I don't think the function is new.  Maybe this part of the testing is new.

Using tools:::.check_package_datasets() produces the error,  but doesn't give 
out any more information.  I don't know enough about some fo the write() 
function.  If I write to csv of some sort,  will this information be preserved?

Re: [R-pkg-devel] Finding UTF character in .RData file

2019-08-05 Thread Roy Mendelssohn - NOAA Federal via R-package-devel
Thanks.  What is surprising me is I can't reproduce the error either directly 
on my Mac or on rhub::windows and I am waiting for the result of win-builder  
(I can't check most rhub::linux  because it fails to correctly build a number 
of required packages,  something I have reported but still persists - like 
rgdal,  rerddap, crul,  ncdf4).

That message comes when the tools:::.check_package_datasets function 
detects a string containing a UTF-8 encoding.  You can run it directly 
and you might get a more informative message.  If not, I suppose you 
could fix() it and add some extra debugging messages


It's argument is "pkgDir"; I think that is the directory holding the

[R-pkg-devel] Finding UTF character in .RData file

readily scan for UTF,  is there a way once I read the data into R to do a
