Hi Pratibha,
May I suggest to move this over to the rcpp-devel list (where you need to be
subscribed to post)? I am setting an appropriate Reply-To: now, we should
then also remove the CC for r-devel.

We could do with a try/catch logic here. You can either (easiest) wrap your
actual expression in a try() [ or tryCatch() ] and then submit the new
compound expression.
Or we tackle this at the C++ and add a try/catch layer in the member function
RInside::parseEval() --- which never had one as I started with the code from
littler which, being C, never had this type of exception handling.
I do not have to implement this, or try it, but if you get a chance I'd love
to hear how it goes.

| I think the buffer should be cleared after each call to parseEval
Other approaches may work too. What you suggest would just ignore the error
and carry on. That may work too, but there is something about this I don't
quite like...
Cheers, Dirk
