self.mevent() and self.mtime() to not send event objects back to mrgsolve when the requested object time is in the past; this preserves previous functionality while respecting change in 1.6.0 that generates an error for events (or event sequences) that happen or begin in the past (#1297).evt::tgrid() was added to the evtools plugin, allowing users to insert internal-only (non-output) records into the simulation for monitoring the system at a regular grid of times (#1291).
evt::evid() was added to the evtools plugin allowing users to reset the event ID attribute of event objects created inside a model (#1291).
EVID behavior was changed so that event IDs greater than or equal to 100 do not trigger a reset of the ODE solver, functioning like observation records with EVID=0; for EVID < 100, a discontinuity will continue to happen through ODE solver reset (#1291).
Event objects created in the model (typically through the evtools plugin) will now trigger an error when the event or event sequence starts before the current simulation time; these events were previously ignored silently (#1291).
Absolute (atol) and relative (rtol) tolerances can now be customized for each compartment in an ODE-based model (#1264)
custom_rtol(), custom_atol(), and custom_tol() to set tolerances on a compartment-by-compartment basis.reset_rtol(), reset_atol(), or reset_tol() to reset custom tolerances.use_custom_tol() and use_scalar_tol() to toggle the model to use either the customized (vector) values or the scalar values.get_tol() or get_tol_list() to extract both custom and scalar tolerance values.D_CMT, ALAG_CMT, and simeta() are now available to use in $TABLE ($ERROR), $EVENT, and $PRED code blocks (#1290).
Added END_OF_INFUSION syntax, which is true on the internal record that stops an infusion (#1288).
mwrite_yaml() and mwrite_cpp() now render block names in upper case, even for blocks coded with lower case in the original model file (#1282).
When creating an evt::regimen object (via evtools plugin), the default start time is now the time when the object was created; before this change, the default time was always 0 (#1266).
Added methods for evt::regimen objects (via evtools plugin) under the name time_next(); this either gets or sets the time of the next dose in the regimen (#1266).
Fixed an issue where time values in the simulated output data frame were off by a very small amount, due to issues with floating point mathematical operations (#1287).
Fixed a problem writing a model to file with mwrite_yaml() and mwrite_cpp() when lower case block naming was used (#1282).
Fixed a bug where invalid item passed through the $SET block caused an error when reading / building a model (#1271).
Fixed a bug where mrgsolve was not matching NONMEM behavior when an EVID=4 record was included in the data set with SS=1; mrgsolve will now match NONMEM behavior in this case, with the output being identical to EVID=1 with SS=1 (#1262).
Add $EVENT block for writing code related to dosing or other events that are implemented through model code rather than the data set (#1230).
Add evt::reset() and evt::reset(self) functions under the evtools plugin; these reset the compartments in a model; overloaded functions are also provided to reset and dose with bolus or infusion (#1222).
Completed dosing functionality in evtools plugin; use evt::addl() to schedule additional doses through an evt::ev object; use evt::ii() to set the dosing interval; use evt::ss() to advance the pharmacokinetic system to steady state just prior to dosing; evt::cmt() sets the compartment number; evt::amt() sets the dose amount; evt::rate() sets the infusion rate; see the user guide for the specific signatures that are available (#1227).
Add evtools model to modlib(), illustrating how to implement dosing regimens from inside the model a few different ways (#1230).
Added more comprehensive checking for duplicate blocks in a model file; duplicate blocks are always handled when allowed; an error message is always issued when duplicates are not allowed (#1238).
Code to audit $ODE (or $DES) code, looking for an equation for every model compartment was refactored to use a common approach for both traditional models and models written with the nm-vars plugin; regardless of approach, the user will be warned if mrgsolve does not detect code relevant to every model compartment; the audit system can be bypassed by including the @!audit block option to $ODE (#1235).
The autodec plugin was lightly refactored to avoid false positive detection of variables declared as double; plans are in place to narrow the scope of what is detected for declaration in future releases (#1234).
R help files (.Rd) reviewed and revised for consistency and formatting (#1246).
yaml_to_cpp() example code to prevent saving the file to the working directory (#1220).New functions mwrite_yaml() and mwrite_cpp() can write a model object back to a file, accounting for all updates since the model was read from native mrgsolve format using mread() (#1190, #1213).
New function mread_yaml() for reading back models written out with mwrite_yaml() (#1190, #1213).
New functions in evtools plugin: evt::replace() works like evt::bolus(), but will replace the amount in a given compartment rather than add to it (#1203).
