Changes in version 0.2.0.9000                      

                 Changes in version 0.2.0 (2025-05-27)                  

Breaking changes

  - The collector syntax has changed. The previous syntax ... was
    incompatible with R CMD check and would raise the error "... may be
    used in an incorrect context". The new syntax .. (double dots
    instead of triple) avoids this error. (#62)
    
    # new
    c(x, ..) %<-% list(1, 2, 3)
    
    # old
    c(x, ...) %<-% list(1, 2, 3)

  - The destructure methods for the Date, character, and complex classes
    have been removed.

New features

  - Values may now be assigned by name. The new syntax allows assigning
    a value to a variable by name instead of position. (#47)
    
    c(disp=, gear=) %<-% mtcars

  - For package developers, the new function zeallous() will prevent R
    CMD check from raising visible binding errors for variables assigned
    using %<-%. Call the function from a package's .onLoad function.
    (#57)
    
    .onLoad <- function(libname, pkgname) {
      zeallous()
    }

Major improvements

  - Collector variables now default to an empty list instead of raising
    an error when there are no values to collect. (#56)
    
    c(x, ..y) %<-% list(1)

  - Trailing anonymous collectors and value skips no longer raise
    errors.
    
    c(x, ..) %<-% list(1)
    
    c(y, .) %<-% list(1)

Minor improvements

  - Error messages have been simplified.

  - R versions >= 3.2 are formally supported.

                 Changes in version 0.1.0 (2018-01-28)                  

Major Improvements

  - Bumped to stable version.

Minor Improvements

  - Removed outdate language in the unpacking assignment vignette. (#36)

Bug Fixes

  - Destructuring objects with multiple classes will no longer raise a
    warning. (#35)

                       Changes in version 0.0.6.1                       

Bug Fixes

  - Resolved problem where collector variables would not be assigned the
    correct default value. (#34)

                 Changes in version 0.0.6 (2017-09-28)                  

Major Improvements

  - The left-hand side may now contain calls to [[, [, and $ allowing
    assignment of parts of objects. The parent object must already
    exist, otherwise an error is raised. (@rafaqz, #32)

                 Changes in version 0.0.5 (2017-08-25)                  

Major Changes

  - The bracket and colon syntax has been completely removed, users will
    now see an "unexpected call {" error message when attempting to use
    the old syntax. Please use the c() syntax for the name structure.

Major Improvements

  - A %->% operator has been added. The right operator performs the same
    operation as %<-% with the name structure on the right-hand side and
    the values to assign on the left-hand side.
  - = may be used to specify the default value of a variable. A default
    value is used when there are an insufficient number of values.

                 Changes in version 0.0.4 (2017-07-28)                  

Major Changes

  - The bracket and colon syntax has been deprecated in favor of a
    lighter syntax which uses calls to c(). Documentation and vignettes
    has been updated accordingly. Using the old syntax now raises a
    warning and will be removed in future versions of zeallot. (@hadley,
    #21)

Minor Improvements

  - %<-% can now be used for regular assignment. (@hadley, #17)
  - ... can now be used to skip multiple values without assigning those
    values and is recommended over the previously suggested .....
    (@hadley, #18)

Miscellaneous Changes

  - massign() is no longer exported.

Bug Fixes

  - Numerics on left-hand side are no longer unintentionally quoted,
    thus no longer treated as valid variable names, and will now raise
    an error. (@hadley, #20)
  - Language objects on left-hand side are no longer treated as symbols
    and will now raise an error. (@hadley, #20)

                 Changes in version 0.0.3 (2017-02-27)                  

  - see 0.0.2.1 notes for additional updates

Minor Improvements

  - Examples now consistently put spaces around colons separating
    left-hand side variables, e.g. a : b instead of a: b.

Bug Fixes

  - When unpacking an atomic vector, a collector variable will now
    collect values as a vector. Previously, values were collected as a
    list (#14).
