View source: R/RcppExports.R

Description

Updates all of the parameters using a single Metropolis-Hastings step, such that the baseline cancels out in the MH ratio, using the marginalisation identity of Chib (1995). If npart > 1, then multiple MCMC chains will be executed independently in parallel using OpenMP. This means that all functions used for the proposal distributions and to evaluate the MH ratio need to be thread-safe. Specifically, no calls to R::rnorm, R::dnorm, nor their Rcpp equivalents, can be made from within the parallel portion of the code.
