Dear all,
I'm facing a strange behavior in the the C code of a R package. This package,
"rcqp", is a wrapper on an existing program that I did not write, "CWB".
In this package, on a linux (ubuntu and debian) system, the code :
printf(%d\n", isupper('A'));
outputs :
0
When compiled with the R framework (It behaves correctly when CWB is compiled
as a standalone program).
On mac osx, the code produce the expected output.
This unexpected output is observed only in the context of CWB compiled through
rcqp, only on linux (not mac osx), and only under certains circumstances, since
a minimal R package produce the expected output. Even in CWB, this strange
behavior is not observed in any part of the code.
When observed, a work-around for this problem is to remove the include in which
this very function, isupper, is defined:
#include <ctype.h>
Since the program is compiled and run correctly without this "include",
isupper() seems to be also declared elsewhere or ctype to be found by another
mechanism, and the problem seems be due to interactions between the R headers
(?) and the include of the CWB code…
Have you already observed such an effect or do you have any hint?
Best,
Sylvain
