
than Windows progress bars in non-interactive use.
* New function hsearch_db() in package utils for building and
retrieving the help search database used by help.search(), along
with functions for inspecting the concepts and keywords in the
help search database.
* New function .getNamespaceInfo(), a no-check version of
getNamespaceInfo() mostly for internal speedups.
* The help search system now takes \keyword entries in Rd files
which are not standard keywords (as given in KEYWORDS in the R
documentation directory) as concepts. For standard keyword
entries the corresponding descriptions are additionally taken as
concepts.
* New lengths() function for getting the lengths of all elements in
a list.
* New function toTitleCase() in package tools, tailored to package
titles.
* The matrix methods of cbind() and rbind() allow matrices as
inputs which have 2^31 or more elements. (For cbind(), wish of
PR#16198.)
* The default method of image() has an explicit check for a numeric
or logical matrix (which was always required).
* URLencode() will not by default encode further URLs which appear
to be already encoded.
* BIC(mod) and BIC(mod, mod2) now give non-NA numbers for arima()
fitted models, as nobs(mod) now gives the number of "used"
observations for such models. This fixes PR#16198, quite
differently than proposed there.
* The print() methods for "htest", "pairwise.htest" and
"power.htest" objects now have a digits argument defaulting to (a
function of) getOption("digits"), and influencing all printed
numbers coherently. Unavoidably, this changes the display of
such test results in some cases.
* Code completion for namespaces now recognizes all loaded
namespaces, rather than only the ones that are also attached.
* The code completion mechanism can now be replaced by a
user-specified completer function, for (temporary) situations
where the usual code completion is inappropriate.
* unzip() will now warn if it is able to detect truncation when
unpacking a file of 4GB or more (related to PR#16243).
* methods() reports S4 in addition to S3 methods; output is
simplified when the class argument is used. .S3methods() and
methods::.S4methods() report S3 and S4 methods separately.
* Higher order functions such as the apply functions and Reduce()
now force arguments to the functions they apply in order to
eliminate undesirable interactions between lazy evaluation and
variable capture in closures. This resolves PR#16093.
INSTALLATION and INCLUDED SOFTWARE:
* The \donttest sections of R's help files can be tested by
make check TEST_DONTTEST=TRUE .
* It is possible to request the use of system valgrind headers
_via_ configure option --with-system-valgrind-headers: note the
possible future incompatibility of such headers discussed in the
'R Installation and Administration' manual. (Wish of PR#16068.)
* The included version of liblzma has been updated to xz-utils
5.0.7 (minor bug fixes from 5.0.5).
* configure options --with-system-zlib, --with-system-bzlib and
--with-system-pcre are now the default. For the time being there
is fallback to the versions included in the R sources if no
system versions are found or (unlikely) if they are too old.
Linux users should check that the -devel or -dev versions of
packages zlib, bzip2/libbz2 and pcre as well as
xz-devel/liblzma-dev (or similar names) are installed.
* configure by default looks for the texi2any script from texinfo
5.1 or later, rather than the makeinfo program. (makeinfo is a
link to the Perl script texi2any in texinfo 5.x.)
* R CMD INSTALL gains an option --built-timestamp=STAMP allowing
100% reproducible package building, thanks to Dirk Eddelbuettel.
UTILITIES:
* There is support for testing the \dontrun and \donttest parts of
examples in packages.
tools::testInstalledPackage() accepts new arguments
commentDontrun = FALSE and commentDonttest = FALSE.
R CMD check gains options --run-dontrun and --run-donttest.
* The HTML generated by tools::Rd2HTML() and tools::toHTML()
methods is now 'XHTML 1.0 Strict'.
* The compiler package's utility function setCompilerOptions() now
returns the old values invisibly. The initial optimization level
can also be set with the environment variable
R_COMPILER_OPTIMIZE.
* R CMD build adds a NeedsCompilation field if one is not already
present in the DESCRIPTION file.
* R CMD check gains option --test-dir to specify an alternative set
of tests to run.
* R CMD check will now by default continue with testing after many
types of errors, and will output a summary count of errors at the
end if any have occurred.
* R CMD check now checks that the Title and Description fields are
correctly terminated.
* R CMD check --as-cran now:
* checks a README.md file can be processed: this needs pandoc
installed.
* checks the existence and accessibility of URLs in the
DESCRIPTION, CITATION, NEWS.Rd and README.md files and in the
help files (provided the build has libcurl support).
* reports non-ASCII characters in R source files when there is
no package encoding declared in the DESCRIPTION file.
* reports (apparent) S3 methods exported but not registered.
* reports overwriting registered S3 methods from
base/recommended packages. (Such methods are replaced in the
affected package for the rest of the session, even if the
replacing namespace is unloaded.)
* reports if the Title field does not appear to be in title
case (see 'Writing R Extensions': there may be false
positives, but note that technical words should be
single-quoted and will then be accepted).
Most of these checks can also be selected by environment
variables: see the 'R Internals' manual.
C-LEVEL FACILITIES:
* New C API utility logspace_sum(logx[], n).
* Entry points rbinom_mu, rnbinom_mu and rmultinom are remapped (by
default) to Rf_rbinom_mu etc. This requires packages using them
to be re-installed.
* .C(DUP = FALSE) and .Fortran(DUP = FALSE) are now ignored, so
arguments are duplicated if DUP = TRUE would do so. As their
help has long said, .Call() is much preferred.
* New entry point R_allocLD, like R_alloc but guaranteed to have
sufficient alignment for long double pointers.
* isPairList() now returns TRUE for DOTSXP.
WINDOWS BUILD CHANGES:
A number of changes to the Windows build system are in development.
The following are currently in place.
* Installation using external binary distributions of zlib, bzip2,
liblzma, pcre, libpng, jpeglib and libtiff is now required, and
the build instructions have been revised.
* A new make target rsync-extsoft has been added to obtain copies
of the external libraries from CRAN.
* Building the manuals now requires texi2any from texinfo 5.1 or
later. CRAN binary builds include the manuals, but by default
builds from source will not, and they will be accessed from CRAN.
See the comments in src/gnuwin32/MkRules.dist for how to specify
the location of texi2any.
* (Windows) Changes have been made to support an experimental
Windows toolchain based on GCC 4.9.2. The default toolchain
continues to be based on GCC 4.6.3, as the new toolchain is not
yet stable enough. A change to a new toolchain is expected
during the R 3.2.x lifetime.
