[Rcpp-devel] Bug in Rcpp

[Dirk Eddelbuettel]

Hi Guo Ci,

Thanks for taking the time to write a bug report, and to suggest a fix -- we
appreciate it!

May I ask you to send such reports to the rcpp-devel list in the future?
I'll CC the list now.

That is entirely possibly. As explained before, we (as in the core Rcpp team)
don't much use that option as we cannot upload to CRAN that way.   I may find
more such error if I use the option in work-related code, to be seen.

Also, when you submit a report, could you state the version it was made
against?  This could well be fixed in SVN where a lot of files have been
rearranged by Romain making for much compilation times.  The corresponding
compiler-detection and settings are now in a file

    inst/include/Rcpp/platform/compiler.h 

and when I add the flag to CXXFLAGS in my ~/.R/Makevars it all passes
swimmingly without your patch:

That used current SVN source put together into a tarball.

Again, while this issue may already have been taken care of, thanks for the
suggestion which we appreciate.
