NIMBLE Options Settings

Description

Allow the user to set and examine a variety of global _options_ that affect the way in which NIMBLE operates. Call nimbleOptions() with no arguments to see a list of available opions.

Usage

nimbleOptions(...)

Arguments

...	any options to be defined as one or more name = value pairs or as a single list of name=value pairs.

Details

nimbleOptions mimics options. Invoking nimbleOptions() with no arguments returns a list with the current values of the options. To access the value of a single option, one should use getNimbleOption().

Value

When invoked with no arguments, returns a list with the current values of all options. When invoked with one or more arguments, returns a list of the the updated options with their updated values.

Examples

# Set one option:
nimbleOptions(verifyConjugatePosteriors = FALSE)

# Compactly print all options:
str(nimbleOptions(), max.level = 1)

# Save-and-restore options:
old <- nimbleOptions()                    # Saves old options.
nimbleOptions(showCompilerOutput = TRUE,
              verboseErrors = TRUE)       # Sets temporary options.
# ...do stuff...
nimbleOptions(old)                        # Restores old options.