PACKAGE INSTALLATION:
* (Windows) The use of macro ZLIB_LIBS in file src/Makevars.win
(which has not been documented for a long time) now requires an
external libz.a to be available (it is part of the 'goodies' used
to compile Windows binary packages). It would be simpler to use
-lz instead.
* The default for option pkgType on platforms using binary packages
is now "both", so source packages will be tried if binary
versions are not available or not up to date.
There are options for what install.packages(type = "both")
(possibly called _via_ update.packages()) will do if compilation
of a source package is desirable: see ?options (under utils).
If you intend not to accept updates as source packages, you
should use update.packages(type = "binary").
DEPRECATED AND DEFUNCT:
* download.file(method = "lynx") is defunct.
* Building R using the included versions of zlib, bzip2, xz and
PCRE is deprecated: these are frozen (bar essential bug-fixes)
and will be removed for R 3.3.0.
* The configure option --with-valgrind-instrumentation=3 has been
withdrawn, as it did not work with recent valgrind headers: it is
now treated as level 2.
* The MethodsList class in package methods had been deprecated in R
2.11.0 and is defunct now. Functions using it are defunct if
they had been deprecated in R 2.11.0, and are deprecated now,
otherwise.
BUG FIXES:
* Fixed two obscure bugs in pairlist subassignment, reported by
Radford Neal as part of pqR issue 16.
* Fixes for bugs in handling empty arguments and argument matching
by name in log().
* all.equal() gains methods for environments and refClasses.
* [<- and [[<- gain S4 data.frame methods to avoid corruption of S4
class information by the S3 methods.
* callNextMethod() should now work within a .local call when ... is
absent from formals(.local).
* dput(pairlist(x)) generates a call to the pairlist constructor
instead of the list constructor.
* Fix missing() when arguments are propagated through ... .
(PR#15707)
* eigen(m) now defaults to symmetric = TRUE even when the dimnames
are asymmetric if the matrix is otherwise symmetric. (PR#16151)
* Fix issues with forwarding ... through callGeneric() and
callNextMethod(). (PR#16141)
* callGeneric() now works after a callNextMethod().
* Subclass information is kept consistent when replacing an
ordinary S4 class with an "old class" _via_ the S4Class argument
to setOldClass(). Thus, for example, a data.frame is valid for a
list argument in the signature, and a factor is valid for vector
arguments.
* In qbeta() the inversion of pbeta() is much more sophisticated.
This works better in corner cases some of which failed completely
previously (PR#15755), or were using too many iterations.
* Auto-printing no longer duplicates objects when printing is
dispatched to a method.
* kmeans(x, k) would fail when nrow(x) >= 42949673. (Comment 6 of
PR#15364)
* 'Abbreviated' locale-specific day and month names could have been
truncated in those rare locales where there are the same as the
full names.
* An irrelevant warning message from updating subclass information
was silenced (the namespace would not be writable in this case).

CHANGES IN R 3.1.3:
NEW FEATURES:
* The internal method of download.file() can now handle files
larger than 2GB on 32-bit builds which support such files (tested
on 32-bit R running on 64-bit Windows).
* kruskal.test() warns on more types of suspicious input.
* The as.dendrogram() method for "hclust" objects gains a check
argument protecting against memory explosion for invalid inputs.
* capabilities() has a new item long.double which indicates if the
build uses a long double type which is longer than double.
* nlm() no longer modifies the callback argument in place (a new
vector is allocated for each invocation, which mimics the
implicit duplication that occurred in R < 3.1.0); note that this
is a change from the previously documented behavior. (PR#15958)
* icuSetCollate() now accepts locale = "ASCII" which uses the basic
C function strcmp and so collates strings byte-by-byte in
numerical order.
* sessionInfo() tries to report the OS version in use (not just
that compiled under, and including details of Linux
distributions).
* model.frame() (used by lm() and many other modelling functions)
now warns when it drops contrasts from factors. (Wish of
PR#16119)
* install.packages() and friends now accept the value type =
"binary" as a synonym for the native binary type on the platform
(if it has one).
* Single source or binary files can be supplied for
install.packages(type = "both") and the appropriate type and
repos = NULL will be inferred.
* New function pcre_config() to report on some of the configuration
options of the version of PCRE in use. In particular, this
reports if regular expressions using \p{xx} are supported.
* (Windows.) download.file(cacheOK = FALSE) is now supported when
internet2.dll is used.
* browseURL() has been updated to work with Firefox 36.0 which has
dropped support for the -remote interface.
INSTALLATION and INCLUDED SOFTWARE:
* The included version of PCRE has been updated to 8.36.
* configure accepts MAKEINFO=texi2any as another way to ensure
texinfo 5.x is used when both 5.x and 4.x are installed.
UTILITIES:
* R CMD check now checks the packages used in \donttest sections of
the examples are specified in the DESCRIPTION file. (These are
needed to run the examples interactively.)
* R CMD check checks for the undeclared use of GNU extensions in
Makefiles, and for Makefiles with a missing final linefeed.
R CMD build will correct line endings in all Makefiles, not just
those in the src directory.
* R CMD check notes uses of library() and require() in package
code: see the section 'Suggested packages' of 'Writing R
Extensions' for good practice.
DEPRECATED AND DEFUNCT:
* The configure option --with-valgrind-instrumentation=3 is
deprecated and will be removed in R 3.2.0.
BUG FIXES:
* (Windows.) Rscript.exe was missing a manifest specifying the
modern style for common controls (e.g., the download progress
bar).
* If a package had extra documentation files but no vignette, the
HTML help system produced an empty index page.
* The parser now gives an error if a null character is included in
a string using Unicode escapes. (PR#16046)
* qr.Q() failed on complex arguments due to pre-3.0(!) typo.
(PR#16054)
* abs() failed with named arguments when the argument was complex.
(PR#16047)
* "noquote" objects may now be used as columns in dataframes.
(PR#15997)
* Some values with extremely long names were printed incorrectly.
(PR#15999)
* Extremely large exponents on zero expressed in scientific
notation (e.g. 0.0e50000) could give NaN. (PR#15976)
* download.file() reported downloaded sizes as 0KB if less than
1MB, only for R 3.1.2 and only on big-endian platforms.
