Rblpapi overrides setting is unused argument in bds

I am trying to use the Rblpapi package, and am able to pull data and connect to the api easily. However when using overrides I encounter this error everytime.

overrd <- c("START_DT" = "20150101", "END_DT" = "20160101")

bds("CPI YOY Index", "ECO_RELEASE_DT_LIST", overrides = overrd)

Error in bds("CPI YOY Index", "ECO_RELEASE_DT_LIST", overrides = overrd) :

unused argument (overrides = overrd)

Has anyone encountered this error? Do you know what the fix is?

FWIW: When I pasted your code into my R terminal, it worked:

> overrd <- c("START_DT"="20150101", "END_DT"="20160101")

bds("CPI YOY Index","ECO_RELEASE_DT_LIST", overrides = overrd)
