compiling issues with devtools::document()

[JoshSchramm94]

I am currently building an R package relying on rstan (you can find it here). I cloned it with a new device and wanted to work on it from a new machine. For some reason, when I now call devtools::document() it starts to recompile all stan models (what it usually does not do) and aborts the documentation process. Also when I use the install function under the build tab it also aborts the installation process. I get warnings such as C:/Users/AppData/Local/R/win-library/4.5/BH/include/boost/math/quadrature/detail/exp_sinh_detail.hpp:498:7: warning: non-standard suffix on floating constant [-Wpedantic] or C:/Users/AppData/Local/R/win-library/4.5/RcppEigen/include/Eigen/src/Core/DenseCoeffsBase.h:302:7: required from ‘class Eigen::DenseCoeffsBase<Eigen::Matrix<double, 4, 1>, 1>. I have no clue why and I can also find no references discussing this issue. I am happy for any help regarding this issue.

devtools::document() is a thin wrapper around roxygen2::roxygenise():

devtools/R/document.R

Line 13 in 5a10248

document <- function(pkg = ".", roclets = NULL, quiet = FALSE) {

What happens when you call roxygen2::roxygenise() directly?

I'd also recommend that you do one complete cycle of building the package with pure base R tooling. Given that you're on a new machine, I think that's going to give lots of information to distinguish between gaps or changes in the setup that affect any package development for you vs. issues that are specific to devtools and adjacent packages.

Hi Jenny, thanks a lot for your help. I think it was due to some development compiling flags. When I set these to false, devtools::document() was working without issues. So thanks for your advice.
