I would like to the use the ‘ByteCompile’ field in R 2.14. However,
“Writing R Extensions” only describes this field, but does not say
what value it should be set to. How should i use it? Do you have
examples?
Is it the same as “LazyData: yes”?
I also asked this question on the r-devel mailinglist.
It’s a boolean value. Set it to
TRUEorFALSE. If you do not specify it in the DESCRIPTION file then it defaults toFALSE. For convenience you could alternatively useyesornofor these boolean fields.Note that I too could find no documentation for this, or perhaps did not know how to interpret the documentation. I worked it out from the source.
