[Rcpp-devel] rout and rerr instead of cout and cerr in Rcpp

| Hi,
| 
| Would it make sense to have an rout and rerr so that we could do :
| 
| rout << "bla bla" << endl ;
| 
| and
| 
| rerr << "bla bla" << endl ;
| 
| and this would go into Rprintf and REprintf ? or maybe we can directly 
| redefine cout and cerr

Hm. That never really arose in my use. cout was mostly for debugging. 

I think a C++-ish way is to create << operators (that eg RcppDate and
RcppDatetime have).  

Where you thinking of something other than debugging help?

Three out of two people have difficulties with fractions.

Not really, but just sort of making sure debugging is consistent with 
the recommendation from WRE of using Rprintf instead of printf
