I'm trying to install the rdatamarket package. I did an install.packages('rdatamarket') command but got an error about half way through the install as follows: * installing *source* package ?RCurl? ... checking for curl-config... no Cannot find curl-config ERROR: configuration failed for package ?RCurl? The install continued after the error but looks like it was completed. I'm

I did an update of both rstudio and my packages. I had some trouble but was able to move a lot of the packages so most troubles seem to be behind me. But having a problem with code that previously ran fine. See below: require(quantmod) Loading required package: quantmod Loading required package: Defaults Loading required package: xts Loading required package: zoo Attaching package: ?zoo? The

On starting an R session, I get the messages: Fatal errir: unable to restore save data in .RData Error in fun(...): couldn't find function "assignInNamespace" Error: .onLoad failed in 'loadNamespace' for 'Matrix' The only object in my .RData is last.warning, thus: > last.warning $"optim or nlminb returned message false convergence (8)"

A coworker got tired of having to type 'yes' or 'no' after quitting R: he never wanted to save the R workspace when quitting. So he added assignInNamespace lines to his .Rprofile file to replace base::q with one that, by default, called the original with save="no".. utils::assignInNamespace(".qOrig", base::q, "base")

I am trying to get a function written in R that calls a cascade of functions from the graphics package, and I want to eventually call replacements to functions in the graphics package instead of the originals. Specifically, I have a function that calls qqnorm in stats, which calls qqnorm.default in stats, which calls plot in graphics, which calls plot.default and plot.new, and I want my own

In my .Rprofile for Windows, I had the following functions defined to mirror a few features I miss from linux: (a) replace setwd() with a version that stashes the current directory so it can be easily restored (b) writes a short version of the current R directory to the Windows title bar: I can always see where I am, with multiple Rgui windows. (c) creates a cd() shorthand for setwd(), but

With a pretty recent version of R 2.11.0 (devel,unstable, svn 50178) on Linux I could not install version 1.5-8 of zoo (the current on on CRAN): % R-devel CMD INSTALL -l Rlib3 zoo * installing *source* package 'zoo' ... ** R ** inst ** preparing package for lazy loading ** help *** installing help indices converting help for package 'zoo' finding

Hello, assignInNamespace refuses to assign an object to a name that is not already used in the namespace. Something like this would make it possible: --- src/library/utils/R/objects.R (revision 56024) +++ src/library/utils/R/objects.R (working copy) @@ -252,8 +252,9 @@ stop("environment specified is not a package") ns <- asNamespace(substring(nm, 9L))

[Env: Win XP, R 2.14.2, R 2.15.0] I have a replacement function for setwd() in my .Rprofile which displays the current R path in the R window title. It no longer works in R 2.15.x, giving the error below. Worse, the error prevents the rest of my .Rprofile script from completing. Is there some way to rescue this, i.e., preserve this behavior in R 2.15? If not, how can I modify my script so it

Hello - I'm currently maintaining an R package that uses a name space, and am also starting a new R package that will use a name space. According the the R News June 2003 issue, "Adding a name space to a package may complicate debugging code ... it is a good idea not to add a name space to a package until it is completely debugged, and to remove the name space if further debugging

Brian Ripley recently replied to a comment of mine by referring to a function 'assignInNamespace', which I had not heard of. Is there a good write up on name spaces in R? There are little tidbits in the manuals on the R site, but I found nothing substative. I'd like to understand these better. Terry Therneau

for the moment, I'm using: .onAttach <- function(libname, pkgname) { .bbg.db.conn <<- dbConnect(dbDriver("PostgreSQL"), user="blah","blah") } .onUnload <- function(libpath) { dbDisconnect(.bbg.db.conn) } which results in a hidden global variable in the global environment. I would prefer to make the assignment only in the package namespace.

I started my laptop, opened a shell and get this error message: R : Copyright 2005, The R Foundation for Statistical Computing Version 2.2.1 (2005-12-20 r36812) ISBN 3-900051-07-0 lines deleted Error in fun(...) : couldn't find function "assignInNamespace" Error: .onLoad failed in 'loadNamespace' for 'Matrix' Fatal error: unable to restore saved data in .RData

In my .Rprofile I have the following functions which display the current directory in the main R window title bar, and modify base::setwd() to keep this up to date. I like this because I can always tell where I am in the file system. cd <- function(dir) { base::setwd(dir) utils::setWindowTitle( short.path(base::getwd()) ) } short.path <- function(dir, len=2) { np

Hi all, This summer I've been working with a grad student to bring more of the date time classes from JODA (http://joda-time.sourceforge.net/) into R. To make these work seamlessly with existing date time objects, we need to patch +.POSIXt. (The ruby community uses the term monkey-patching for this sort of ill-advised, by sometimes necessary, internal hackery, hence the title.) The problem is

Hola a toda la comunidad R, el siguiente problema tengo para hacer funcionar el paquete Spatstat. Tengo instalado R version 2.15.0, y Ubuntu 12.04 los cuales ya lo actualice.

The problem is not specific to redefining the q function, but to the interaction of assignInNamespace and setGeneric. The latter requires, roughtly, that the environment of the function being replaced by an S4 generic is (or is the descendent of) the environment in which it lives. E.g., the following demonstrates the problem % R --quiet --vanilla > assignInNamespace("plot",
