Below is my full implementation (tried to make it simple as for demonstration)
Lapply_me = function(X = X, FUN = FUN, Apply_MC = FALSE, ...) {
if (Apply_MC) {
return(mclapply(X, FUN, ...))
} else {
if (any(names(list(...)) == 'mc.cores')) {
myList = list(...)[!names(list(...)) %in% 'mc.cores']
}
return(lapply(X, FUN, myList))
}
}
Lapply_me(as.list(1:4), function(xx) {
if (xx == 1) return('a')
if (xx == 2) return('b')
if (xx == 3) return('c')
if (xx == 4) return('d')
}, Apply_MC = FALSE, mc.cores = 2)
Error message :
Error in FUN(X[[i]], ...) : unused argument (list())
Kindly note that, with Apply_MC = TRUE, it is working perfectly.