The nm-vars plugin now exposes DEXP(), LOG10(), COS() and SIN() for use in the mrgsolve C++ code blocks (#1199).
An error is now generated when KA is equal to CL/VC while simulating from the one-compartment model with analytical solution invoked through $PKMODEL (#1179, #1197).
as_data_set() (#1115, #1196).An error will now be issued at simulation time when simulation data sets (data and idata) contain non-numeric data in columns sharing names with parameters; non-numeric data in columns with certain reserved names (like AMT, RATE, II, ADDL, etc.) will also result in an error (#1193).
Internal refactoring to improve performance when simulating infusions or doses with lag times when those doses are coded explicitly in the data set (#1186, #1187).
evt::regimen.ii(double) where timing of next dose was not as expected (#1170).evtools is a new plugin providing API for dynamic dosing from within the model; functions and classes are in the evt namespace (#1149).
regimen is a new class located in the evt namespace via the evtools plugin; regimen objects can execute doses in a regular regimen (#1156).
mread() and mcode() no longer print a message before the required waiting period on model recompile (#1145).
ev_rep() output rownames are cleaned up before returning (#1158).
C++ model code blocks (GLOBAL, PREAMBLE, MAIN/PK, ODE/DES, TABLE/ERROR) are now checked for <object>.<attribute> syntax; if found, symbols on both sides of the dot become reserved words when loading and compiling that model; specifically, an error will be generated if either side of the dot (<object> or <attribute>) is found in parameter names, compartment names, ETA labels, or EPS labels (#1159).
ETA values are always simulated from OMEGA, even when the user requests they get scraped from data or idata via etasrc argument to mrgsim(); this ensures EPS are reproducible for model runs where etasrc = "omega" (default, ETA are simulated) or, for example, where etaasrc = "data.all" (scrape ETA from the data set) (#1163).
The evdata object for modeled events now contains a check_unique member; when set to false, the event will be processed without checking for a matching record in the modeled event log (#1119).
The amt attribute in evdata modeled event objects is now considered when looking for duplicate records in the modeled event log (#1119).
Fixed a bug where multiple lagged doses given at the same time but with different bioavailability were all given the bioavailability of the last dosing record (#1129, #1130).
Fixed a bug where modeled infusions given now were never turned off (#1131).
Fixed a bug where the self object (type: databox) could not be passed into functions written into header files that were included through $INCLUDE; these header files are now included immediately preceding any user code written into $GLOBAL (#1125, #1126).
Fixed a bug where modeled event log was not getting reset after simulating the first individual; this resulted in events not getting executed in subsequent individuals when matching events were executed in the first individual; this affects modeled events only, not events coming from the data set (#1117, #1118).
Fixed a bug in detecting which compartments are receiving doses (#1112, #1113).
EPS draws; this is a change from previous behavior where records with the same time received the same value for EPS (#1110).Add new functionality for assessing consistency between names on input data set and parameter names (#1078).
check_data_names() executes the check.$INPUT for marking parameters as “inputs” and expecting them to be present in the data when check_data_names() is called.$PARAM block attributes @input and @tag for adding tags to parameters which will be checked when check_data_names() is called.param_tags() to list parameters and tags for a given model.Now checking TIME and time when assessing upper / lower case name consistency of input data sets (#1099).
ETAs can now be passed into the problem via idata by passing eta_src as either idata or idata.all to mrgsim() (#1092).
Internal refactor of mechanics checking for user interrupt during simulation (#1088).
Minor re-factor of mrgsim_nid() and documentation update to be in line with original intent; no meaningful change in functionality (#1086).
parameter_list objects can now be passed to param() (#1076).
ev_rx() syntax gains & operator allowing specification of multiple events at a single time (#1072).
Kyle Meyer added as contributor (#1096).
modlib() model 1005 re-coded to reflect the “traditional” model specification syntax (#1069).
The model object update() method will again issue a warning when unrecognized arguments are passed (#1068).
data was not recognized when using eta_src = "data" or eta_src = "data.all" (#1095).compiled.mrgmod() and as_tibble.mrgsims() based on new R-devel check findings (#1065).SIGMA() is a new model macro which allows users to access on-diagonal elements of SIGMA in the model (e.g. SIGMA(2) in $ERROR) (#1051, #1052).
mrgsim() and mrgsim_q() gain an etasrc argument, allowing ETAs to be either simulated from OMEGA (new default and previously the only behavior) or taken from the input data set (new option), similar to the way parameters can be scraped from the data set (#1037).
