similar to: formals(x)<- drops attributes including class

First, why does this expression have a 'srcref' element: > exprA <- substitute(function(x) a*x, list(a=2)) > print(exprA) function(x) 2 * x > str(as.list(exprA)) List of 4 $ : symbol function $ :Dotted pair list of 1 ..$ x: symbol $ : language 2 * x $ :Class 'srcref' atomic [1:8] 1 20 1 34 20 34 1 1 .. ..- attr(*, "srcfile")=Classes

Dear R-devel, In a package of mine, I use removeSource on expression objects in order to make expressions that are semantically the same serialize to the same byte sequences: https://github.com/cran/depcache/blob/854d68a/R/fixup.R#L8-L34 Today I learned that expressions containing function definitions also contain the source references for the functions, not as an attribute, but as a separate

If you can afford a dependency on rlang, `rlang::zap_srcref()` deals with this. It's recursive over expression vectors, calls (including calls to `function` and their hidden srcref arg), and function objects. It's implemented in C for efficiency as we found it to be a bottleneck in some applications (IIRC caching). I'd be happy to upstream this in base if R core is interested. Best,

Thanks, this was what I expected. There is a desire to eliminate the usage of pairlist from user code, which suggests the alternative of allowing for function arguments to be stored in lists. That's a much deeper change though. On Wed, Oct 12, 2016 at 12:31 PM, Henrik Bengtsson <henrik.bengtsson at gmail.com> wrote: > Michael, thanks for this info. > > I've stumbled upon

Specifically, the srcfile attribute of the srcref attribute of the two instances of the functions contain different environments, AFAICT. Environments are compared only by exact pointer, so this forces return FALSE.

In R <= 2.13.x, calling 'parse( con)' where 'con' is a connection, 'options( keep.source)' is TRUE, and default 'srcfile' would preserve the source. In R >= 2.14.1, it doesn't. > tf <- tempfile() > options( keep.source=TRUE) > texto <- c( 'function() { # comment', '}') > parse( text=texto) expression(function() { #

I noticed the following file descriptor leak when I couldn't remove a package unless I shut down the R session that had loaded and used it. The function that triggered the problem printed the output of a call to parse(). Each time one prints a srcref a connection is opened and not closed. It looks like it happens in as.character.srcref's call to getSrcLines, which has some logic I

Hello, Consider this file (/tmp/test.R) : <file> f <- function( x, y = 2 ){ z <- x + y print( z ) } </file> I get this in R 2.7.2 : > p <- parse( "/tmp/test.R" ) > str( attr( p, "srcref" ) ) List of 1 $ :Class 'srcref' atomic [1:4] 1 1 4 1 .. ..- attr(*, "srcfile")=Class 'srcfile' length 4 <environment>

Hello, It seems that the parsing information attached to expressions parsed by the parse() function when keep.source=TRUE is not provided to the eval() function. Please consider this code: path <- tempfile() code <- '(function() print( str( sys.calls() ) ))()' writeLines(code, path) sys.source(path, envir=globalenv(), keep.source=TRUE) > OUTPUT: Dotted pair list of 4 $ :

I have just committed some changes to R-devel (which will become R 2.5.0 next spring) to add source references to parsed R code. Here's a description of the scheme: The design is done through 2 old-style classes. "srcfile" corresponds to a source file: it contains a filename, the working directory in which that filename is to be interpreted, the last modified timestamp of the

Hello, I submit a patch for review that implements code coverage tracing in the R interpreter. It records the lines that are actually executed and their associated frequency for which srcref information is available. I perfectly understands that this patch will not make its way inside R as it is, that they are many concerns of stability, compatibility, maintenance and so on. I would like to have

Dear R-Core Team, I found an unexpected behaviour in utils::removeSource (also present in r-devel as of today). --- # create a function which accepts NULL argument foo <- function(x, y) { if (is.null(y)) y <- "default foo" attr(x, "foo") <- y x } # create a function which utilizes 'foo' testSrc <- function() { x <- 1:3 x <- foo(x,

I'm confused by this: > identical(function() {}, function() {}) [1] FALSE Yet, after loading the Matrix package (which redefines det), the following is checked (in library.checkConflicts): > identical(get("det", baseenv()), get("det", asNamespace("Matrix")), ignore.environment=T) [1] TRUE I've looked at the code in identical.c and for closures it

In my .Rprofile I have the following functions which display the current directory in the main R window title bar, and modify base::setwd() to keep this up to date. I like this because I can always tell where I am in the file system. cd <- function(dir) { base::setwd(dir) utils::setWindowTitle( short.path(base::getwd()) ) } short.path <- function(dir, len=2) { np

Hi Henrik, It would help to understand your use case for pairlists.

Hi again, this is a follow-up of my previous post : I've noticed that > attr(first.list[[1]]$size.ecdf,"call") gives ecdf(test.moms[, "m.pxs"]) and that there is no "test.moms" field in my records (a local variable named test.moms was used inside a function, but it was stored under another name in the list, outside the function) May this be the answer (and
