| Version | Published | Release Notes | Action |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1.3.0 | Added capability for char and logical types. Added the typecastx files for convenience. |
||
| 1.2.0 | Fixed a sparse matrix bug. |
||
| 1.1.0 | Changed algorithm from deep data copy to shared data copy. Thus the C-mex typecast is more efficient than the MATLAB intrinsic typecast. Also added the capability to handle complex inputs. |
||
| 1.0.0 | I am adding an m-file so that "help typecast" will work. |
