[Rd] Control statements with condition with greater than one should give error (not just warning) [PATCH]
I'd like to propose that the whenever the length of condition passed to an if or a while statement differs from one, an error is produced rather than just a warning as today:> x <- 1:2 > if (x == 1) message("x == 1")x == 1 Warning message: In if (x == 1) message("x == 1") : the condition has length > 1 and only the first element will be used There are probably legacy reasons for why this is accepted by R in the first place, but I cannot imagine than anyone wants to use an if/while statement this way on purpose. The warning about this misuse, was introduced in November 2002 (R-devel thread 'vector arguments to if()'; https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2002-November/025537.html). Below is patch (also attached) that introduces option 'check.condition' such that when TRUE, it will generate an error rather than a warning (default). This option allows for a smooth migration as it can be added to 'R CMD check --as-cran' and developers can give time to check and fix their packages. Eventually, check.condition=TRUE can become the new default. With options(check.condition = TRUE), one gets:> x <- 1:2 > if (x == 1) message("x == 1")Error in if (x == 1) message("x == 1") : the condition has length > 1 and> while (x < 2) message("x < 2")Error in while (x < 2) message("x < 2") : the condition has length > 1 Index: src/library/base/man/options.Rd ==================================================================--- src/library/base/man/options.Rd (revision 72298) +++ src/library/base/man/options.Rd (working copy) @@ -86,6 +86,11 @@ vector (atomic or \code{\link{list}}) is extended, by something like \code{x <- 1:3; x[5] <- 6}.} + \item{\code{check.condition}:}{logical, defaulting to \code{FALSE}.

No new code, package updates etc should be allowed to only pass if they have to use check.condition = FALSE.> > No --- don't even think of allowing an option for something such basic!But, how you propose a warning-to-error transition should be made without wreaking havoc? Just flip the switch in R-devel and see CRAN and Bioconductor packages break overnight? Particularly Bioconductor devel might become non-functional (since at times it requires R-devel). For my own code / packages, I would be able to handle such a change, but I'm completely out of control if one of the package I'm depending on does not provide a quick fix (with the only option to remove package tests for those dependencies). My idea is that with this option, then this can be tested at runtime locally by users and developers (cf. warnPartialMatchArgs), but also via R CMD check. It would also provide CRAN with a way to check it on incoming submissions as on the test farm - eventually all CRAN packages pass without errors. This option would only exist for a number of R releases (first default to FALSE, then TRUE) and then eventually be deprecated and removed. Does this clarify my design? As an alternative to an option, one could use an environment variable R_CHECK_CONDITION that is a bit "hidden" from misuse. /Henrik> > Martin Maechler > ETH Zurich (and R Core) > > > it will generate an error > > rather than a warning (default).
