I have a package that uses win.version from the utils package. I've made my R code safe to use across platforms, I check that the OS is Windows before calling win.version.
The NAMESPACE file contains the line importFrom(utils,win.version) which causes an install failure under other OSes since that function doesn't exist. Can I use this platform-dependent function and still have a cross-platform package? Also, it seems like it would be nicer if the utils package always included this function and returned NA with a warning on platforms other than Windows. Does that sound like a reasonable change? -- Regards, Richie Learning R <http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920028352.do> 4dpiecharts.com [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel
