[R-pkg-devel] Reviving IndependenceTests and LAPACK WARNINGs
? Fri, 19 Sep 2025 06:36:12 +0000 Pierre Lafaye de Micheaux via R-package-devel <r-package-devel at r-project.org> ?????:
I was able to resolve most of the issues, but I still have 2 WARNINGs
and 1 NOTE, such as:
Warning: GNU Extension: Nonstandard type declaration COMPLEX*16
These only happen on Win-Builder due to extra checks being enabled there using the _R_CHECK_WALL_FORTRAN_=TRUE environment variable; normally R CMD check ignores the warnings about COMPLEX*16 or DOUBLE COMPLEX, including during CRAN submission checks. See, for example, a recent upload of the 'QZ' package: the compiler warnings are present [1], but the check status is OK [2]. WRE 1.6.5 expresses a weak preference for DOUBLE COMPLEX over COMPLEX*16. If you're willing to make the old Fortran code closer to Fortran 90 instead of Fortran 77 with extensions, replacing COMPLEX*16 with COMPLEX(KIND(0.0D0)) (and removing 10 spaces to the right to avoid hitting the line length limit) seems to work too. The C++ code at https://github.com/lafaye/IndependenceTests has a couple of more serious problems: * The 'new[]' allocation at src/cubature1.cpp:429 is freed using 'delete' instead of 'delete[]' at src/cubature1.cpp:462, which crashes the process for me. * The allocation at src/dependogram.cpp:635 seems to be leaked. Hopefully the July 12 version of the package no longer contains them.
