Hi Tomas thanks for the explanation. Does that mean that there is no known
fix? i.e. it is OK to re-submit a new version of my package without fixing
these WARNINGS?

One way to fix would be to remove non-ASCII characters from the examples.
I see \u4e8c \u4e09 \U0001F60E.

Hi all,

is there a known fix for this WARNING which I am getting on solaris for

my

newly submitted nc package?

https://www.r-project.org/nosvn/R.check/r-patched-solaris-x86/nc-00check.html

It seems that deparse() came across some non-printable characters. Such
characters would be replaced by \U or \u escapes. This is implemented
using wide characters in R, but on that platform __STDC_ISO_10646__ is
not defined, so wchar_t has unknown representation (not known to be
Unicode), hence the warning.

Best
Tomas

A quick google search for "it is not known that wchar_t is Unicode on

this

platform cran" shows that many other packages have this WARNING as well.

I searched r-devel and r-pkg-devel for the warning text but I did not

find

any messages discussing a fix.

Thanks for any help
Toby