* prompt() did not escape percent signs in the automatically
generated usage section of help files.
* drop.terms() dropped some of the attributes of the object it was
working with. (PR#16029)
* (Windows.) The command completion in Rgui.exe messed up the
console. (PR#15791)
* (Windows.) The choose.files() command returned a blank string
when the user asked for a single file but cancelled the request.
(PR#16074)
* Math2 S4 group generics failed to correctly dispatch "structure"-
and "nonStructure"-derived classes.
* loadNamespace() imposed undocumented restrictions on the
versionCheck parameter. (Reported by Geoff Lee.)
* Rare over-runs detected by AddressSanitizer in substr() and its
replacement version have been avoided.
_Inter alia_ that fix gives the documented behaviour for
substr(x, 1, 2) <- "" (subsequently reported as PR#16214).
* Loading packages incorrectly defining an S4 generic followed by a
function of the same name caused an erroneous cyclic namespace
dependency error.
* Declared vignette encodings are now always passed to the vignette
engine.
* Port Tomas Kalibera's fix from R-devel that restores the
loadMethod() fast path, effectively doubling the speed of S4
dispatch.
* power.t.test() and power.prop.test() now make use of the
extendInt option of uniroot() and hence work in more extreme
cases. (PR#15792)
* If a package was updated and attached when its namespace was
already loaded, it could end up with parts from one version and
parts from the other. (PR#16120)
* tools:::.Rdconv() didn't accept --encoding= due to a typo.
(PR#16121)
* Unix-alike builds without a suitable makeinfo were documented to
link the missing HTML manuals to CRAN, but did not.
* save(*, ascii=TRUE) and load() now correctly deal with NaN's.
(PR#16137)
* split.Date() retains fractional representations while avoiding
incomplete class propagation.
* R_ext/Lapack.h had not been updated for changes made by LAPACK to
the argument lists of its (largely internal) functions dlaed2 and
dlaed3. (PR#16157)
* RShowDoc("NEWS", "txt") had not been updated for the layout
changes of R 3.1.0.
* The xtfrm() method for class "Surv" has been corrected and its
description expanded.
* mode(x) <- y would incorrectly evaluate x before changing its
mode. (PR#16215)
* besselJ(1, 2^64) and besselY(..) now signal a warning, returning
NaN instead of typically segfaulting. (Issue 3 of PR#15554)
* HTML conversion of \href markup in .Rd files did not remove the
backslash from \% and so gave an invalid URL. In a related
change, the \ escape is now required in such URLs.

CHANGES IN R 3.1.2:
NEW FEATURES:
* embedFonts() now defaults to format = "ps2write" for .ps and .eps
files. This is available in Ghostscript 9.x (since 2010) whereas
the previous default, format = "pswrite", was removed in
Ghostscript 9.10.
* For consistency with [dpqr]norm(), [dp]lnorm(sdlog = 0) model a
point mass at exp(mulog) rather than return NaN (for an error).
* capabilities() now reports if ICU is compiled in for use for
collation (it is only actually used if a suitable locale is set
for collation, and never for a C locale).
* (OS X only.) Package tcltk checks when loaded if it is linked
against the CRAN X11-based Tcl/Tk and if so that the Tcl/Tk
component and the X11 libraries are installed. This allows more
informative error messages to be given advising the installation
of the missing component or of XQuartz.
The X11() device and X11-based versions of the data editor and
viewer (invoked by edit() and View() for data frames and matrices
from command-line R) check that the X11 libraries are installed
and if not advises installing XQuartz.
* icuSetCollate() allows locale = "default", and locale = "none" to
use OS services rather than ICU for collation.
Environment variable R_ICU_LOCALE can be used to set the default
ICU locale, in case the one derived from the OS locale is
inappropriate (this is currently necessary on Windows).
* New function icuGetCollate() to report on the ICU collation
locale in use (if any).
* utils::URLencode() was updated to use unreserved and reserved
characters from RFC 3986, <URL:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986>, instead of RFC 1738.
* unique(warnings()) and c(warnings()) are now supported.
* The Bioconductor 'version' used by setRepositories() now defaults
to 3.0. (It can be set at runtime _via_ environment variable
R_BIOC_VERSION.)
INSTALLATION and INCLUDED SOFTWARE:
* The configure script reports on the more important
capabilities/options which will not be compiled in.
More types of external BLAS are recognized by name in that
report.
* When building R as a shared library, the -L${R_HOME}/lib${R_ARCH}
flag is placed earlier in the link commands used during
installation and when packages are installed: this helps ensure
that the current build has priority if an R shared library has
already been installed by e.g. install-libR in a library
mentioned in LDFLAGS (and not in 'your system's library
directory' as documented). (Wish of PR#15790.)
* LaTeX package upquote is no longer required for R's use of
inconsolata.
* (Windows only) If both 32 and 64 bit versions of R are installed,
the bin/R.exe and bin/Rscript.exe executables now run 64 bit R.
(To run 32 bit R, overwrite these files with copies of
bin/i386/Rfe.exe.)
UTILITIES:
* Running R CMD check with _R_CHECK_DEPENDS_ONLY_ true now makes
the VignetteBuilder packages available even if they are listed in
Suggests, since they are needed to recognise and process
non-Sweave vignettes.
* R CMD check now reports empty importFrom declarations in a
NAMESPACE file, as these are common errors (writing
importFrom(Pkg) where import(Pkg) was intended).
* R CMD check now by default checks code usage directly on the
package namespace without loading and attaching the package and
its suggests and enhances. For good practice with packages in
the Suggests field, see SS1.1.3.1 of 'Writing R Extensions'. For
use of lazy-data objects in the package's own code, see ?data.
BUG FIXES:
* dmultinom() did not handle non-finite probabilities correctly.
* prettyNum(x, zero.print=*) now also works when x contains NAs.
* A longstanding bug exhibited by nlminb() on Windows was traced to
a compiler bug in gcc 4.6.3; a workaround has been put in place.
(PR#15244 and PR#15914).
* Rendering of \command in HTML versions of help pages has been
improved: this is particularly evident on the help page for
INSTALL.
* as.hexmode(x) and as.octmode(x) now behave correctly for some
numeric x, e.g., c(NA, 1) or c(1, pi).
