Hi,
I am trying to get write my first own package.
I followed the instructions in "Creating R Packages: A Tutorial"
and "Writing R Extensions". So far everything works really
fine, the script works and even the man-pages don't show
any problems during the check process.
During "check" there is also the package-manual.pdf created.
When I compare my manual to those at the CRAN rep, i looks different:
I seems the other manuals have a kind of "titlepage" and even the
document title is different (package 'xxx' vs. R documentation
of ‘/Users/...’ etc.).
Is that behavior simply a matter of being published at CRAN and mine is just
a local package for myself? Or do I miss a man-page which is responsible for
that first page and the title?
Which R version are you using?
I typically get "package 'xxx'" when running R CMD check but "R documentation of
‘...’ " when runnign R CMD Rd2pdf on some Rd files with R-release.
Hi, I am using R 2.14.0, so I don't know what is the reason for that behavior...
And nor can we without the reproducible example requested at the foot of
this and every R-help message.
But one quick point: the way to make a package manual is
R CMD Rd2pdf <top package source directory>
and 'R CMD check' is not intended to be the way to produce that manual,
merely a way to check that CRAN could produce it. Most likely there is
diagnostic information in the R CMD check output, but we aren't being
shown it ....
Best,
Uwe Ligges
Best regards,
Johannes
