RE: [R] error preparing a package for lazy loading with R CMD
I have just tried adding a newline at the end of each file. Unsuccessfully.
Lazy loading is still not accepted and the library can be compiled only
with the "LazyLoad: no" option in the description file.
Thanks anyway,
Patrick

RE: [R] error preparing a package for lazy loading with R CMD
That's the way John Fox advised to turn the problem. Indeed it works but
doe snot explain this bug in lazy loading. I don't think that it may come
for a syntax error somewhere. All the functions have been checked and the
problem does not occur if any of the 35 functions is removed. Something
happens when I add another function to the 34 already present. Strange.

RE: [R] error preparing a package for lazy loading with R CMD
Not sure if this will help, but have you tried loading the package after
install with no lazyload? I've found that if there are syntax errors in
the R source, that can give the problem you described. Just a guess.
