link_again: Relink the OpenBLAS library with R

Description

The link_again function relinks the OpenBLAS library with the R language, which is useful for correcting unlinking problems that are common when the operating system is updated.

Usage

link_again(restart_r = TRUE)

Arguments

restart_r

If TRUE (default), a new R session is started after linking the OpenBLAS library.

Details

The link_again function can relink the R language with the OpenBLAS library. Thus, link_again will only perform the relinking when the ropenblas function has been used in a previous R session for the initial binding of the R language with the OpenBLAS library.

Relinking is useful in situations of operating system updates. In some updates, it is possible that the OpenBLAS library compiled in the /opt directory gets unlinked. In this scenario, when the OpenBLAS library has already been compiled using the ropenblas function, the link_again function performs a new link without the need to recompile, thus making the process less time consuming.
