R package should not contain binary executable files - How to solve the problem? #3

Open Shicheng-Guo opened 3 years ago

Shicheng-Guo commented 3 years ago

A source package if possible should not contain binary executable files: they are not portable, and a security risk if they are of the appropriate architecture. R CMD check will warn about them4 unless they are listed (one filepath per line) in a file BinaryFiles at the top level of the package. Note that CRAN will not accept submissions containing binary files even if they are listed.

bad new to integrate with: Plink, samtools, bedtools, GTAK, vcftools, bcftools

Checking for executable files. You must not have executable files in your package: they’re not portable, they’re not open source, and they are a security risk. Delete any executable files from your package. (If you’re not submitting to CRAN, you can silence this warning by listing each executable file in the BinaryFiles field in your DESCRIPTION.)
