Arma version selection: Package with deprecation notes ready for C++14 or later#477

Description

As another example of a simple package that

  • neither depends on or enforces C++11 but simply uses the newest C++ standard available
  • but triggers two very simple deprecation warnings that are easily addressed (see below)

we show the CRAN package RcppSMC.

Example of default compilation before any changes: falls back to 14.6.3 with warning

We can make the simple two-line changes which, for this package, involve switching to arma::as_scalar() in two places. After that change, no warnings are seen.

We also note that the changes have no effect when building under the preceding RcppArmadillo release 14.6.3 as the #define is ignored, and the changed-to Armadillo function has been available for many releases (see e.g. GitHub actions for RcppSMC).

    This issue can now be closed. We will of course continue to support packages using RcppArmadillo and greatly appreciate the many packages that did change and update.
