similar to: import of Namespaces

I am trying to re-organizing my Makefile for testing my R packages and I am having trouble finding a structure I like. The problem seems to be that "R CMD check", which does wonderful things, does not allow dependency information to flow through very gracefully. That is, since everything is copied into the pkg.Rcheck directory, it is difficult to make any changes to source files without

I am being asked to modernize the Depends line in the DESCRIPTION file of some packages. Writing R Extensions says: The general rules are Packages whose namespace only is needed to load the package using library(pkgname) must be listed in the ?Imports? field and not in the ?Depends? field. Packages listed in imports or importFrom directives in the NAMESPACE file should

Hi, I have already asked a similar question twice without response on the r-help list https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2009-June/200300.html but this list might be more appropriate. If there is a particular reason for the lacking answers (unclear, missing information, the solution is obvious to everyone except me, etc), I would like to know. The description below is generalized, but I

Hi, I have built two R packages. One of them (PKG1) needs to use the functions of the other package (PKG2). So I need to link these two packages together, so that the functions of PKG2 can be available to PKG1. And when I load one package using 'library("PKG1")', PKG2 can be loaded at the same. Any ideas welcome. -- View this message in context:

Hi, I want to cross-reference from the documentation of pkg1 to pkg2, which is imported in the NAMESPACE of pkg1, and under Depends in DESCRIPTION of pkg1. According to "Writing R extensions", this can be done by: \code{\link{foo}} when foo is an aliased function in the documentation of pkg2. This works as it should when I install the package, but when I run R CMD check pgk1, I get

Hello, unfortunately I had to compile latest version of R-2.0.1 by myself. I'd rather would prefer vendors binaries but since the current version of Ubuntu defaults to 1.9.x I had to compile R on my own in order to be up to date! So far, everything went fine and R runs smoothly. Unfortunately I am not able to use R CMD INSTALL command to install add-on packages. I followed RNews 3/3 and

The current coxme code has functions that depend on bdsmatrix and others that depend on Matrix, both those pacakges define S4 methods for diag. When loaded, the message appears: replacing previous import ?diag? when loading ?Matrix? Questions: 1. Do I need to worry about this? If so, what can I do about it? I suppose I could add an importFrom directive, but it will be a pain unless there

Hello everybody, I have a problem with accessing class attributes. I think it might be due to namespace access restrictions or something similar, but I'm unable to figure it out, maybe someone knows the trick how to do it ... I'm trying to extract some information from the summary object for a model fitted using the lmer function from the lme4 package: smry <- summary(lmer(foo

Hi, 'R CMD INSTALL -l' will stop if some error is encountered. I don't find in the manual an option to keep the command running. Is there such an option? -- Tom

Hello! I have a wish/proposal. Is it possible to include some option in install.packages() for Delete downloaded files (y/N)? at the end of that process. It can be quite anoying if you must install several packages and wait meanwhile to type y/n for each package separately. -- Lep pozdrav / With regards, Gregor GORJANC ---------------------------------------------------------------

I have a question about what to do in the following situation (please bear with the setup): Package A defines an S4 generic 'foo' and as well as S4 methods for 'foo' and has exportMethods("foo") in its NAMESPACE file. Package B defines another method for 'foo' for class "bar" and has importFrom(A, "foo") exportMethods("foo")

Hi, I have already asked a similar question without response (https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2009-June/200300.html) so I am here reformulating in the hope that someone is able to help. If something is unclear, please ask. I am working on the development of two packages, pkg1 and pkg2 (based on work in two different projects). pkg1 is quite generic, pkg2 tries to solve a particular

Dear list, I have another (again possibly boneheaded) puzzle about importing, again encapsulated in a nearly trivial package. (The package is posted at <http://www.math.mcmaster.ca/bolker/misc/coefsumtest_0.001.tar.gz>.) The package consists (only) of the following S3 method definitions: coeftab <- function(object, ...) UseMethod("coeftab",object) coeftab.default <-

Hi, I am currently involved in the development of two R-packages, pkg1 and pkg2. They should not be dependent on each other, as most users will only be interested in one of them. Still, I want pkg2 to provide one extra S3 method for three functions (fun1-3) in pkg1 for objects of a class defined in pkg2 (class2), for those users who actually have both packages installed. I think this

I have encountered an issue which I have been unable to resolve, involving an S3 generic (print) being declared S4 generic in a package, and the method being exported. This all works fine - the problem occurs when I try to import the method to another package. Here is the bit that works fine. ------------- #the .r file for package bar

i am able to install zip files of packages from local zip files using the file.choose() for the package argument in install.packages() function in R console and also from the Packages menu>install from local zip files. But if there are many packages to install (say >15 or 20), then i have to factor in dependencies of 15-20 packages which may be more than 100 or 200 packages in all to be

Greetings. I am a System Administrator, and thus have very little knowledge of R itself. I have been asked to install a list of some 200 packages (from CRAM) to R. Rather than installing each package manually, I was hoping I could script this. I've written a BASH script that hopefully will do this, but I'm wondering about the Mirror Selection portion of the installation process.

Hi everyone, Some of you probably received the following thread from the Rcpp-devel mailing list: http://lists.r-forge.r-project.org/pipermail/rcpp-devel/2018-August/010072.html Summing up, the issue described is the following: pkg1 provides type1 in pkg1.so building on some headers. pkg2 links to pkg1 (BTW, LinkingTo is actually misleading, because it doesn't really link to it), i.e.,
