Is it intentional that \Sexpr is not allowed at the top level? The Rd
grammar allows this, but R CMD check does not.
Is there any other way to generate/modify the \examples{} section dynamically?
That looks like a bug in the check code, but wouldn't it be possible to
work around it with something like this?
\examples{
\Sexpr[stage=install,strip.white=FALSE,results=rd]{pkg:::decorate_code('
CODE
')}
}
Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately it seems that \Sexpr is not allowed inside
\examples, either:
checkRd: (7) ps_handle.Rd:46-47: Tag \Sexpr is invalid in a \examples block
G.
I think I found the bug. The tools::checkRd function only processes
\Sexpr's with "stage=render". I think the author (who might have been
me, I forget) assumed that would imply all the earlier stages as well,
but apparently it doesn't.
So you could use that as a workaround.
I'll do some more checking, then submit a bug report and patch to Bugzilla.
