Minor other fixes include: - Fixed the logic regarding a warning
about infusion lengths - Added several example model metadata files, and
improve functionality for installing example models - Ensure that paths
with spaces are properly parsed - Update debugging informational
messages - Make it easier to work with model characteristics - Make sure
infusion length can be used with ‘sc’ or other non-iv administration
types - Added feature to allow scaling of the infusion duration - Added
feature to calculate AUC pre-ss - Fix interpolation of time-varying
covariates in pk blocks. - Fix regimen_to_nm() conversion
function - Added requirement that metadata has fixed

This release addresses the Feb. 16 email from Professor Ripley regarding the use of Boost headers that are not compliant with recent C++ versions.
The BH package provides Boost C++ library headers. The BH library is not used in any of the code in /R or /src, but only in the C++ templates that comes with the package (in /inst/cpp). The C++ templates are used when creating a model using the new_ode_model() function, which is then compiled on-the-fly. If the BH package is removed from the Depends field, it won’t be installed and hence models cannot be compiled and run. BH cannot be moved to the LinkingTo field.
This is the first version of PKPDsim that is released to CRAN. PKPDsim has been in development since 2014, but previous versions were only made available at Github (InsightRX/PKPDsim).
