I am trying to create a function with a package with a NAMESPACE that will save() some variables, distribute an Rdata file to another computer, where it will be load()ed. The problem is that this load() tries to load the namespace of the package on the original computer that created the .Rdata file, but this package need not be loaded on the new computer.
This example function is in a package in a namespace : create.global.function <- function(x, FUN, ...) { environment(FUN) <- .GlobalEnv assign(".GLOBAL.FUN", function(x) { FUN(x, ...) }, env=.GlobalEnv) environment(.GLOBAL.FUN) <- .GlobalEnv save(list = ls(envir = .GlobalEnv, all.names = TRUE), file = "/tmp/.Rdata", envir = .GlobalEnv) } And then if I quit my session and then try to load("/tmp/.Rdata") without loading the package, it will try to loadNamespace from the .Rdata file and then fail. Is it possible to fully strip the namespace out of the .GLOBAL.FUN before I save() it such that it can be loaded into other R instances without trying to load the namespace?
