Subject: [Rcpp-devel] Rcpp: accessing non exported function in a given namespace
Hi,
I am using Rcpp in a package and I need to get a non exported function
in some other namespace.
I do something like the following but it seems to work only for exported
functions (or I guess any R variables):
Environment ns = Environment("package:stats");
Function fun = ns[".asSparse"];
This throws an error: "cannot convert to function".
I am running:
- R-2.13.0 on Ubuntu 10.04
- Rcpp 0.9.5
Actually, I would like to access any type of non-exported R variable,
but I imagine it would work the same and changing the left-side class
should do the trick.
I am sure there is an easy way to do this in Rcpp. Any suggestion?
Thank you.
Bests,
Renaud
