When I load R-WinEdt (>library(RWinEdt), I get the warning:
Warning message: multi-argument returns are deprecated in: return(InstallRoot, RWinEdtInstalled)
I have upgraded to R 1. 8 on Windows, by copying non-base libraries into the 1.8 library folder and updating the help.
I also reinstalled R-WinEdt from the zip file as detailed in RWinEdt ReadMe file using the recommend (A) installation and still get the same warning.
I have a few questions:
1) Should I be concerned about this warning?
1a) What is deprecating?
See ?Deprecated:
"These functions are provided for compatibility with older versions of R only, and may be defunct as soon as of the next release."
2) Is there a way fix it so that the warning message is fixed and RWinEdt loads properly?
Yes: Use the recent version of R-WinEdt in package RWinEdt_1.5-1.zip
2a) I read the help file on the return function which mentions, "Prior to R 1.8.0, 'value' could be a series of non-empty expressions separated by commas" Would the fix be to find the part of some code that is executing (whatever and where ever that might be) when the editor loads and change it to some thing like ">return(InstallRoot); return(RWinEdtInstalled)"?
No, the fix is to change it to return(list(InstallRoot = InstallRoot, RWinEdtInstalled = WinEdtInstalled)) which already has been done for the recent version.
