Examples


saveDest <- paste0(tempfile('debug'),'.RDS')
f <- function(i) { (1:10)[[i]] }
df <- DebugFnWE(saveDest, f)
# correct run
df(5)
# now re-run
# capture error on incorrect run
tryCatch(
   df(12),
   error = function(e) { print(e) })
# examine details
situation <- readRDS(saveDest)
str(situation)
# fix and re-run
situation$args[[1]] <- 6
do.call(situation$fn, situation$args, envir=situation$env)
# clean up
file.remove(saveDest)
