1.5.2 (2021-01-10)

• Maintainer change (Folashade Daniel; fdaniel@microsoft.com)

1.5.1 (2020-10-12)

• Maintainer change (Michelle Wallig; Michelle.Wallig@microsoft.com)

1.5.0 (2020-03-29)

• Changed the default value for the foreachDoparLocal system option to TRUE.

1.4.8 (2020-02-04)

• Added preliminary support for evaluating %dopar% expressions in a local environment, when a sequential backend is used. This addresses a long-standing inconsistency in the behaviour of %dopar% with parallel and sequential backends, where the latter would evaluate the loop body in the global environment by default. The behaviour of %dopar% can be controlled by setting
  

  options(foreachDoparLocal=TRUE|FALSE)
  

  or equivalently via the system environment variable
  

  R_FOREACH_DOPAR_LOCAL=TRUE|FALSE
  

  with the R option taking its value from the environment variable. If both are set, the former overrides the latter. The current default value is FALSE, which retains the pre-existing behaviour. It is intended that over time this will be changed to TRUE.
  

  A side-effect of this change is that the behaviour of %do% and %dopar% will (eventually) be different for a sequential backend. See https://github.com/RevolutionAnalytics/foreach/issues/3 for more discussion on this issue.

• Updated tooling used for development. None of these changes should have any effect on package behaviour.