@etas is a new option for use with the $CAPTURE block to let users name ETAs to be captured into the simulated output; for example, use @etas 1:last to capture all model ETAs in the simulated output (#1055).
Drop CXX_STD statement from Makevars file and DESCRIPTION to be consistent with current changes in R-devel; mrgsolve continues to require compiler capable of implementing C++11 standard, but this should be selected automatically by R (#1060).
mrgsolve now depends on R >= 3.6.2 (#1060).
Fix bug when the path argument is used in the $NMXML or $NMEXT blocks; this bug was introduced through the @cppstem feature in version 1.0.7 (#1046, #1048).
Fix bug in mread_cache() where the project directory wasn’t getting rendered properly when passing the complete path to the model specification file (#1056).
$NMXML and $NMEXT now accept the run argument set to "@cppstem" (i.erun = "@cppstem"); in this case, the stem of the NONMEM run will be assumed to be the same as the stem of the mrgsolve model file (#1025).
Missing values (NA) in input data sets will be replaced with 0 for the following columns: AMT, CMT, EVID, II, ADDL, RATE, SS as well as their lower case counterparts (#1030).
Refactored include order when building a model; this is an internal update and not expected to be visible to the user (#1038).
nm-vars plugin; the bug would have resulted in a warning from the pre-processor and did not affect function of the model (#1039).TOUCH_FUNS where parameter and compartment lists were not getting generated properly when mrgsolve was not loaded; bug was detected and fixed prior to upload to CRAN or MPN (#1013).Changed behavior for dosing records where EVID = 4 and SS != 0 to match what is done by NONMEM: the system will be advanced to steady-state but will not be reset; behavior prior to 1.0.5 release was to advance to steady-state and then reset (#1011).
Any column in an input data set that has a class attribute will now be dropped in addition to non-numeric columns; this includes columns that are integer64 which can be present in data frames derived from data.table::fread() or other .csv readers (#1008).
The $MAIN and $TABLE blocks will no longer get called for actual dose administration records with lag times; this could change time after dose calculations or other calculations that could be happening in those blocks when the actual administration is taking place (#992).
Code to update the parameter list was re-factored to be much more efficient (#978).
Fix bug where apparent dosing events for additional doses with lag times were not getting scheduled (only records for the actual administration); this doesn’t change the simulated output but could change time after dose calculation (#992).
Fix bug where special nm-vars variables were not getting recognized as valid capture items during dynamic capture (#987).
Fix bug when updating the parameter list with a data frame that included non-numeric columns that were not parameters (#978).
Fix bug where as_data_frame() was not properly working when leading event object was evd type (#948, #955).
Add uctran() to convert nmtran data names to upper case (#955).
Both lctran() and uctran() are generic and work on data.frame or event (ev) objects (#949, #955).
Fix bug where data records with EVID = 3 were getting shifted in time by ALAG (#964, #969).
Small negative eigenvalues from OMEGA or SIGMA are set to zero in multivariate normal simulation of ETA and EPS, following the pattern seen in MASS::mvrnorm() (#956, #957).
Fixed bug where template parameters (T) were getting modified when nm-vars plugin was used in conjunction with mrgx plugin (#965, #968).
assert() statement in LSODA code found by CRAN check (#943).inherits() not class() from CRAN check (#943).Add LOG(), EXP(), SQRT() macros when nm-vars plugin is invoked (#931, #936).
Use evd() to create an event object which renders nmtran names in upper case (e.g. TIME rather than time) (#935, #919).
Fixed bug where rate was not getting set for modeled events (#934).
Fixed bug where self.stop_id() and self.stop_id_cf() had reversed behavior as documented (#927, #928).
Refactored EVID=3 behavior to leave NEWIND as-is (#934).
New model syntax: THETA(n) is interpreted as THETAn in the model code; THETA is now a reserved word (#837, #891, #892).
New functions collapse_omega(), collapse_sigma() and collapse_matrix() added which help to reshape OMEGA and SIGMA matrix objects with multiple blocks (#897, #900).
New plugin nm-vars which implements NONMEM-like syntax for referring to compartments, differential equations, bioavailability factor, infusion duration and rate, and lag time (#904, #891).
New plugin autodec which will find user-defined variables in the model code and automatically declare them as type double (#905, #893).
Use ii as spacer for setting the between-dose interval when putting event objects in a sequence (c.f. wait) (#906, #901).
Start deprecatingsimeta(n) and simeps(n), calls to simeta() or simeps() with an integer argument thus limiting the update to just a single ETA(n) or EPS(n); use in model code will generate warning when loading the model that contains the n integer value (#908, #909).
