In jefferis/IgorR: Read Binary Files Saved by 'Igor Pro' (Including 'Neuromatic' Data)

Changes since last CRAN release

• overhauls datetime handling to fix a test failure on macosx arm:

https://cran-archive.r-project.org/web/checks/2021/2021-10-05_check_results_IgorR.html

that I was unable to address back in 2021 resulting in archival. I have carried out cross-platform testing as below, so I am hopeful that there will be no build issues on CRAN platforms.

• fixes some URLs in README

Test environments

• winbuilder (devel)
• macbuilder (release)
• local macosx install, R 4.4.1
• github actions:
• macosx-latest
• ubuntu-latest (devel, release, oldrel-1)
• windows-latest

R CMD check results

There were no ERRORs or WARNINGs on any platform.

There were 2 NOTEs on win-builder devel

https://win-builder.r-project.org/4y3OYF9MRDBd/00check.log

relating to 2 issues:

1. X-CRAN-Comment: Archived on 2021-10-05 as check problems were not corrected in time.

2. • checking R code for possible problems ... NOTE Found the following assignments to the global environment: File 'IgorR/R/ReadIgorBinary.R': assign(WaveName, rval, envir = .GlobalEnv)

This has been discussed in previous submissions and is not a default behaviour but must be explicitly requested by the user by setting a documented argument (?read.ibw). The rationale is that some users like to be able to replicate the behaviour of Igor Pro in which individual records (aka waves) within a single file are available as individual objects in the user environment. Once again this must be explicitly requested.

Downstream dependencies

There are presently no downstream dependencies on CRAN.
