Hi! I'm working on a package that must convert data to and from JSON. For this, it can use either the rjson package, or preferably, the faster RJSONIO package.
I have two related questions about this. First, how can I specify that the package depends on *either* RJSONIO *or* rjson? (I.e. both are not required.) Second, what's the best-practice R idiom for such conditional loading? I.e. I'm looking for R's equivalent of Python's >>> try: ... import json ... except ImportError: ... import simplejson as json Thanks! kynn [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
