Regards, Jan Gorecki I agree that this would be a useful option sometimes. So I would be supportive to get such an option, say, R CMD check --no-stop-on-error <pkg>
A couple of years ago the behavior of 'R CMD check' was changed to continue checking (e.g. the examples) after many types of errors, and to output a summary count of errors at the end if any have occurred. So --no-stop-on-error could easily be interpreted as an option that controls this behavior (and would also suggest that the default has been reverted back to what it was prior to R 3.2.0), rather than an option that specifically controls what should happen while running the tests.

into R if someone provided (relatively small) patches to the R sources (i.e. subversion repos at https://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk/ ). The relevant source code should basically all be in src/library/tools/R/testing.R Note that this may be complicated, also because "parallel" checking is available in parts, via the TEST_MC_CORES environment variable ((which is currently only quickly documented in the 'R Administration ..' manual)) Martin Maechler ETH Zurich ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
