• RccpProgress now can use custom Progress Bars (draft by Clemens Schmid @nevrome) The include example package RcppProgressETA, included in RcppProgress is an example of using such a custom progress bar, and also contains an implementation (by Clemens Schmid @nevrome) of a vertical progress bar that displays the ETA (Estimated Time of completion).

  • reorganized the example tests functions: they are no longer implemented inside RcppProgress code, but called from the embedded RcppProgressExample example package. As a result RcppProgress no longer provides a dynamic library, nor does need to link against Rcpp. The example tests are also now available as testthat tests, thus used during the package check.

  • cleaned the Dockerfile and improved the docker-related Makefile targets

  • refactored the Makefile

  • fixed issue #3: The Rcpp namespace is no longer open

  • fixed issue #2 about extra progress bar symbols being printed

  • refactored code by putting display code in class ProgressBar

  • fixed armadillo example warning.

  • improvement by Jacques-Henri Jourdan to make it possible to use the progress monitor in multiple cpp files.

  • fixed compatibility problems with RcppArmadillo header.

  • provided a new example of using RcppArmadillo

  • used Rf_error instead of error in the implementation

  • add a note in the doc about RcppArmadillo

  • added this file
