\value documentation to every exported function, and
replaced the \dontrun{} examples with self-contained,
executable ones.extract.gdx now uses inherits() for
symbol-type checks and reports the offending class in its
unknown-symbol-type error (previously referenced an undefined
variable).gdx(filename) now opens the file in lazy mode by
default: only symbol metadata (names, dimensions, domains, descriptions)
is read up front, and each symbol’s records are fetched on first access
via [.gdx / extract(). Pass
lazy = FALSE to restore the 1.0.0 behavior (all records
loaded at open time).gdx() open cost: in our benchmark, ~3.7 s lazy
vs. ~6.6 s eager. Per-extract cost stays sub-50 ms when records have not
been loaded yet, and is essentially free on cache hit.gamstransfer::Container is
kept for record reads. Reading symbols into the metadata container is
O(symCount) per call because gamstransfer revalidates the existing
symbol table; reading into a dedicated empty container is O(1) — ~10 ms
vs. ~800 ms per extract on the WITCH gdx.batch_extract() now performs a single bulk
read() per file (pre-loading all requested items) before
iterating, which is one C++ round-trip per gdx instead of one per
(item, gdx) pair.load_records(gdx, symbols = NULL) helper:
explicitly batch-load records when you know up front which symbols
you’ll need. With symbols = NULL it loads everything
(equivalent to opening eagerly, but deferrable).gdx() now does a single-pass describe via
Container$getSymbols() instead of five separate
list*() calls followed by per-symbol dimension /
description vapply — about 2× faster on a gdx with many equations.all_items() now returns the cached name vectors stored
on the gdx object rather than re-querying the container.Behavior note: in lazy mode, accessing the
underlying container directly via
mygdx$.container[name]$records returns NULL
until the symbol has been extracted at least once. Code that bypasses
extract / [ and reaches into
.container for records should either call
load_records() first or open with
lazy = FALSE. Domain / class / dimension queries on
.container are unaffected.
src/ removed).gdx(),
[.gdx, extract(), all_items(),
batch_extract(), write.gdx(),
write2.gdx(). Existing user code calling these should not
need changes.write.gdx() no longer shells out to a GAMS process; the
removeLST, usetempdir and digits
arguments are accepted for compatibility but ignored.
compress = TRUE still produces a compressed GDX.write2.gdx() is now a thin alias of
write.gdx() (both use the same fast path).igdx() and gams() are kept as thin
compatibility shims (PATH-based GAMS discovery + system2
runner). The lower-level gdxrrw-shaped exports rgdx,
wgdx, gdxInfo, rgdx.param,
rgdx.set and rgdx.scalar have been
removed.na = c("drop", "keep", "error") on
write.gdx() / write2.gdx() — controls how NA /
NaN values in parameter value columns are handled. Defaults
to "drop" (legacy v0.7 semantic: silently discarded, GAMS
reads 0 for those keys). "keep" preserves them as GAMS NA /
undef; "error" stops with an informative message.dup = c("first", "last", "error") on
write.gdx() / write2.gdx() — controls
duplicate-key collapsing. Defaults to "first" (legacy
write2.gdx / wgdx semantic, which
auto-selected in 95% of v0.7 calls). "last" matches the
legacy write.gdx GAMS-process path; "error"
stops when duplicates are present. A warning fires for both
first and last so dropped rows are always
audible.write.gdx() drops default-valued records for free
variables (level=0, lower=-Inf, upper=+Inf) to match legacy v0.7
semantic (subset(v, value!=0) for level,
subset(v, !is.infinite(value)) for bounds). Downstream
tools (notably WITCH’s witchtools time-period extension) rely on the
absence of zero-level records to back-fill early years from the first
non-default record.gdx() strips the position suffix gamstransfer adds to
relaxed-string domain columns (witch13_3 →
witch13). Callers look up the bare set name
(df$witch13) and previously fell back silently when the
suffix was present, which left WITCH parameters un-aggregated.write.gdx() warns when an index column is
double-precision numeric with non-integer content. Catches a common
scripting bug where a stray numeric column (e.g. low /
high left over from a parquet read) silently becomes an
extra UEL-string dimension. Integer-valued doubles (year stored as
1850.0) are still silent.write.gdx() collapses duplicate set rows the same way
as parameter and variable keys.write.gdx() collapses duplicate index keys with
dup = "first" (default) and warns with the dropped-row
count.write.gdx() writes empty variables as a declaration of
the right dimension instead of silently dropping them.write.gdx() handles duplicate index column names
(e.g. (*, *, value) from a data.table) by
make.unique-ing the records while preserving the original
domain reference on the symbol.write.gdx() no longer leaks set column names as
separate symbols in the output GDX (e.g. an explicit set r
no longer produced a stray r parameter).write.gdx() pre-flight checks for NA values in index
columns and stops with a clear error instead of letting gamstransfer’s
C++ layer abort the R session with SIGABRT.gdx() suppresses the gamstransfer acronym warning
emitted at load time for symbols that use the GAMS Acronym
facility.
