Yes. Even in the latest version of R, "R CMD build" will create a default NAMESPACE file like that for you if one does not exist. > Is it good practice to do that? No. The Writing R Extensions manual says "such broad patterns are not recommended for production code: it is better to list all exports or use narrowly-defined groups" > is .onLoad ... still required? Yes, if your package has compiled code (e.g. C, C++, Fortran) then the .onLoad function is required to load it into R.
