[R-pkg-devel] problems with .mod files

Dear Remi,

The mod files are not in the src folder or in the tarball I submit to
CRAN, but I still get warnings that there are created. I have tried to
clean them by specifying this in the makefile, but then I get other
issues.

Try to add the following line in .Rbuildignore (if this file does not

exist, create it in the main directory of your package):

^.*\.mod

This will prevent R from including any *.mod files when building your

package.

I hope this is helpful.

Best,

Remi

Hello,

I have been trying for weeks to get a package on CRAN, but keep
receiving warnings and notes, and errors using R-hub. The problems
started when I used FORTRAN code to speed up some functions. This
FORTRAN code introduces .mod files which are not accepted in the src
folder. I followed suggestions by Avraham Adler to clean the src

folder

from this file by introducing a makefile with a clean command in it,

but

then I get other errors, and above all, recently this solution did

not

seem to remove the .mod file on some systems, as I still got the

warning

that this file was found in the src folder (but not on my machine!).

So my question is: how do I prevent the creation of .mod files

during

compilation of the FORTRAN code, or how do I tell R that these files

are

OK in the src folder?

Regards,

Rampal Etienne
