NOTICE: plan(multiprocess) of future is deprecated

[HenrikBengtsson]

Hi.

This is a friendly reminder that plan(multiprocess) of the future package is deprecated since future 1.20.0 (2020-11-03). It will eventually become defunct and removed. The background for this can be found in futureverse/future#420.

Your protti package relies on multiprocess, cf. https://github.com/jpquast/protti/search?q=multiprocess.

Please migrate your code to the platform-independent plan(multisession) or the Linux/macOS-specific plan(multicore). If you want to emulate what multiprocess does, you can do something like:

  if (parallelly::supportsMulticore()) {
    oplan <- plan(multicore)
  } else {
    oplan <- plan(multisession)
  }
  on.exit(plan(oplan))

BTW, if you don't already do so, please make sure to undo any plan() you set in your code, as illustrated by the above example. This is needed to guarantee that calling your code won't override settings that the user has set previously. You can read about this in https://future.futureverse.org/reference/plan.html#for-package-developers.

Thank you,

Henrik
(maintainer of the future package)
