This is an environment like <package:pkg>. The package environment contains the exported objects from a package. It is attached, so it is an ancestor of R_GlobalEnv.

Usage

pkg_env(package)

Arguments

package

package name.

Details

When a package is loaded the normal way, using library(), this environment contains only the exported objects from the namespace. However, when loaded with load_all(), this environment will contain all the objects from the namespace, unless load_all is used with export_all=FALSE.

If the package is not attached, this function returns NULL.
