cpp11 allows some somewhat scary implicit conversions between
sexp
and the 3 typesbool
,size_t
, anddouble
. These are unchecked conversions, and we'd like to remove them:r-lib/cpp11#390
The recommended way is to use
cpp11::as_cpp<bool>()
, which checks the type and length before performing the conversion.I'm not going to remove these in this version of cpp11, but we will in the next
