register_extendr: Register the extendr module of a package with R

In rextendr: Build 'Rust' Powered 'R' Packages

Register the extendr module of a package with R

Description

This function is deprecated because we now rely on a small Rust binary to generate wrappers, which is called during the package build process.

Usage

register_extendr(path = ".", quiet = FALSE, force = FALSE, compile = NA)

Arguments

path	Path from which package root is looked up.
quiet	Logical indicating whether any progress messages should be generated or not.
force	Logical indicating whether to force regenerating R/extendr-wrappers.R even when it doesn't seem to need updated. (By default, generation is skipped when it's newer than the DLL).
compile	Logical indicating whether to recompile DLLs: TRUE always recompiles NA recompiles if needed (i.e., any source files or manifest file are newer than the DLL) FALSE never recompiles

Value

(Invisibly) Path to the file containing generated wrappers.
