Thanks. Fixed in R-devel and R-patched. This now gives
f <- function(n) {
print(ls.str())
rep("hello", times = n)
}
f(n)
## n : <missing>
## Error in f(n) : object 'n' not found
## In addition: Warning message:
## In f(n) : restarting interrupted promise evaluation
Best,
luke

Greetings,
The following is based on a question I raised on Stackoverflow:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46280120/calling-printls-str-in-function-affect-behavior-of-rep/46283979#46283979
Start a new R session with an empty Global Env. Then define:
f <- function(n) {
print(ls.str())
rep("hello", times = n)
}
Now run:
f(x)
Instead of getting the expected "object 'x' not found" error, you get:
n : <missing>[1] "hello"
It was suggested that I file the issue here as a possible bug.
Regards,
Homer
