Hi all, When developing a package, it's often useful to be able to reload it, without re-installing, re-starting R and re-loading. To do this I've written a little script that inspects the package description and loads dependencies, data and code - http://gist.github.com/180883. It's obviously not very general (being tailored to my description files) and won't work for packages containing C code, but I hope you might find it useful nonetheless. Any comments would be appreciated. Hadley
Nice. I would guess many of us would have versions of this, it would be good to formalise it so that it could deal with : - namespaces, you might want your unexported functions to be separate from your exported functions. It looks like your function loads everything into .GlobalEnv - S4 objects, what would happen if you re-source the definition of an S4 class and continue to manage objects created before the resourcing
