R help - Jun 2008 - Access violation when calling Front41

Hello! When I tried to call Front41 in R, I met some problem. After I
entered: system ('front41.exe'),  an error occured :

"jwe0019i-u The program was terminated abnormally with Exception Code
EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION.
error summary (Fortran)
error number  error level  error count
  jwe0019i         u           1
total error count = 1

FRONTIER - Version 4.1c
***********************
"
How can i deal with it?

Hi Siyi!

My answer is late but I hope that it is not too late.

Unfortunately, I don't know the reason for the error message.

I suggest that you use the new R package "frontier"  that is available
on CRAN
[1] and R-Forge [2]. It includes the FORTRAN code of Tim Coelli's 
software "Frontier 4.1" (front41.exe). Hence, the R package
"frontier" should
have the same capabilities as "Frontier 4.1".

Best wishes,
Arne
