A new minor release of RcppRedis arrived on CRAN last week, following the release 0.2.0 of RcppMsgPack which brought the MsgPack headers forward to release 2.1.5. This required a minor and rather trivial change in the code. When the optional RcppMsgPack package is used, we now require this version 0.2.0 or later.

We made a few internal updates to the package as well.

Changes in version 0.1.8 (2017-09-08)

• A new file init.c was added with calls to R_registerRoutines() and R_useDynamicSymbols()

• Symbol registration is enabled in useDynLib

• Travis CI was updated to using run.sh

• The (optional MessagePack) code was updated for MsgPack 2.*

Courtesy of CRANberries, there is also a diffstat report for this release. More information is on the RcppRedis page.