* drop1() failed if the scope argument had no variables to drop.
(PR#15935)
* edit() (and hence fix()) failed if an object had a non-character
attribute named "source" (an attribute that had been used in R
prior to version 2.14.0).
* callGeneric() could fail if the generic had ... as a formal
argument. (PR#15937).
* Forking in package parallel called C entry point exit in the
child. This was unsafe (_exit should have been called), and
could flush stdin of the main R process (seen most often on
Solaris).
As good practice, stdout is now flushed before forking a child.
* R objects such as list(`a\b` = 1) now print correctly.
* getAnywhere("C_pbinom") now returns correctly a single object
(rather than unlisting it).
* The confint() method for nls() fits failed it these has specified
parameter limits despite using an algorithm other than "port".
(PR#15960)
* Subclassing an S4 class failed if the class required arguments to
the generator, through its initialize() method.
* removeSource() did not properly handle expressions containing
arguments that were supplied as missing, e.g. x[i,]. (PR#15957)
* as.environment(list()) now works, and as.list() of such an
environment is now the same as list().
* Several tcltk functions failed when run in unusual environments.
(PR#15970)
* options(list()) now works (trivially). (PR#15979)
* merge(<dendrogram>, ..) now works correctly for two `independent'
dendrograms (PR#15648), and still compatibly via adjust = "auto"
e.g. for two branches of an existing dendrogram.
* The plot method for "hclust" objects gets an optional argument
check; When that is true (the default) it checks more carefully
for valid input.
* (Windows only) If a user chose to install 64 bit R but not 32 bit
R, the bin/R and bin/Rscript executables failed to run.
(PR#15981)
* Various possible buffer overruns have been prevented, and missed
memory protection added. (PR#15990)
* Rscript no longer passes --args to R when there are no extra
("user") arguments.
* objects like getClass("refClass")@prototype now print() and str()
without error.
* identical() now also looks at the S4 bit.
* hist(x, breaks) is more robust in adding a small fuzz to few
breaks when some are very large. (PR#15988)
* sub() and gsub() did not handle regular expressions like "\s{2,}"
properly if the text contained NA or non-ascii elements in a
UTF-8 locale. Part of this was due to a bug in the TRE library.
(PR#16009)
* RShowDoc("NEWS") now displays the PDF version.
* Matrices and arrays with last dimension zero did not print at all
or incompletely. (PR#16012)
* plot.histogram() and hence hist() now respect the xaxs, yaxs and
lab graphics parameters. (PR#16021)
* bw.SJ(x) and other bw.*() no longer segfault when x contains
non-finite values. (PR#16024)
* R CMD Rd2pdf unintentionally ignored its --os option.
* The internal method of download.file() was not reporting file
sizes and progress correctly on files larger than 2GB (inherited
from libxml2). This is corrected for 64-bit builds (32-bit
platforms may not support such files, but where possible will be
supported in future versions of R).
* Work around a bug in OS X Yosemite where key environment
variables may be duplicated causing issues in subprocesses. The
duplicates are now removed on R startup (via Rprofile).
(PR#16042)
* Adjust X11 auto-launch detection in DISPLAY on OS X to recognize
latest XQuartz.

CHANGES IN R 3.1.1:
CHANGES IN R 3.1.1:
NEW FEATURES:
* When attach() reports conflicts, it does so compatibly with
library() by using message().
* R CMD Sweave no longer cleans any files by default, compatibly
with versions of R prior to 3.1.0. There are new options
--clean, --clean=default and --clean=keepOuts.
* tools::buildVignette() and tools::buildVignettes() with clean =
FALSE no longer remove any created files. buildvignette() gains
a keep argument for more cleaning customization.
* The Bioconductor 'version' used by setRepositories() can now be
set by environment variable R_BIOC_VERSION at runtime, not just
when R is installed. (It has been stated that Bioconductor will
switch from 'version' 2.14 to 'version' 3.0 during the lifetime
of the R 3.1 series.)
* Error messages from bugs in embedded Sexpr code in Sweave
documents now report the source location.
* type.convert(), read.table() and similar read.*() functions get a
new numerals argument, specifying how numeric input is converted
when its conversion to double precision loses accuracy. The
default value, "allow.loss" allows accuracy loss, as in R
versions before 3.1.0.
* For some compilers, integer addition could overflow without a
warning. R's internal code for both integer addition and
subtraction is more robust now. (PR#15774)
* The function determining the default number of knots for
smooth.spline() is now exported, as .nknots.smspl().
* dbeta(, a,b), pbeta(), qbeta() and rbeta() are now defined also
for a = 0, b = 0, or infinite a and b (where they typically
returned NaN before).
* Many package authors report that the RStudio graphics device does
not work correctly with their package's use of dev.new(). The
new option dev.new(noRStudioGD = TRUE) replaces the RStudio
override by the default device as selected by R itself, still
respecting environment variables R_INTERACTIVE_DEVICE and
R_DEFAULT_DEVICE.
* readRDS() now returns visibly.
* Modifying internal logical scalar constants now results in an
error instead of a warning.
* install.packages(repos = NULL) now accepts http:// or ftp:// URLs
of package archives as well as file paths, and will download as
required. In most cases repos = NULL can be deduced from the
extension of the URL.
* The warning when using partial matching with the $ operator on
data frames is now only given when
options("warnPartialMatchDollar") is TRUE.
* Package help requests like package?foo now try the package foo
whether loaded or not.
* General help requests now default to trying all loaded packages,
not just those on the search path.
* Added a new function promptImport(), to generate a help page for
a function that was imported from another package (and presumably
re-exported, or help would not be needed).
INSTALLATION and INCLUDED SOFTWARE:
* configure option --with-internal-tzcode can now be used with
variable rsharedir.
* The included version of PCRE has been updated to 8.35.
* There is a new target make uninstall-libR to remove an installed
shared/static libR.
make install-libR now works if a sub-architecture is used,
although the user will need to specify libdir differently for
different sub-architectures.
* There is more extensive advice on which LaTeX packages are
required to install R or to make package manuals (as done by R
CMD check) in the 'Writing R Extensions' manual.
* Compilers/linkers were handling the visibility controls in
src/extra/xz inconsistently (and apparently in some cases
incorrectly), so it has been simplified. (PR#15327)
* (Windows) There is updated support for the use of ICU for
collation: see the 'R Installation and Administration Manual'.
