[Rcpp-devel] Rcpp version of DATAPTR

[Whit Armstrong]

Thanks, Dirk.

one more quick q.

Should I be doing something to prevent these warnings:

/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/RcppArmadillo/include/RcppArmadilloConfig.h:64:0:
warning: "ARMA_DEFAULT_OSTREAM" redefined [enabled by default]
/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/RcppArmadillo/include/armadillo_bits/config.hpp:73:0:
note: this is the location of the previous definition

Or is this the intended effect of remapping std::cout to Rout?

I'm just wondering if Kurt H and the rest of CRAN at R-project.org will
view those warnings as blockers for package submission?
