Re: [Rd] using a "third party" DLL in my package

2009-05-23 Thread Prof Brian Ripley
It is likely that this is related to using higher-precision FPU registers, in which case there is a portable solution: look up SAFE_FFLAGS in 'Writing R Extensions'. But if that is the cause, the real solution is to write the code using proper convergence tests. On Sat, 23 May 2009, Kasper D

[Rd] Can a function know what other function called it?

2009-05-23 Thread Kynn Jones
Suppose function foo calls function bar. Is there any way in which bar can find out the name of the function that called it, "foo"? There are two generalization to this question that interest me. First, can this query go farther up the call stack? I.e. if bar now calls baz, can baz find out the
