Hi, I have been playing with Qt recently, and have the beginnings of a Qt device. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to make it work as an R package yet (I know the device code works because I can use it from a GUI where R is embedded). Trying to package it, I have managed to get it to a stage where typing> library(qtdevice) > QT()will open up a new window, but then control doesn't return to R, so nothing useful can be done. Right now, I have no idea how to proceed. Would someone with enough experience with event loops (preferably in both R and Qt) be willing to look into this? The source code and a brief write-up is available here: dsarkar.fhcrc.org/R/R-Qt.html Thanks, -Deepayan
Hi Deepayan. I can take a look, but it may not be for a few days. But if anyone else has the time, can you keep us informed about any progress so that we don't replicate work in parallel. D.