BUG FIXES:
* dbinom(x, n), pbinom(), dpois(), etc, are slightly less
restrictive in checking if n is integer-valued. (Wish of
PR#15734.)
* pchisq(x, df, ncp, log.p = TRUE) is more accurate and no longer
underflows for small x and ncp < 80, e.g, for pchisq(1e-5, df =
100, ncp = 1, log = TRUE). (Based on PR#15635 and a suggestion
by Roby Joehanes.)
* The s ("step into") command in the debugger would cause R to step
into expressions evaluated there, not just into functions being
debugged. (PR#15770)
* The C code used by strptime() rejected time-zone offsets of more
than +1200 (+1245, +1300 and +1400 can occur). (PR#15768)
* (Windows only.) png(type = "cairo", antialias = "gray") was not
accepted. (PR#15760)
* Use of save(..., envir=) with named objects could fail.
(PR#15758)
* Sweave() mis-parsed Sexpr expressions that contained backslashes.
(PR#15779)
* The return value from options(foo = NULL) was not the previous
value of the option. (PR#15781)
* enc2utf8() and enc2native() did not always mark the encoding of
the return values when it was known.
* dnbinom(x, size = <large>, mu, log = TRUE) no longer underflows
to -Inf for large mu, thanks to a suggestion from Alessandro
Mammana (MPI MolGen, Berlin).
* pbeta(x, a, b, log = TRUE) no longer behaves discontinuously (in
a small x-region) because of denormalized numbers. Also,
pbeta(1-1e-12, 1e30, 1.001, log=TRUE) now terminates "in real
time".
* The "CRAN" filter (see available.packages()) no longer removes
duplicates other than of packages on CRAN, and does not fail if
there is no CRAN repository in getOption("repos").
* The device listing from dev2bitmap() and bitmap() was truncated
to 1000 characters: modern versions of GhostScript on most
platforms have many more devices.
* (Windows.) Commands such as Sys.which() and pipe() which needed
to find the full path to a command could segfault if the 'long'
path name was much longer than the 'short' path name (which
Sys.which() returns), as the behaviour of the Windows API call
had changed.
* R CMD build will fail with an error if one of the packages
specified in the VignetteBuilder field is not installed.
(Without loading those packages it cannot be ascertained which
files are intended to be vignettes. This means that the
VignetteBuilder packages have to be installed for package
checking too.) (Wish of PR#15775.)
* Misguided attempts to use chull() with non-finite points now give
an error (related to PR#15777).
* For a formula with exactly 32 variables the 32nd variable was
aliased to the intercept in some C-level computations of terms,
so that for example attempting to remove it would remove the
intercept instead (and leave a corrupt internal structure).
(PR#15735)
* anyDuplicated() silently returned wrong values when the first
duplicate was at an index which was too large to be stored in an
integer vector (although a lot of RAM and patience would have
been needed to encounter this).
* tools::Rd2ex(commentDontrun = FALSE) failed if the block had only
one line.
* Hexadecimal constants such as 0x110p-5L which were incorrectly
qualified by L were parsed incorrectly since R 3.0.0, with a
slightly garbled warning. (PR#15753)
* system() returned success on some platforms even if the system
was unable to launch a process. (PR#15796)
* (Windows Rgui console.) Unbuffered output was sometimes not
output immediately if the prompt was not on the last line of the
console.
* The built-in help server did not declare the encoding for the
DESCRIPTION or other text files to be the package encoding, so
non-ASCII characters could be displayed incorrectly.
* R is now trying harder to not cleanup child processes that were
not spawned by mcparallel() on platforms that provide information
about the source process of the SIGCHLD signal. This allows 3rd
party libraries to manage the exit status of children that they
spawn without R interfering.
* mcmapply() was only parallelizing if the number of jobs was
bigger than the number of cores. It now parallelizes if the
number of jobs is more than one.
* Auto-printing would re-evaluate its argument when trying to
dispatch to a print method. This is now avoided when possible.
* Unserializing (including load() and readRDS()) could silently
return incorrect numeric values from ASCII saves if there was a
read error.
* getParseData() could return incorrect values for the parents of
some elements. (Reported by Andrew Redd.)
* Attempting to use data frames of 2^31 or more rows with merge()
or to create a merged data frame of that size now gives a clearer
error message.
* parse() did not check its file argument was a connection if it
was not a character string, so e.g. parse(FALSE) attempted to
read from stdin.
Nor did dump() and dput().
* The "help.try.all.packages" option was ignored when the shortcut
syntax for help was used, e.g. ?foo.
* A potential segfault in string allocation has been fixed. (Found
by Radford Neal.)
* Potential memory protection errors in sort() and D() have been
fixed. (Found by Radford Neal.)
* Fixed a lack of error checking in graphics event functions.
(Found by Radford Neal; a different patch used here than the one
in pqR.)
* numericDeriv() sometimes miscalculated the gradient. (PR#15849,
reported originally by Radford Neal)

CHANGES IN R 3.1.0:
NEW FEATURES:
* type.convert() (and hence by default read.table()) returns a
character vector or factor when representing a numeric input as a
double would lose accuracy. Similarly for complex inputs.
If a file contains numeric data with unrepresentable numbers of
decimal places that are intended to be read as numeric, specify
colClasses in read.table() to be "numeric".
* tools::Rdiff(useDiff = FALSE) is closer to the POSIX definition
of diff -b (as distinct from the description in the man pages of
most systems).
* New function anyNA(), a version of any(is.na(.)) which is fast
for atomic vectors, based on a proposal by Tim Hesterberg. (Wish
of PR#15239.)
* arrayInd(*, useNames = TRUE) and, analogously, which(*, arr.ind =
TRUE) now make use of names(.dimnames) when available.
* is.unsorted() now also works for raw vectors.
* The "table" method for as.data.frame() (also useful as
as.data.frame.table()) now passes sep and base arguments to
provideDimnames().
* uniroot() gets new optional arguments, notably extendInt,
allowing to auto-extend the search interval when needed. The
return value has an extra component, init.it.
* switch(f, ...) now warns when f is a factor, as this typically
happens accidentally where the useR meant to pass a character
string, but f is treated as integer (as always documented).
* The parser has been modified to use less memory.
