findBinaryInDirectory: Find a given binary in given directory.

In aydindemircioglu/SVMBridge: A Bridge to Integrate Different 'SVM' Solvers into R

Description

Given a file pattern and an std-out-pattern it will try to find a binary matching the file pattern (which contains std-out-pattern as output if called without arguments) in the path given.

Usage

findBinaryInDirectory(binaryName = NULL, dir = NULL, patterns = NULL,
  verbose = FALSE)

Arguments

binaryName	Search name for the SVM binary
dir	Search path for the SVM binary.
patterns	Pattern for output of the binary file
verbose	Print messages while searching?

Value

name of the found binary matching the pattern

Note

To make sure that the binary is correct, it will be executed! This happens only if this routine is given some pattterns.

If multiple binaries are found, the last one will be taken. Overwrite by hand, if necessary.
