We have helper functions for int64_t vectors in a few places outside of Rcpp. It would probably be nice to bring some of that into Rcpp itself. Ideally without a...
The `XPtr` class wraps somewhat narrowly around R's own external pointers. The class actually has three fields: the pointer, a tag and a protect field. [WRE, Section 5.13.1](https://rstudio.github.io/r-manuals/r-exts/System-and-foreign-language-interfaces.html#an-example) has an...
@cderv tweeted  so may need to update here too.
The [`tufte-book`](https://tufte-latex.github.io/tufte-latex/) class made the `tintBook` pdf variant possible. There is nothing (yet) for html that is really comparable. The `gitbook` default for [`bookdown`](https://tufte-latex.github.io/tufte-latex/) has a [tufte variant](https://bookdown.org/yihui/bookdown-demo3/) but I...
The URL given as source https://github.com/tidyverse/nycflights13/blob/1273c4e8fdce96039748f02285bcedb4fd325f85/R/flights.R#L6-L7 leads to an error page at transtats.bts.gov as it appears to have moved.
The once-dominant Travis service switched to a subscription-only/mostly model. Many open source project have switched to alternatives, notable GitHub Actions. While updating my repositories I noticed that this one (which...
Issue https://github.com/RcppCore/RcppArmadillo/issues/263, opened quite some time ago by @coatless, demonstrated that we had a bug stacked away in dealing with a field exporter which dropped a dimension. I worked a...
The CRAN maintainers, who tend to be very proactive with new compiler builds, alerted me that my [RcppROML](https://github.com/eddelbuettel/rcpptoml) package was failing builds under `g++-11`, and hinted that the change was...
CRAN emailed me as they noticed that the (old) example in `help(SabrSwaption)` now fails: ```c > setEvaluationDate(as.Date("2016-2-16")) [1] TRUE > times data(tsQuotes) > dcurve DiscountCurve.default -> discountCurveEngine Execution halted ```...
This would allow to get rid of the rgl and shiny Suggests which pull in a metric ton of dependencies.