* The way the unary operators (+ - !) handle attributes is now more
consistent. If there is no coercion, all attributes (including
class) are copied from the input to the result: otherwise only
names, dims and dimnames are.
* colorRamp() and colorRampPalette() now allow non-opaque colours
and a ramp in opacity via the new argument alpha = TRUE.
(Suggested by Alberto Krone-Martins, but optionally as there are
existing uses which expect only RGB values.)
* grid.show.layout() and grid.show.viewport() get an optional vp.ex
argument.
* There is a new function find_gs_cmd() in the tools package to
locate a GhostScript executable. (This is an enhanced version of
a previously internal function there.)
* object.size() gains a format() method.
* There is a new family, "ArialMT", for the pdf() and postscript()
devices. This will only be rendered correctly on viewers which
have access to Monotype TrueType fonts (which are sometimes
requested by journals).
* The text and PDF news files, including NEWS and NEWS.2, have been
moved to the doc directory.
* combn(x, simplify = TRUE) now gives a factor result for factor
input x (previously user error). (Related to PR#15442.)
* Added utils::fileSnapshot() and utils::changedFiles() functions
to allow snapshots and comparison of directories of files.
* make.names(names, unique=TRUE) now tries to preserve existing
names. (Suggestion of PR#15452.)
* New functions cospi(x), sinpi(x), and tanpi(x), for more accurate
computation of cos(pi*x), etc, both in R and the C API. Using
these gains accuracy in some cases, e.g., inside lgamma() or
besselI(). (Suggested by Morten Welinder in PR#15529.)
* print.table(x, zero.print = ".") now also has an effect when x is
not integer-valued.
* There is more support to explore the system's idea of time-zone
names. Sys.timezone() tries to give the current system setting
by name (and succeeds at least on Linux, OS X, Solaris and
Windows), and OlsonNames() lists the names in the system's Olson
database. Sys.timezone(location = FALSE) gives the previous
behaviour.
* Platforms with a 64-bit time_t type are allowed to handle
conversions between the "POSIXct" and "POSIXlt" classes for
date-times outside the 32-bit range (before 1902 or after 2037):
the existing workarounds are used on other platforms. (Note that
time-zone information for post-2037 is speculative at best, and
the OS services are tested for known errors and so not used on OS
X.)
Currently time_t is usually long and hence 64-bit on Unix-alike
64-bit platforms: however it several cases the time-zone database
is 32-bit. On R for Windows it is 64-bit (for both architectures
as from this version).
* The "save.defaults" option can include a value for
compression_level. (Wish of PR#15579.)
* colSums() and friends now have support for arrays and data-frame
columns with 2^31 or more elements.
* as.factor() is faster when f is an unclassed integer vector (for
example, when called from tapply()).
* fft() now works with longer inputs, from the 12 million
previously supported up to 2 billion. (PR#15593)
* Complex svd() now uses LAPACK subroutine ZGESDD, the complex
analogue of the routine used for the real case.
* Sweave now outputs .tex files in UTF-8 if the input encoding is
declared to be UTF-8, regardless of the local encoding. The
UTF-8 encoding may now be declared using a LaTeX comment
containing the string %\SweaveUTF8 on a line by itself.
* file.copy() gains a copy.date argument.
* Printing of date-times will make use of the time-zone
abbreviation in use at the time, if known. For example, for
Paris pre-1940 this could be LMT, PMT, WET or WEST. To enable
this, the "POSIXlt" class has an optional component "zone"
recording the abbreviation for each element.
For platforms which support it, there is also a component
"gmtoff" recording the offset from GMT where known.
* (On Windows, by default on OS X and optionally elsewhere.) The
system C function strftime has been replaced by a more
comprehensive version with closer conformance to the POSIX 2008
standard.
* dnorm(x, log = FALSE) is more accurate (but somewhat slower) for
|x| > 5; as suggested in PR#15620.
* Some versions of the tiff() device have further compression
options.
* read.table(), readLines() and scan() have a new argument to
influence the treatment of embedded nuls.
* Avoid duplicating the right hand side values in complex
assignments when possible. This reduces copying of replacement
values in expressions such as Z$a <- a0 and ans[[i]] <- tmp: some
package code has relied on there being copies.
Also, a number of other changes to reduce copying of objects; all
contributed by or based on suggestions by Michael Lawrence.
* The fast argument of KalmanLike(), KalmanRun() and
KalmanForecast() has been replaced by update, which instead of
updating mod in place, optionally returns the updated model in an
attribute "mod" of the return value.
* arima() and makeARIMA() get a new optional argument SSinit,
allowing the choice of a different *s*tate *s*pace initialization
which has been observed to be more reliable close to
non-stationarity: see PR#14682.
* warning() has a new argument noBreaks., to simplify
post-processing of output with options(warn = 1).
* pushBack() gains an argument encoding, to support reading of
UTF-8 characters using scan(), read.table() and related functions
in a non-UTF-8 locale.
* all.equal.list() gets a new argument use.names which by default
labels differing components by names (if they match) rather than
by integer index. Saved R output in packages may need to be
updated.
* The methods for all.equal() and attr.all.equal() now have
argument check.attributes after ... so it cannot be partially nor
positionally matched (as it has been, unintentionally).
A side effect is that some previously undetected errors of
passing empty arguments (no object between commas) to all.equal()
are detected and reported.
There are explicit checks that check.attributes is logical,
tolerance is numeric and scale is NULL or numeric. This catches
some unintended positional matching.
The message for all.equal.numeric() reports a "scaled difference"
only for scale != 1.
* all.equal() now has a "POSIXt" method replacing the "POSIXct"
method.
* The "Date" and "POSIXt" methods of seq() allows by = "quarter"
for completeness (by = "3 months" always worked).
* file.path() removes any trailing separator on Windows, where they
are invalid (although sometimes accepted). This is intended to
enhance the portability of code written by those using POSIX file
systems (where a trailing / can be used to confine path matching
to directories).
* New function agrepl() which like grepl() returns a logical
vector.
* fifo() is now supported on Windows. (PR#15600)
* sort.list(method = "radix") now allows negative integers (wish of
PR#15644).
* Some functionality of print.ts() is now available in
.preformat.ts() for more modularity.
