R devel - May 2015 - Defining Constant variable in a package

Hi all,

In my package, I define some constant. In the previous version of R, I just
define then in
"/data/constants.R" but it seems that it is no longer possible.
Instead, I am asked to "define them
in the namespace". I am not sure to understand what it means. Shall I
define them in the NAMESPACE
file?

Christophe

I'm guessing you just need to define them in /R/constants.R and then
export() them from the NAMESPACE.
