Dear R users,I am currently writing a R package and to do so I am following the guidelines in manual 'Writing R extensions'. In Section 3.1, it is suggested to tidy up the code using a file containing the following: options(keep.source = FALSE) source("myfuns..R") dump(ls(all = TRUE), file = new.myfuns.R") I have done this for my own packages and although it runs, I get several warnings of the type: Warning message: In dump(ls(all = TRUE), file = "PermAlgo.R") : deparse may be incomplete I am clueless as to what this means. Even if I try to tidy only one function from my code, I get the warning. E.g. the file lala.R contains only this: partialHazards <- function(t, v, covArray, betas){ exp( covArray[v,t,] %*% betas ) } the file tidylala.R contains: options(keep.source = FALSE) source("lala.R") dump(ls(all = TRUE), file = "newlala.R") On Linux I run:R --vanilla < tidylala.RThen I obtain: Warning message: In dump(ls(all = TRUE), file = "newlala.R") : deparse may be incomplete The file newlala.R looks like this: `partialHazards` <- function (t, v, covArray, betas) { exp(covArray[v, t, ] %*% betas) } What does the warning mean? Can I simply ignore it?
The warning means that you may have lost some information, i.e. sourcing newlala.R won't produce the same thing as sourcing lala.R. I think in your case, there's no loss, so it's a bug, but I don't have time to track down why you're getting it.
