[R] how to update R files included assource ?
Hi all, I have a main file main.R in which I include some other R files. For example, in main.R I have: source(functions.R). When I modify the file functions.R, I'd like R to take into account the changes and to reload the file functions.R when I run main.R Is it possible?

You source a functions.R file from main.R. When you run main.R, whatever is in the functions.R file will be sourced. What is happening that is different than you expect? --Erik __ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.

Hi, I'm afraid I really don't have time to enter into a dialogue :-{ but this fragment from a function of mine might help... -- outfile - sub(Rd$, html, hfile, ignore.case=TRUE) # name of corresponding html out.mod - file.info(outfile)[,mtime] # if html absent or needs updating if (is.na(out.mod)||file.info(hfile)[,mtime] out.mod) tools::Rd2HTML(hfile, outfile, .Package) # do it --- The third line (inter alia) checks the modification time of the 'target' file and decides whether to process it.
