[Rd] Rgui crash when >1 figure plotted to single wmf file (PR#7821)
Hi,
R for Windows crashes where more than one plot is plotted to a windows
metafile where an integer format is not included in the character
string (i.e. when attempting to write more than one plot to the same
file).
win.metafile("tmp.wmf")
plot(1:10)
plot(1:10)
The following dialogues then come up:
Unable to create metafile
Program Error: Rgui.exe has generated errors and will be closed by
Windows. You will need to restart the program. An error log is being
created.
And R closes. (This happens with both Rgui and Rterm).
As well as this current box, this crash also occurs on my Windows 98
box (R 2.1.0), and R 2.0.0 on Windows 2000.
This problem does not seem to happen for other graphics file devices
(png, bmp, jpeg).
R also does not crash when writing a metafile to the clipboard (where
filename is ""):> win.metafile()
> plot(1:10)
> plot(1:10)
Error in plot.new() : A clipboard metafile can store only one figure.
The DrWatson error log contains a stack trace from the crash; not sure
if this is any use:
