[R-pkg-devel] How to update the email address of a package maintainer

Is there any way at all to update the email address of the maintainer of a package? (The address of the maintainer of CVXR which is in need of an update for the new SCS solver has changed from  @stanford.edu to @alumni.stanford.edu, with no access to the former.) -Naras __

Re: [R-pkg-devel] R feature suggestion: Duplicated function arguments check

I think this is similar in nature (though not detail) to an issue raised on StackOverflow where the OP used "x" in dot args and it clashed with the "x" in a numDeriv call in my optimx package. I've got a very early fix (I think), though moderators on StackOverflow were unpleasant enough to delete

Vincent, But is the second being ignored the right result? In many programming situations, subsequent assignments replace earlier ones. And consider the way R allows something like this: func(a=2, b=3, a=4, c=a*b) Is it clear how to initialize the default for c as it depends on one value of "a"

Re: [R-pkg-devel] R feature suggestion: Duplicated function arguments check

Thanks Duncan, I have tried to make a minimalistic example: myfun = function(...) { input = list(...) mysum = function(A = c(), B= c()) { return(A+B) } if ("A" %in% names(input) & "B" %in% names(input)) { print(mysum(A = input$A, B = input$B)) } } # test: > myfun(A = 1, B = 2, B

Re: [R-pkg-devel] R feature suggestion: Duplicated function arguments check

Duncan, This may not be the place to discuss this so I will be brief. The question is whether it should be some kind of error to call a function with two named arguments that are the same. I can think of a perhaps valid use when a function expects to take the first few arguments for personal use

It turns out that it is not difficult to find, the excerpt below is from help(setMethod). Maybe mentioning this in help(setGeneric) would be helpful, as well. Georgi Boshnakov === Method definitions can have default expressions for arguments, but only if the generic function must hav

Re: [R-pkg-devel] match.arg With S4 Methods and Missing Inputs

You need to define the generic with a default value for this parameter. Methods can then have a different default value for it. I remember reading this in S4's documentation but don't remember where. Georgi Boshnakov Get Outlook for Android _
