Hi Vincent,
BH currently works the way that the package sources
(and that includes BH/inst/include/boost/*) are
automagically created by bcp'ing the dependencies
of *some* R packages (e.g. bigmemory on rforge).
John and Dirk et al said that people can ask
for additional dependencies on the tracker [1].
If you want to port your package to BH
and figure out the required dependencies,
check out svn://r-forge.r-project.org/svnroot/boostheaders
and edit boostheaders/CreateBoost.R (see how I munged
that file on [2] ...)
Then iterate over
cd boostheaders
rm -rf pkg/BH
R --vanilla <CreateBoost.R
R CMD INSTALL pkg/BH
R CMD INSTALL /your/package/
until success. Unfortunately with boost, it might not
be as straightforward as adding " graph ",
that's why I have that insane "find /my/package -exec bcp -scan"
in my hacked [2]. Also note that in a hacked version of
CreateBoost.R it is possible to switch between boost versions.
Yours,
Steffen
