Dear all,
The problem:
I struggle to solve a WARNING that is shown on the CRAN system but not on my
side when I use "R-devel check --as-cran IndependenceTests". This seems to be
related to the declaration of a LAPACK Fortran subroutine (zhpevx) that I call
from C.
I could not find any hint on Google allowing me to solve the issue. I read the
following sections of the "Writing R Extensions" manual (but could not
understand how to solve the problem):
* 4.5 Using Link Time Optimization
* 6.6 Calling C from Fortran and vice versa
Maybe the solution is obvious, but not to me.
The warning shown on CRAN is:
checking whether package �IndependenceTests� can be installed ...
[11s/11s] WARNING
Found the following significant warnings:
myzhpevx.cpp:13:23: warning: type of �zhpevx_� does not match original
declaration [-Wlto-type-mismatch]
Other feedback I received from the CRAN team:
Professor Brian Ripley suggested the two pieces of advice below (which I
believe to have followed):
* For registering/interfacing Fortran calls,
gfortran -c -fc-prototypes-external
is the best way to extract a prototype (with gfortran >= 9.2). If this
includes int_least32_t, see the comment below on Fortran-LOGICAL.
hint).
*
Fortran subroutines correspond to C void functions
What is the current state of my source code:
I have a Fortran subroutine (defined in the file src/zhpevx.f at line 232):
SUBROUTINE zhpevx( JOBZ, RANGE, UPLO, N, AP, VL, VU, IL, IU,
$ abstol, m, w, z, ldz, work, rwork, iwork,
$ ifail, info )
This subroutine is declared (in file myzhpevx.cpp at line 13) as follows:
void F77_NAME(zhpevx)(char *jobz, char *range, char *uplo,
const int *n, Rcomplex *ap, const double *vl,
const double *vu, const int *il, const int *iu,
const double *abstol, int *m, double *w,
Rcomplex *z, const int *ldz, Rcomplex *work, double *rwork,
int *iwork, int *ifail, int *info,
FC_LEN_T jobz_len, FC_LEN_T range_len, FC_LEN_T uplo_len);
Source package can be downloaded here:

My system:
Linux Debian 10 Buster
Last version of R-devel
Many thanks in advance for your help.
