Hi everyone! I meet one problem when embedding R in C code, when I run the the R code in one child thread , it always print error info: Error: C stack usage is too close to the limit I also try to set R_CStackLimit = (uintptr_t)-1 to disable the C stack check as the R-ext doc say, but it still does not work. it is interesting that if i put the R code in the main thread(don't create any thread), it work. so, can anybody give some help or suggestion about this problem, any response will be appreciated, tks in advance. *********************** Bin Dong BUAA, Beijing PR China goon83@126.com *********************** ps: my code, system info and error information list behand ----------------------------- 1, my example code lists here: ----------------------------- #include .... void *ts_thread(){ SEXP e, tmp; int hadError; int argc = 0; char *argv[1]; ParseStatus status; init_R(argc, argv); PROTECT(tmp = mkString("{print(lh)}")); PROTECT(e = R_ParseVector(tmp, 1, &status, R_NilValue)); PrintValue(e); R_tryEval(VECTOR_ELT(e,0), R_GlobalEnv, &hadError); UNPROTECT(2); end_R(); } int main(int argc, char *argv[]){ pthread_t th1; int iret1; iret1 = pthread_create(&th1, NULL, ts_thread,NULL); pthread_join(th1, NULL); printf("Thread 1 return:%d\n", iret1); return 0; } ----------------------------------- 2, My os and compiler is: ----------------------------------- Linux debian 2.6.26-1-686 #1 SMP Sat Jan 10 18:29:31 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux gcc version 4.3.2 (Debian 4.3.2-1.1) ----------------------------------- 3, the error info: ------------------------------------ goon@debian:~/library/R-source/R-2.9.0/tests/Embedding$ ./Rar Error: C stack usage is too close to the limit Error: C stack usage is too close to the limit R version 2.7.1 (2008-06-23) Copyright (C) 2008 The R Foundation for Statistical Computing ISBN 3-900051-07-0 R is free software and comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.
