Sorry reply not quicker. For some reason I'm not getting anything in the thread I started! I found the responses in the archives. Perhaps cc: nas...@uottawa.ca please.
I have prepared a tiny (2.8K) package at http://web.ncf.ca/nashjc/jfiles/fchk_2019-6.5.tar.gz R CMD check --> OK R CMD check --as-cran --> 1 ERROR, 1 NOTE The error is in an example: > benbad<-function(x, y){ > # y may be provided with different structures > f<-(x-y)^2 > } # very simple, but ... > > y<-1:10 > x<-c(1) > cat("test benbad() with y=1:10, x=c(1)\n") > tryfc01 <- try(fc01<-fchk(x, benbad, trace=3, y)) > print(tryfc01) > print(fc01) There's quite a lot of output, but it doesn't make much sense to me, as it refers to code that I didn't write. The function fchk is attempting to check if functions provided for optimization do not violate some conditions e.g., character rather than numeric etc. JN On 2019-06-07 8:44 a.m., J C Nash wrote: > Uwe Ligges ||gge@ @end|ng |rom @t@t|@t|k@tu-dortmund@de > Fri Jun 7 11:44:37 CEST 2019 > > Previous message (by thread): [R-pkg-devel] try() in R CMD check --as-cran > Next message (by thread): [R-pkg-devel] using package data in package code > Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ] > > Right, what problem are you talking about?
