..."JULIAN BAJKOWSKI with ","Cand BAKER","smith green")     I want to get the following result from "import" after comparing the two sets   result<-c("by DAVID ADAMS","piersAKERMAN","JULIAN BAJKOWSKI with ")     I created a "partialmatch" function as follow, but can not get right result. partialmatch<- function(x, y) as.vector(y[regexpr(as.character(x), as.character(y), ignore.case = TRUE)>0]) result<-partialmatch(dig,import) [1] "by DAVID ADAMS" Thanks, lynn _________________________________...

...ns, then abbreviate the names as I call them. This behavior has been termed ?lazy? in various correspondence on this mailing list but it works for me and probably works for others. I realize that the new message is only a warning but it is a minor nuisance. Would it be possible to add an option(partialMatch=TRUE) ## default is FALSE or something similar to suppress that behavior? That should keep both camps happy.

...(!Inst) return true; (...) } So if V1==V2, BasicAA will yield MustAlias. I couldn't find any evidence that access sizes must be equal for 2 pointers to be MustAlias. Unless someone can prove that statement wrong, we have to conclude that CFL* AAs are being too conservative by yielding PartialMatch when sizes don't match. Nuno P.S.: This is not to say that SCEV AA hasn't bugs: I think I found one by inspection; I've asked a colleague to review and will report it soon. Not sure there's an easy fix for it, though.

...um set of partially-matched calls while leaving potentially many other similar at-risk call sites unchanged. Better to enforce exact matching in package code globally, I think. It seems likely (given how options work in R) that committed authors will be able to sidestep the issue by disabling the PartialMatch warnings, but better to make this inconvenient with a stricter default.

Thank you all for your replies. So here seems to be an agreement that the documentation for PartialAlias is incorrect. Daniel: now you got me wondering about MustAlias. This is what the docs say: "The MustAlias response may only be returned if the two memory objects are *guaranteed to always start at exactly the same location*" This statement is regardless of the access sizes.