In pk2iv, change scaling volume for CENT from V2 (incorrect) to V1 (#831, #832, #833)

Fix typo in documentation for as_cmat(); the off-diagonals are assumed to contain correlations (#856)
Wrote a as.data.frame.matrix() function in Rcpp; all simulation results return from the C++ simulation code as a data frame (#857)
Fix bug where dynamic capture (via mread()) was not allowed for variables declared in $GLOBAL (#868)
mrgsim() will now periodically check for user interrupt signal so that long-running simulations can be stopped using Esc and / or Control-C; the check interval can be modified through the interrupt argument to mrgsim(), but for most applications, this shouldn’t need to be changed (#823)mrgsim() will issue a warning if duplicate columns are found in simulated output and rename duplicates using make.names(); thanks @FelicienLL for the report (#827, #828)OFF when they have active infusions running; this was previously an error (#822)root.xml or root.ext) are now saved in the model object when nonmem results are imported via $NMEXT or $NMXML; paths are accessible by coercing the model object with as.list() and looking at the nm_import item (#802)root argument to $NMEXT and $NMXML so that the nonmem output files are located relative to the working directory (default, previous behavior) or the directory where the cppfile is stored; cppfile will eventually replace working as the default (#803)$PRED now respect the obsonly option (#811)simeta() and simeps() now accept an (optional) integer argument to limit re-simulation to single ETA or EPS values (#789)as.list(mod) output now includes a data frame of C++ variables and pre-processor definitions in the cpp_variables slot.

mrgsolve no longer utilizes any functions from the XML package. All previous functionality that depended on XML now depends on xml2. As such, xml2 is listed under the Suggests dependency.
When using $NMXML, the $OMEGA and $SIGMA matrices are now loaded by default; see new default arguments to mrgsolve:::nmxml
Bioavailability specified in $MAIN is accounted for when simulating with qsim; there is still no bioavailability adjustment for infusions or lag times adjustments to doses
Added capability to rename data items in $CAPTURE; also, names are partially sanitized, removing parens and brackets.
For example $CAPTURE WT = WGT ETA(1) TVCL = THETA1
Added qsim_df function, returning data frame rather than matrix
Added as.list method for mrgsims objects
Added deep argument for as.list method for mrgmod object; it was taking a lot of time to return the function set, so now you only get it if deep = TRUE
Added mrgsim variant functions with explicit input requirements written into the function name. For example, call mrgsim_e to simulate from an event object, mrgsim_d to simulate from a data frame. All of these functions are called by mrgsim.
Added method so that event objects can be passed to data_set; also, coercing event objects to data_set when passed in as data
Added all.equal.mrgmod function to compare two model objects. The function returns logical (only)
Added env_get_env that always just returns the model environment; it has identical result as env_get(mod, tolist = FALSE)

mrgsolve_example and mrgsolve_template; these had been deprecated previously with warning; use modlib() models instead_env when mrgx plugin is invokedAdded file argument to mread to allow coding model specification files with any extension. The current behavior continues to be assuming that the model is in a .cpp file, but using the file argument allows any file name for model specification.
Added nocb argument to mrgsim. If nobc is TRUE (default), mrgsim continues to use next observation carried forward to advance the system when there are time-varying parameters (including covariates). If nocb is FALSE, mrgsim will use last observation carried forward (locf) to advance the system when there are time-varying parameters.

