[Rd] Parametrized Vignettest in R packages

Dear Duncan,
Following your advice (Thank you for it) I did include into the vignettes
params:
configuration: !r get(data(sample_analysis))
data: !r get(data(skylineconfig))
And everything seemed (see below) to work fine.
devtools::build_vignettes() builds the vignettes.
Runs with NO error. By this the .Rmd file, html file and corresponding
.R files is being placed into the inst/doc directory.
However, when I did want to check the package by running
devtools::check(build_args="--no-build-vignettes")
The following warning is shown:
Warning: parse error in file
'C:/Users/wolski/AppData/Local/Temp/Rtmp4QanHv/SRMService.Rcheck/SRMService/doc/tr_srm_summary.R':
/Users/wolski/AppData/Local/Temp/Rtmp4QanHv/SRMService.Rcheck/SRMService/doc/tr_srm_summary.R:2:22:
unexpected '<'
1: params <-
2: list(configuration = <
This is how the start of the .R file produced from the vignette looks like.
params <-
list(configuration = <environment>, data = structure(list(protein_Id =
c("CiRT standards",
I am worried that this is the end of this road with parameterized
vignettes then? What do you think?
regards
Witek
