Hello, As the subject says, what is the best way to specify a minimum compiler version in the DESCRIPTION file.
I only found 2 packages on CRAN that have a minimum requirement for GCC, however they both seem to be divergent in style. I could not find anything definitive in Writing R Extensions. I don't want to imply that one absolutely needs a specific compiler (i.e. if you are using Mac clang is used so I wouldn't expect Mac user to jump through a bunch of hoops to use a specific gcc compiler), I just want to give users of differing systems something informative to help them out. There is more information here: https://github.com/jwood000/RcppAlgos/issues/13 Thanks, Joseph Wood ______________________________________________ R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel
