record() doesn't honor options(warn) setting #66

Closed gothub closed 7 years ago

gothub commented 7 years ago

R option warn < 2 will allow a sourced script to run completely even if a warning is encountered in the script. When record() sources a user script, it does so in a tryCatch block (as required specifically of recordr by CRAN), which causes control to return from the record() source script immediately when any warning is encountered.

To resolve this, if warn is set to < 2, record() will source the user script with suppressWarnings() so that the script can complete even if a warning is encountered. If warn >=2, then the script is sourced without suppressWarnings() and warnings (treated as errors now) will cause the script.

The result is that running an R script directly with source() and with record() has the same error handling behaviour, whatever the user has set option(warn) to be.
