Hello, I am encountering problems when there is a '%' character in package .Rd files. More precisely, CRAN is having problems with these characters when running check, whereas I am not seeing any problems under Linux and Windows. I did see these problems, and found that escaping the %'s fixes the problem in my testing, but apparently this does not fix the problem when check is run at

Dear all, After a bit of reading I came across the Rcpp example package. There are a few classes that I would like to use and I am not sure how best to include them in my own package. Is it best to compile it as an independent library and link to it? Or is there some way to `require` it for my own package? Re-write using the code as an example (unsure how best to do this at this moment, as

Hello, I wonder if anybody has encountered this problem? While MiKTeX/yap/Ghostscript seems to work fine on most TeX files that I have tested (including a great deal of postscript graphics), there is one file where the graphics works ok for all postscript files except one, the only one that is generated by R. I get an error "Some postscript specials could not be rendered", and the

Consider the R code: mat <- matrix(seq(1,20),4,5) is.matrix(mat) # gives TRUE is.vector(mat) # gives FALSE On the other hand, if mat is passed through the .Call interface the corresponding SEXP (call it smat) satisfies isMatrix(smat) // TRUE isVector(smat) // TRUE Consequently, you cannot distinguish matrices from vectors. Looking at the dim attribute of a vector doesn't help because

Building R 2.3.0 fails under Red Hat 9.0 because ssize_t is not defined in src/modules/internet/sock.h. Inserting #include <sys/types.h> at the top of this file fixes the problem.

Does R support demo names with spaces? I tried placing a file like "My Demo Name.R" in the demo subdirectory, and placing a line that begins with "My Demo Name" in 00Index, but R CMD check does not like this. It reads the line in 00Index as "My, and it doesn't think there is a 00Index entry for "My Demo Name". I have no problem going back to MyDemoName.R,

Hello, I just tried to use NAMESPACE to prevent name conflicts between packages and it appears that once a name is exported it will clash with the same name if it is exported from another package, in particular, if that other package does not use NAMESPACE. Is there a way to "export" a name so that the current package user can see it, but other packages cannot see it? My working

When I type ls("package:base", pattern="log*") functions with names like "floor" and "Sys.setlocale" are included. I don't think this is how "*" is supposed to work. To get the desired response I have to use: ls("packge:base", pattern="logg*") I thought "log*" means "log" followed by anything? Thanks

Hello, I submitted the package RcppTemplate to CRAN a couple of weeks ago but the Mac OS X binary has not appeared, and the person in charge of that process (Simon) suspects that the problem may be due to a "nested DESCRIPTION file" so that "Package:" becomes RcppTemplateRcppTemplate, or something like this. Can somebody explain what a nested DESCRIPTION file is so I can

Hello, I'm trying to fetch a data frame through the C API, and have no problem doing this when all columns are numbers, but when there is a column of strings I have a problem. On the C-side the function looks like: SEXP myfunc(SEXP df), and it is called with a dataframe from the R side with: .Call("myfunc", somedataframe) On the C side (actually C++ side) I use code like this:
