Description

This object controls how to load cached environments from languages other than R (when the chunk option engine is not 'R'). Each component in this object is a function that takes the current path to the chunk cache and loads it into the language environment.

Usage

Format

An object of class list of length 6.

Details

The cache engine function has one argument options, a list containing all chunk options. Note that options$hash is the path to the current chunk cache with the chunk's hash, but without any file extension, and the language engine may write a cache database to this path (with an extension).

The cache engine function should load the cache environment and should know the extension appropriate for the language.
