[R-pkg-devel] checking re-building of vignette outputs ... ERROR

Hello all,

I invested quite some time to create vignette for my r package dendroTools
<https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/dendroTools/index.html>. It takes
around 30 – 40 minutes to build this vignette, therefore I get an error on
winbuilder.



win-builder.r-project.org

…

* checking re-building of vignette outputs ... ERROR

Check process probably crashed or hung up for 20 minutes ... killed

Most likely this happened in the example checks (?),

if not, ignore the following last lines of example output:



The core function *daily_response()* runs through daily environmental data
and calculates averages of different ranges and afterwards compares this
average with some dependent variable and returns some linear / nonlinear
metric. By default, it is computationally intensive, and it is meant to be
so.

So, is there a way to get around this error and still publish my package on
CRAN? Could I build my vignette on my computer and include it as pdf /
html? So, it would not need to get built on CRAN machines?



Jerry
