Hi,
as far as I understand it, the new R devel feature of processing
non-Sweave vignettes will (a) locate any "[.][RrSs](nw|tex)$" or
".Rmd" files, (b) check for a registered vignette engine, (c) process
the file using the registered "weave" function, (d) and possibly post
process the generated we

I would argue that addressing this at a generic R level is the wrong place
(almost, see below) -- because this is about *specific* finalizers. You don't
mind running other people 's finalizers because they don't mess up your
connection. Therefore, I'd argue that primarily the approach should be

We're actually adopting the first of your generic approaches.
As a more concrete description:
There are R objects representing survey data sets, with the data stored in
a database table. The subset() method, when applied to these objects,
creates a new table indicating which rows of the d
I'm not sure I got your problem right, but you can keep a named copy
of your not-to-be-finalized object as long as it needs to be around,
so it doesn't go out of scope too early.
Something like:
local({
dontFinalizeMe <- obj
##
## code which creates copies, overwrites, and indirectly uses
It might help if you could be more specific about what the issue is --
if they are out of scope why does it matter whether the finalizers
run?
Generically two approaches I can think of:
you keep track of whenit is safe to fully run your finalizers and have
your finalizers put the objects
