Changes in version 0.15-45                       

  - Changed the public crs.formula() NOMAD evaluation-budget default
    max.bb.eval to NULL, allowing crs() to choose route-specific
    defaults after route selection. Continuous-only frscvNOMAD searches
    now default to max.bb.eval=10000, while kernel/categorical
    krscvNOMAD searches default to max.bb.eval=1000. These defaults were
    set on the basis of simulation evidence and real-world applications;
    explicit user-supplied values continue to override the route
    defaults.

  - Repaired public-wrapper consistency so crs() forwards NOMAD search
    controls to frscvNOMAD consistently with krscvNOMAD, including
    random.seed, max.bb.eval, integer mesh/frame geometry controls, and
    quantile level tau.

  - Made NOMAD multistart generation invariant to progress/display
    settings in frscvNOMAD and krscvNOMAD, so enabling or suppressing
    optimizer progress no longer changes the starting-value geometry or
    fitted result.

                Changes in version 0.15-44 (2026-06-01)                 

  - Added the final package-author native NOMAD C API (crs_nomad_solve)
    with C and R callback modes, explicit option arrays, generated
    starts, multistart support, budget handling, mesh-size array
    options, interrupt handling, and deterministic seed behavior for
    downstream packages.
  - Exposed NOMAD native cache counters from snomadr() (cache.hits,
    cache.size, callback.evaluations, and total.evaluations) so
    downstream callers can distinguish true R callback evaluations from
    points satisfied by NOMAD's cache without changing optimizer
    behavior.
  - Hardened native NOMAD API contracts by rejecting cache-off native
    solves, mirroring infinite objective handling, documenting
    main-thread affinity for R callback routes, and tightening
    named-list validation in native helpers.
