R devel - Oct 2010 - Will PrintWarnings remain non static?

Hi,

The C function PrintWarnings is currently not in the C API, but it is
declared non static in the svn trunk as of revision 53110 . As this is
the only function that creates the last.warning object used by the R
function warnings(), I think it would be useful for programs that
embed R to be able to call it.

So, will it remain non static, that is callable although it's not
declared in the public C API?

Thanks,

Jeff

Anyone have comments on this? PrintWarnings would be nice to utilize
for those embedding R.

Thanks,

Jeff

I had missed your previous post.

Rf_PrintWarnings is pretty useful when embedding R, indeed. We do use it in 
RKWard. So I would certainly appreciate if it could be promoted into the 
public C API.
