message
is used for generating ‘simple’ diagnostic
messages which are neither warnings nor errors, but nevertheless
represented as conditions. Unlike warnings and errors, a final
newline is regarded as part of the message, and is optional.
The default handler sends the message to the
stderr()
connection.
If a condition object is supplied to message
it should be
the only argument, and further arguments will be ignored, with a warning.
While the message is being processed, a muffleMessage
restart
is available.
suppressMessages
evaluates its expression in a context that
ignores all ‘simple’ diagnostic messages.
packageStartupMessage
is a variant whose messages can be
suppressed separately by suppressPackageStartupMessages
. (They
are still messages, so can be suppressed by suppressMessages
.)
.makeMessage
is a utility used by message
, warning
and stop
to generate a text message from the ...
arguments by possible translation (see gettext
) and
concatenation (with no separator).
warning
and stop
for generating warnings
and errors; conditions
for condition handling and
recovery.
gettext
for the mechanisms for the automated translation
of text.
message("ABC", "DEF") suppressMessages(message("ABC")) testit <- function() { message("testing package startup messages") packageStartupMessage("initializing ...", appendLF = FALSE) Sys.sleep(1) packageStartupMessage(" done") } testit() suppressPackageStartupMessages(testit()) suppressMessages(testit())
