Dear,

I was expecting this reaction.

Please do not get caught up in the details of the examples,
which I have tried to make as simple as possible for your
benefit.

The main point is that if you remove the lines associated
with

boost/math/distributions/


the warning disappears as well. Ergo,

boost/math/distributions/

is causing the warnings.

Best regards,

Err, why? BH does nothing wrong.

You are NOT forced or required to use the Boost distributions header __as R
comes with the equivalent functionality__ via the Rmath.h header file from R.
Which has functionality that Rcpp provides to you in scalar and vector form.

And there are probably several dozen examples of using the R distribution
functions from Rcpp.

So this is _precisely_ what I suggested several mails ago: do your homework,
identify which header is causing it.  And the obvious next step is then to
not use the header.
