Description

Usage

1

Arguments

x

logical(1) to specify whether or not original old code should be used in corresponding functions. If not provided the function simply returns the value of the global option.

Details

The functions/methods that are affected by this option are:

Value

logical(1) indicating whether old code is being used.

Note

For parallel processing using the SOCKS method (e.g. by SnowParam() on Windows computers) this option might not be passed to the individual R processes performing the calculations. In such cases it is suggested to specify the option manually and system-wide by adding the line options(XCMSuseOriginalCode = TRUE) in a file called .Rprofile in the folder in which new R processes are started (usually the user's home directory; to ensure that the option is correctly read add a new line to the file too). See also Startup from the base R documentation on how to specify system-wide options for R.

Usage of old code is strongly dicouraged. This function is thought to be used mainly in the transition phase from xcms to xcms version 3.
