Changes in version 0.3.2 (2022-11-07)                  

Bug Fixes

  - Native code would try to read from file even where there was nothing
    to read. This was caught by the -Wunused-result compiler option.

  - Native code had a non-guarded else clause, i.e. it was not
    surrounded by { ... }.

                 Changes in version 0.3.1 (2017-03-22)                  

Software Quality

  - Now explicitly importing graphics, grDevices, and utils functions.

  - Removed some clang compiler warnings and a harmless bug in a part of
    the C code that was never used by this package.

                 Changes in version 0.3.0 (2012-10-07)                  

New Features

  - Now sfit::cfit() works (without having to attach the package).

  - Now library("sfit", quietly = TRUE) attaches the package completely
    silently without any output message.

Refactoring

  - Now only importing R.methodsS3 (no longer attaching it).

  - Updated details on authors.

Software Quality

  - Added cfitTests() to test the installation.

  - Added several system tests.

Bug Fixes

  - Now declaring all S3 methods in NAMESPACE.

                 Changes in version 0.2.2 (2012-07-16)                  

Software Quality

  - Now declaring S3 methods in NAMESPACE.

  - Added an Authors@R field to DESCRIPTION.

  - CRAN POLICY: Now all Rd example lines are at most 100 characters
    long.

                 Changes in version 0.2.1 (2012-03-23)                  

New Features

  - Now package uses packageStartupMessage() instead of cat() when
    loaded.

                 Changes in version 0.2.0 (2011-05-15)                  

New Features

  - If argument cfit of cfit() is NULL, which happens if the cfit option
    is not set, then cfit() will generate a warning explaining that it
    will rely on the operating system to find the cfit binary, which may
    not work.

Software Quality

  - Removed warning reporting on an uninitialized f when building
    executable cli. This warning was unharmful and the "fix" makes no
    difference.

Bug Fixes

  - BUILD BUG FIX: The makefiles for building package binaries assumed
    that a directory ../incl/bin/ existed. Starting with R v2.13.0,
    empty ("skeleton") directories are automatically dropped (already
    when building the *.tar.gz), which caused error ../inst/bin/: No
    such file or directory during the binary builds.

  - If the cfit binary had a comma in its path, cfit() would, if on
    Windows, throw an error reporting that the command "is not
    recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or
    batch file". Now such commas are escaped if on Windows. See source
    code of findCfitBinary() for all details.

                 Changes in version 0.1.9 (2010-04-23)                  

Documentation

  - Added Rd help to argument verbose of cfit() for the matrix class.

                 Changes in version 0.1.8 (2008-05-09)                  

Deprecated and Defunct

  - Removed obsolete SaveImage from DESCRIPTION.

                 Changes in version 0.1.7 (2008-08-31)                  

New Features

  - Added drawApex() and radials() for class cfit.

Refactoring

  - Renames old HISTORY file to NEWS.

                 Changes in version 0.1.6 (2008-02-14)                  

Software Quality

  - cfit.matrix() now tests if the temporary data file was
    written/exists.

Refactoring

  - Replaced dependency on R.oo with dependency on R.methodsS3.

                 Changes in version 0.1.5 (2007-06-12)                  

Software Quality

  - Added a NAMESPACE to the package.

                 Changes in version 0.1.4 (2007-06-10)                  

Software Quality

  - Package pass R CMD check R v2.6.0.

Bug Fixes

  - Internal lines3d() for cfit queried non-existing objects.

                 Changes in version 0.1.3 (2007-05-20)                  

Software Quality

  - WORKAROUND: On some Unix systems, cfit() would give output sh: cfit:
    command not found. This is because the sh shell has not be setup to
    identify executable in the current directory, i.e. they have to be
    called with ./cfit, but that does not work on Windows. Instead, the
    cfit() is now calling pipe() with the absolute pathname to the cfit
    executable within quotation marks (to avoid problems with spaces) in
    the command string.

                 Changes in version 0.1.2 (2006-07-21)                  

Documentation

  - Updated the help pages.

                 Changes in version 0.1.1 (2006-05-20)                  

Software Quality

  - First version of the package where the cfit binary is automatically
    build upon R CMD INSTALL. It is still no shared library that is
    build, i.e. the approach to dump data to file, call cfit, and then
    let R parse the cfit result is still used. But at least it should
    not (in theory) install and run on all platforms.

                 Changes in version 0.1.0 (2006-05-07)                  

New release

  - Created. Had a similar version in 2003.
