A warning of "HAVE_UINTPTR_T redefined" occured when my ubuntu updated some r-cran packages. Does this warning matters? Could somebody explain this macro? I also found it in some python header.

In file included from /usr/local/include/RInside/RInside.h:26:0,
/usr/local/include/RInside/RInsideCommon.h:50:0: warning: "HAVE_UINTPTR_T" redefined [enabled by default]
   #define HAVE_UINTPTR_T

             from /usr/local/include/RInside/RInside.h:26,

/usr/share/R/include/Rconfig.h:23:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition
 #define HAVE_UINTPTR_T 1

  • As it stands, this is not reproducible or answerable. _What_ were you compiling? Maybe changing the order of header file includes helps? – Dirk Eddelbuettel Apr 27 '17 at 14:22
  • I only include the header "RInside.h" in several impl cpp source files. so there isn't R.h header to be reordered with. I doubt the version of rcpp and newly updated headers within package r-base-dev are not compatible. Till now the executable works fine as before. – ZFY Apr 28 '17 at 01:21

    Oh, I see now. It is merely a warning though. And I build (or test) lots of CRAN packages -- one warning is pretty calm. But I will look into suppressing this. Next time please report at GitHub though. – Dirk Eddelbuettel Apr 28 '17 at 01:27

That was indeed a new warning with R 3.4.0, but it is now suppressed following this commit to the master branch:

  • Yes :) I actually tested it, believe it or not, and even showed the output here. Thanks for the heads-up. And I should probably get a new release out ... – Dirk Eddelbuettel Apr 28 '17 at 02:39