* mcparallel() gains an option detach = TRUE which allows execution
of code independently of the current session. It is based on a
new estranged = TRUE argument to mcfork() which forks child
processes such that they become independent of the parent
process.
* The pdf() device omits circles and text at extremely small sizes,
since some viewers were failing on such files.
* The rightmost break for the "months", "quarters" and "years"
cases of hist.POSIXlt() has been increased by a day. (Inter
alia, fixes PR#15717.)
* The handling of DF[i,] <- a where i is of length 0 is improved.
(Inter alia, fixes PR#15718.)
* hclust() gains a new method "ward.D2" which implements Ward's
method correctly. The previous "ward" method is "ward.D" now,
with the old name still working. Thanks to research and
proposals by Pierre Legendre.
* The sunspot.month dataset has been amended and updated from the
official source, whereas the sunspots and sunspot.year datasets
will remain immutable. The documentation and source links have
been updated correspondingly.
* The summary() method for "lm" fits warns if the fit is
essentially perfect, as most of the summary may be computed
inaccurately (and with platform-dependent values).
Programmers who use summary() in order to extract just a
component which will be reliable (e.g. $cov.unscaled) should wrap
their calls in suppressWarnings().
INSTALLATION and INCLUDED SOFTWARE:
* The included version of LAPACK has been updated to 3.5.0.
* There is some support for parallel testing of an installation, by
setting TEST_MC_CORES to an integer greater than one to indicate
the maximum number of cores to be used in parallel. (It is worth
specifying at least 8 cores if available.) Most of these require
a make program (such as GNU make and dmake) which supports the
$MAKE -j nproc syntax.
Except on Windows: the tests of standard package examples in make
check are done in parallel. This also applies to running
tools::testInstalledPackages().
The more time-consuming regression tests are done in parallel.
The package checks in make check-devel and make check-recommended
are done in parallel.
* More of make check will work if recommended packages are not
installed: but recommended packages remain needed for thorough
checking of an R build.
* The version of tzcode included in src/extra/tzone has been
updated. (Formerly used only on Windows.)
* The included (64-bit) time-zone conversion code and Olson
time-zone database can be used instead of the system version: use
configure option --with-internal-tzcode. This is the default on
Windows and OS X. (Note that this does not currently work if a
non-default rsharedir configure variable is used.)
(It might be necessary to set environment variable TZ on OSes
where this is not already set, although the system timezone is
deduced correctly on at least Linux, OS X and Windows.)
This option also switches to the version of strftime included in
directory src/extra/tzone.
* configure now tests for a C++11-compliant compiler by testing
some basic features. This by default tries flags for the
compiler specified by CXX, but an alternative compiler, options
and standard can be specified by variables CXX1X, CXX1XFLAGS and
CXX1XSTD (e.g. -std=gnu++11).
* R can now optionally be compiled to use reference counting
instead of the NAMED mechanism by defining SWITCH_TO_REFCNT in
Rinternals.h. This may become the default in the future.
* There is a new option --use-system-tre to use a suitable system
tre library: at present this means a version from their git
repository, after corrections. (Wish of PR#15660.)

- Most important
CHANGES IN R 3.0.3:
NEW FEATURES:
* On Windows there is support for making .texi manuals using
texinfo 5.0 or later: the setting is in file
src/gnuwin32/MkRules.dist.
A packaging of the Perl script and modules for texinfo 5.2 has
been made available at <URL:
http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/Rtools/>.
* write.table() now handles matrices of 2^31 or more elements, for
those with large amounts of patience and disc space.
* There is a new function, La_version(), to report the version of
LAPACK in use.
* The HTML version of 'An Introduction to R' now has links to PNG
versions of the figures.
* There is some support to produce manuals in ebook formats. (See
doc/manual/Makefile. Suggested by Mauro Cavalcanti.)
* On a Unix-alike Sys.timezone() returns NA if the environment
variable TZ is unset, to distinguish it from an empty string
which on some OSes means the UTC time zone.
* The backtick may now be escaped in strings, to allow names
containing them to be constructed, e.g. `\``. (PR#15621)
* read.table(), readLines() and scan() now warn when an embedded
nul is found in the input. (Related to PR#15625 which was
puzzled by the behaviour in this unsupported case.)
* (Windows only.) file.symlink() works around the undocumented
restriction of the Windows system call to backslashes. (Wish of
PR#15631.)
* KalmanForecast(fast = FALSE) is now the default, and the help
contains an example of how fast = TRUE can be used in this
version. (The usage will change in 3.1.0.)
* strptime() now checks the locale only when locale-specific
formats are used and caches the locale in use: this can halve the
time taken on OSes with slow system functions (e.g. OS X).
* strptime() and the format() methods for classes "POSIXct",
"POSIXlt" and "Date" recognize strings with marked encodings:
this allows, for example, UTF-8 French month names to be read on
(French) Windows.
* iconv(to = "utf8") is now accepted on all platforms (some
implementations did already, but GNU libiconv did not: however
converted strings were not marked as being in UTF-8). The
official name, "UTF-8" is still preferred.
* available.packages() is better protected against corrupt metadata
files. (A recurring problem with Debian package shogun-r:
PR#14713.)
* Finalizers are marked to be run at garbage collection, but run
only at a somewhat safer later time (when interrupts are
checked). This circumvents some problems with finalizers running
arbitrary code during garbage collection (the known instances
being running options() and (C-level) path.expand()
re-entrantly).

CHANGES IN R 3.0.2:
NEW FEATURES:
* The NEWS files have been re-organized.
This file contains news for R >= 3.0.0: news for the 0.x.y, 1.x.y
and 2.x.y releases is in files NEWS.0, NEWS.1 and NEWS.2. The
latter files are now installed when R is installed. An HTML
version of news from 2.10.0 to 2.15.3 is available as
doc/html/NEWS.2.html.
* sum() for integer arguments now uses an integer accumulator of at
least 64 bits and so will be more accurate in the very rare case
that a cumulative sum exceeds 2^53 (necessarily summing more than
4 million elements).
* The example() and tools::Rd2ex() functions now have parameters to
allow them to ignore \dontrun markup in examples. (Suggested by
Peter Solymos.)
* str(x) is considerably faster for very large lists, or factors
with 100,000 levels, the latter as in PR#15337.
* col2rgb() now converts factors to character strings not integer
codes (suggested by Bryan Hanson).
