Folks: I am getting a build failure when I: #' @importFrom utils shortPathName
which roxygenizes it to the NAMESPACE. I suspect this is because this particular function is Windows-only, but I'm a bit confused how I should "properly" importFrom a function like this so it doesn't cause a build failure, but I don't get a note in my R CMD CHECK if I DON'T have it: gdal_setInstallation : correctPath: no visible global function definition for 'shortPathName' gdalinfo: no visible global function definition for 'glob2rx' gdallocationinfo: no visible global function definition for 'write.table' gdaltransform: no visible global function definition for 'write.table' get_subdatasets: no visible global function definition for 'glob2rx' mosaic_rasters: no visible global function definition for 'write.table' Undefined global functions or variables: glob2rx shortPathName write.table Consider adding importFrom("utils", "glob2rx", "shortPathName", "write.table") to your NAMESPACE. I'll note my function actually first checks to see what OS is running, and doesn't use this function on non-Windows machines, so having this function does not cause any actual errors: ... if (.Platform$OS.type=="windows") { x <- shortPathName(x) } else { x <- path.expand(x) } ... Is there a way to do a conditional importFrom based on the OS? Or can I safely ignore this (I'm trying to submit to CRAN). --j [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
