# Assorted header-only C++ libraries for Bioconductor |Build|Status| |-----|----| | Bioc-release | [](http://bioconductor.org/checkResults/release/bioc-LATEST/assorthead) | | Bioc-devel | [](http://bioconductor.org/checkResults/devel/bioc-LATEST/assorthead) | This package vendors an assortment of header-only C++ libraries for use in Bioconductor packages. The use of a central repository avoids duplicate vendoring of libraries across multiple R packages, and enables better coordination of version updates across cohorts of interdependent C++ libraries. This package is minimalistic by design to ensure that downstream packages are not burdened with more transitive dependencies. All vendored libraries are stored in [`inst/include`](inst/include) and can be used via the usual `LinkingTo` mechanism. The corresponding license for each library is stored in [`inst/licenses`](inst/licenses). To add new libraries or to update existing versions of the vendored libraries, maintainers of **assorthead** should edit [`inst/manifest.csv`](inst/manifest.csv) and run [`inst/fetch.R`](inst/fetch.R).
