- 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

This release addresses the Feb. 16 email from Professor Ripley regarding the use of Boost headers that are not compliant with recent C++ versions.
- Regarding note "Package in Depends/Imports which should probably only be in LinkingTo: ‘BH’":
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.
