ello, I have added some functions to read binary files in my asteRisk package. The binary files that are read contain just arrays of coefficients and metadata about these.
I would like to provide a small file of these to be used in the examples of the man page for the functions that read them. However, section 1.1 of "Writing R Extensions” states that no binary files are accepted in submissions to CRAN (https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-exts.html) I was wondering if it would be acceptable to download the example file to a temporary file in the example themselves (and in fact, also in unit tests), and then read it from there? I could not find any statement against this in “Writing R Extensions”, but I would like to confirm that this is OK to do before submitting an updated version of the package to CRAN. Thanks a lot in advance Best wishes, Rafa [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel
