Subject: [R-pkg-devel] R checks, compiling C code and Windows ISO C warning
I?m trying to submit an R package to CRAN that contains C code and I cannot get past an issue with compiling on Windows. Specifically I have this line of C code, reading data in 64 bit:
> sscanf (hdrstr, " %"SCNd64, &datasize);
To me this seems like good and portable code. But CRAN checks on Windows give this warning:
> warning: ISO C does not support the 'I64' ms_scanf length modifier [-Wformat=]
The code as it is works fine on Windows, but I can?t find a way to get around this warning. Does anyone know of a better solution to read in 64 bit data?
Thanks,
