2015/12/23 | Rserve 1.8-4 bugfix release (affects proxy and compute-separation mode only). |
2015/07/20 | Rserve 1.8-3 release. Added support for Rserve I/O context and new WebSocket/QAP tunnel proxy with extended static content support (supportes conditional GETs and serving compressed content). |
2015/05/20 | Rserve 1.8-2 bugfix release (only affects WebSocket implementation) |
2015/04/08 | Rserve 1.8-1 released on RForge.net. Added ulog support in R, "fork here" for spawning multiple servers and console input OOB support. |
2014/09/03 | Rserve 1.8-0 released on RForge.net. We are currently restricting the 1.8 series to RForge releases (i.e., CRAN still has 1.7) because some applications may rely on control commands which are currently unsupported in the 1.8 series due to a large overhaul of the communication between the master server and the sessions. All other features are considered stable in the 1.8 series. If you don't require control commands (or don't know what it is) then we strongly recommend installing the latest 1.8 version. |
2013/08/21 | Rserve 1.7-3 released. This relase now restores Windows support (thanks to David Champagne from Revolution Analytics!), it allows HTTPS to WebSockets/TLS upgrade (on unix) and cleans up configuration of the various new possible server configurations. |
2013/08/12 | Rserve 1.7-2 released. New keep.alive option and bugfixes |
2013/07/02 | Rserve 1.7-1 is now officially on CRAN. Please see the NEWS for the long list of new features in the new 1.x series. Note that the old Java client has been removed entirely and the REngine-based client now ships in the src/clients/java directory of the source package and the JAR files are even installed in the java directory of the resulting package installation. Also note that the source repository is now hosted on GitHub - builds and everything else is still performed by RForge.net. |
2012/12/10 | Rserve 1.7-0 is the latest version of Rserve with many new features. Please give it a go - we think it's stable enough. The only reason why it has not been officially released yet is that it currently doesn't support Windows (because many of the new features rely on things lacking in Windows). However, given that it is much more sensible to use unix servers for Rserve deployment (Windows' performance is simply too poor for any server deployment) the majority of users should be able to test the new version and give us feedback. |

2012/02/20 | Rserve 0.6-8 released. Added support for self-control commands as well as RSserverEval(), RSserverSource and control version of RSshutdown. |
2012/01/22 | Rserve 0.6-7 released. This is a security update, if you rely on the built-in authentication, make sure you update at least to this version! |

2011/06/21 | Rserve 0.6-5 released (Windows-specific updates, use install.libs.R from R 2.13.1 on) |

|
2009/01/25 | Rserve 0.5-3 released (added string encoding support, allow S3 objects to be synthesized on the client side, added tests, minor fixes) |
2008/10/17 | Rserve 0.5-2 released (fixed bug in readFile and setBufferSize; updated Java client) |
2008/07/22 | Rserve 0.5-1 released (fixes build issues with R 2.7 on Windows and multi-arch install) |
2008/07/21 | Rserve 0.5-0 was released on CRAN. This is a new, major release of Rserve which requires updated client support, because the protocol was substantially changed. It also features a new, efficient R client. Note that the old Java API (JRclient) will no longer be activaley maintained and projects are encouraged to use the new Java API (REngine). This version was in RC stage for quite a long while so hopefully most project switched already. (0.4 versions are still available from RForge for legacy projects, but not from CRAN) |
2007/03/15 | Rserve and its documentation have now officially moved to RForge. |
2006/11/15 | Rserve is now available as a package from CRAN. This also implies that the latest binary versions (both for Windows and Mac OS X) are now available from CRAN. Simply use install.packages("Rserve"). |
2006/05/03 | Rserve_0.4-3 released including Windows binary for R 2.3.0. The new 0.4 series supports sessions, i.e. the client can detach from the server and attach to the same session later on (e.g. when the computation has finished). The corresponding new client is now available for download. Also the C++ client has been extended to support authentication and file transfer. |
2005/01/12 | Rserve_0.3-16 released. It allows custom initialization such that you can pre-load data and libraries, allowing even faster responses for specific tasks. |
2003/10/08 | Rserve_0.3-0 and updated Java client released (clients update necessary). Updated FAQ. Updated Windows binary. This version adds support for large data - if you experienced crashes while fetching large data in 0.2 and earlier, use this version instead. |
