| Hello,
|
| I commited the has_element_called method on the Vector template
(vectors
| of all sorts, incl lists).
+1, but how about just calling it 'contains' rather
'has_element_called' ?
I think 'contains' would imply a value
in the vector rather than a name. The
extra typing might be worth avoiding
that confusion.

I don't mind if the name changes, but Pat has a point.

| For example:
|
| require(Rcpp)
| require(inline)
|
| fx<- cxxfunction( signature( x_ = "list" ), '
| List x(x_) ;
| bool has_foo = x.has_element_called( "foo" ) ;
| Rprintf( "has(foo) = %d\\n", has_foo ) ;
|
| bool has_bar = x.has_element_called( "bar" ) ;
| Rprintf( "has(bar) = %d\\n" , has_bar) ;
|
| return R_NilValue ;
| ', plugin = "Rcpp" )
|
| x<- list( foo = 2, bla = 1:10 )
| fx( x )
|
|
| For the curious amongst you, the code looks like this :
|
| /**
| * Does this vector have an element with the target name
| */
| bool has_element_called( const char* target ) const {
| SEXP names = RCPP_GET_NAMES(m_sexp) ;
| if( Rf_isNull(names) ) return false ;
| int n = Rf_length(names) ;
| for( int i=0; i<n; i++){
| if( !strcmp( target, CHAR(STRING_ELT(names, i)) ) ) return
| true ;
| }
| return false ;
| }
|
| It would be awesome if someone would contribute a unit test for this
| feature based on the inline snippet above.
I'll get to it.
