‘:::’ call
Paul, this was discussed at length only a couple of days ago. See this thread: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.r.devel/34100 If I follow you, I think a change has been made that doesn't NOTE if the use of `:::` is to packages for which you are also the maintainer. But read the thread as the change is mentioned in there somewhere. HTH G

I have a package (TSdbi) which provides end user functions that I export, and several utilities for plugin packages (e.g. TSMySQL) that I do not export because I do not intend them to be exposed to end users. I call these from the plugin packages using TSdbi::: but that now produces a note in the checks: * checking dependencies in R code ... NOTE Namespace imported from by a ?:::? call: ?TSdbi? See the note in ?`:::` about the use of this operator. :: should be used rather than ::: if the function is exported, and a package almost never needs to use ::: for its own functions. Is there a preferred method to accomplish this in a way that does not produce a note? Thanks, Paul
