- major revision of the template function body for the bitfield operators
- more options for bitfield operators, such as the possibility to specify an NA-value and the position in the bitfield, and a custom description
- more stringent provenance handling, now provenance is reported as a combination of the
Actionname and the parameters that are used (following PROV terminology and logic) - revision of the
bf_decode()output reporting, now with a more user-friendly return value - full documentation and functionality of all functions (except auto determination of floating-point encoding for numeric values)
- document also MD5 checksum for registries
- revise various functions
- improve text (readme/vignette)
- change naming of the functions
- correct terminology, the class is not the bitfield but instead an array or registry that contains information about the bitfield. Hence, I renamed it to
registry - use attributes to capture a bitflag description and name
- Initial CRAN submission
