[R-pkg-devel] Travis/appveyor with CXX14/17
I bumped a package to CXX14/17 and it failed on Travis/Appveyor while checking fine locally. I assume I need to request different compilers or something like that. Anyone have a quick recipe for that? THK [[alternative HTML version deleted]] __ R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel
