Dear R-developers, I apologize if this issue has been already resolved, I could not find any solution in your archives. I recently submitted a package to CRAN. In the "src/Makevars" file I put CXX_STD = CXX11 to specify C++11 code. This causes my package to fail the automatic checks, which raise the following note: *"checking C++ specification ... NOTE* * Specified C++11: please drop specification unless essential"* Specifying C++11 is necessary to make my package work. How can I solve this?
You could change the code so it will work in newer standards, but if that is not feasible, you need to write to CRAN and explain why you need this older standard. Duncan Murdoch