* tail(warnings()) now works, via the new `[` method.
* There is now support for the LaTeX style file zi4.sty which has
in some distributions replaced inconsolata.sty.
* unlist(x) now typically returns all non-list xs unchanged, not
just the "vector" ones. Consequently, format(lst) now also works
when the list lst has non-vector elements.
* The tools::getVignetteInfo() function has been added to give
information about installed vignettes.
* New assertCondition(), etc. utilities in tools, useful for
testing.
* Profiling now records non-inlined calls from byte-compiled code
to BUILTIN functions.
* Various functions in stats and elsewhere that use non-standard
evaluation are now more careful to follow the namespace scoping
rules. E.g. stats::lm() can now find stats::model.frame() even
if stats is not on the search path or if some package defines a
function of that name.
* If an invalid/corrupt .Random.seed object is encountered in the
workspace it is ignored with a warning rather than giving an
error. (This allows R itself to rely on a working RNG, e.g. to
choose a random port.)
* seq() and seq.int() give more explicit error messages if called
with invalid (e.g. NaN) inputs.
* When parse() finds a syntax error, it now makes partial parse
information available up to the location of the error. (Request
of Reijo Sund.)
* Methods invoked by NextMethod() had a different dynamic parent to
the generic. This was causing trouble where S3 methods invoked
via lazy evaluation could lose track of their generic.
(PR#15267)
* Code for the negative binomial distribution now treats the case
size == 0 as a one-point distribution at zero.
* abbreviate() handles without warning non-ASCII input strings
which require no abbreviation.
* read.dcf() no longer has a limit of 8191 bytes per line. (Wish of
PR#15250.)
* formatC(x) no longer copies the class of x to the result, to
avoid misuse creating invalid objects as in PR#15303. A warning
is given if a class is discarded.
* Dataset npk has been copied from MASS to allow more tests to be
run without recommended packages being installed.
* The initialization of the regression coefficients for
non-degenerate differenced models in arima() has been changed and
in some examples avoids a local maximum. (PR#15396)
* termplot() now has an argument transform.x to control the display
of individual terms in the plot. (PR#15329)
* format() now supports digits = 0, to display nsmall decimal
places.
* There is a new read-only par() parameter called "page", which
returns a logical value indicating whether the next plot.new()
call will start a new page.
* Processing Sweave and Rd documents to PDF now renders backticks
and single quotes better in several instances, including in \code
and \samp expressions.
* utils::modifyList() gets a new argument keep.null allowing NULL
components in the replacement to be retained, instead of causing
corresponding components to be deleted.
* tools::pkgVignettes() gains argument check; if set to TRUE, it
will warn when it appears a vignette requests a non-existent
vignette engine.

CHANGES IN R 3.0.1:
NEW FEATURES:
o chooseCRANmirror() and chooseBioCmirror() gain an ind argument
(like setRepositories()).
o mcparallel has a new argument mc.interactive which can modify the
interactive flag in the child process. The new default is FALSE
which makes child processes non-interactive by default (this
prevents lock-ups due to children waiting for interactive input).
o scan() now warns when end-of-file occurs within a quoted string.
o count.fields() is now consistent with scan() in its handling of
newlines in quoted strings. Instead of triggering an error, this
results in the current line receiving NA as the field count, with
the next line getting the total count of the two lines.
o The default method of image() will plot axes of the class of xlim
and ylim (and hence of x and y if there is a suitable range()
method). Based on a suggestion of Michael Sumner.
o load() now has a verbose argument for debugging support, to print
the names of objects just before loading them.
o When loading a serialized object encounters a reference to a
namespace which cannot be loaded, this is replaced by a reference
to the global environment, with a warning.
o pairs() gains a line.main option for title placement.
o The remaining instances in which serialization to a raw vector
was limited to 2GB have been unlimited on a 64-bit platform, and
in most cases serialization to a vector of more than 1GB will be
substantially faster.

CHANGES IN R 3.0.0:
SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES:
o Packages need to be (re-)installed under this version (3.0.0) of
R.
o There is a subtle change in behaviour for numeric index values
2^31 and larger. These never used to be legitimate and so were
treated as NA, sometimes with a warning. They are now legal for
long vectors so there is no longer a warning, and x[2^31] <- y
will now extend the vector on a 64-bit platform and give an error
on a 32-bit one.
o It is now possible for 64-bit builds to allocate amounts of
memory limited only by the OS. It may be wise to use OS
facilities (e.g. ulimit in a bash shell, limit in csh), to set
limits on overall memory consumption of an R process,
particularly in a multi-user environment. A number of packages
need a limit of at least 4GB of virtual memory to load.
64-bit Windows builds of R are by default limited in memory usage
to the amount of RAM installed: this limit can be changed by
command-line option --max-mem-size or setting environment
variable R_MAX_MEM_SIZE.
o Negative numbers for colours are consistently an error:
previously they were sometimes taken as transparent, sometimes
mapped into the current palette and sometimes an error.

R-2.x.y series.
- Most important additions:
NEW FEATURES:
o lgamma(x) for very small x (in the denormalized range) is no
longer Inf with a warning.
o image() now sorts an unsorted breaks vector, with a warning.
o The internal methods for tar() and untar() do a slightly more
general job for 'ustar'-style handling of paths of more than 100
bytes.
o Packages compiler and parallel have been added to the reference
index (refman.pdf).
o untar(tar = "internal") has some support for pax headers as
produced by e.g. gnutar --posix (which seems prevalent on
OpenSUSE 12.2) or bsdtar --format pax, including long path and
link names.
o sQuote() and dQuote() now handle 0-length inputs. (Suggestion of
Ben Bolker.)
o summaryRprof() returns zero-row data frames rather than throw an
error if no events are recorded, for consistency.
o The included version of PCRE has been updated to 8.32.
o The tcltk namespace can now be re-loaded after unloading.
The Tcl/Tk event loop is inhibited in a forked child from package
parallel (as in e.g. mclapply()).
o parallel::makeCluster() recognizes the value random for the
environment variable R_PARALLEL_PORT: this chooses a random value
for the port and reduces the chance of conflicts when multiple
users start a cluster at the same time.

- This revision adds a R.conf file to ld.so.conf.d to enable
- searching for libraries where R is installed. Once this change