For example, simeta will link back to mrgsolve and RcppArmadillo and allow the modeler to simulate a new set of ETAs. Use Rcpp plugin to simulate random variates from common distributions in R(e.g. rnorm, rexp etc … ).$PKMODEL with ncmt=2 and depot=FALSE, the default PK parameters are CL, V1 (central volume), Q, V2 (peripheral volume).V2 (central) and V3 (peripheral).$CAPTURE now saves output items to slots in std::vector<double>, rather than std::map<std::string,double>. We’ve known for a while that the std::map wasn’t very efficient especially with large simulations.$TABLE are still saved into std::map with table() macro. The plan going forward is to eliminate that table map and force output variables into $CAPTURE.dplyr, now requiring dplyr >= 0.5.0 (#69)data slot in mrgsims objects is now data.frame
knobs function and plot method has been re-written. Overall behavior for most applications should be the same.C++ symbols for model functions are now stored in the model object (funs slot)mrgsolve:::funset(mod)
funs can be found with is.loaded
soloc directory (by default tempdir()), but mrgsolve will create a subdirectory structure to organize compilation artifacts. The outer directory is keyed based on the current mrgsolve version number and the computer platform. Inner directories are based on the model name (model(mod)).model name and the shared object is created based on that name. If the compilation is successful, the shared object (.so on mac/unix, .dll on Windows) is copied to a .so or .dll file with a unique stem (e.g. model2lj239wsfo.so). This unique shared object is loaded into the R process for use with the model.getLoadedDLLs()), are attempted to be dyn.unloaded.mread or mcode), if there are no changes to the source .cpp file, the source is not overwritten. In that case, make will not re-build the shared object. Using the preclean argument will force re-compilation (see R CMD SHLIB).modelheader.h and mrgsolv.h are no longer copied into the project directory. But CLINK_CPPFLAGS environment variable is modified to include <path-to-mrgsolve-package>/inst/base so that these may be linked.R CMD SHLIB build process always uses intern=TRUE so that output is suppressed on both Windows and mac/unix. The user may still request to view build output with the ignore.stdout argument.project directory to look for C++ header files. When including a header file that may change from build to build, always run with preclean=TRUE.mread.rate > 0 and amt==0.amt (#43).mcode function as alternative to using mread when your model is written in an R string. Note the order of the arguments: first model, then code, then project. project defaults to tempdir.mod <- mcode("mymodel", code). The equivalent mread call is: mod <- mread("mymodel", tempdir(),code).carry.out() and Req() now take newname = oldname as input. Use this syntax in carry.out when you want to copy a column from the input data set into the simulated data set, changing the column to newname from oldname.Req when you want to change the names of compartments or output variables specified in $TABLE / $CAPTURE.pkmodel function for easy loading and simulating from 1- and 2-compartment models (#39).$PKMODEL for simulating PK model with analytical solutions. The main option for this block is ncmt, which picks the number of compartments for the pk model. See ?PKMODEL for more information and other options (#34).code attribute to mrgmod objects. The actual source code stays with the model object. see was modified to look at x@code first when showing the model code.get_tokens), a wrapper for the boost tokenizer) to help checking the model specification file.$FIXED are now implemented as C++ preprocessor directives by default rather than const double variables. Use $SET fixed_type = "define" or $SET fixed_type = "const" to select between the approaches.mindt attribute to mrgmod objects with default value of .Machine$double.eps*10. When the problem includes an infusion, the calculated end of the infusion may come too close to another record. Usually the solver will fail with the message DLSODA- TOUT(=R1) too close to T(=R2) to start integration.. To fix this, set mindt to be greater than zero but small … maybe 1E-12. When mindt is greater than zero and tto - tfrom (the times of two adjacent records) is less than mindt, mrgsolve will set tto equal to tfrom (#9).zero.re didn’t properly update the $SIGMA list when one matrix was named and another was unnamed. This has been fixed. (#16)ss=1 caused mrgsolve/R to crash when the infusion duration was equal to or some multiple of the dosing interval. (#19)F_CENT to zero gave undefined behavior.F_CMT is set to zero and the ss flag is set to 1. (#22)evid=4 (reset the system and dose)addl > 0 reset the system for all subsequent doses. Additional doses coming from records with evid=4 will not do system reset. (#23)$NMXML (see ?nmxml) that are easier to understand and consistent with new prefixes and labels for ETA and EPS. name argument is removed. Use tname (to provide a prefix for THETAs), oname (to name the OMEGA matrix), and sname (to name the SIGMA matrix) instead. In general, set theta to be TRUE to import THETAs, set omega to be TRUE to import OMEGA, and set sigma to be TRUE to import SIGMA.tname, oname, and sname will imply theta=TRUE, omega=TRUE, and sigma=TRUE, respectively.DEPOT use: F_DEPOT (bioavailability), ALAG_DEPOT (dosing lag time), D_DEPOT (infusion duration), and / or R_DEPOT (infusion rate). (#13)DLSODA fails, including clear identification if the value of istate, which is 2 when the solver succeeds and negative when the solver fails.labels and prefix options to $OMEGA and $SIGMA. These allow descriptive aliases for ETAs … e.g. using ETA_CL rather than ETA(1).dplyr::slice method for mrgsims objects (#11)mread: quiet. Setting quiet to TRUE will prevent printing messages when mread is called. The default is getOptions("mrgsolve_mread_quiet",FALSE) … so you can call options(mrgsolve_mread_quiet = TRUE) to globally turn off messages from mread.
