...ks well (fast). I don't know if I have to free the memory or something. Here you have the code: R server: FSsocket <- function(){ continue = TRUE; while(continue){ conn <- try(socketConnection(server = TRUE, port = 7890, blocking = TRUE, open = "ab"), silent = FALSE); isOpened = !inherits(conn, "try-error"); isOpened = isOpened && isOpen(conn); while(!isOpened){ Sys.sleep(1); conn <- try(socketConnection(server = TRUE, port = 7890, blocking = TRUE, open = "ab"), silent = FALSE); isOpened = !inherits(conn, "try-error&qu...

As far as I can tell, 'isOpen' cannot return FALSE in the case when 'rw = ""'. If the connection has already been closed by 'close' or some other function, then isOpen will produce an error. The problem is that when isOpen calls 'getConnection', the connection cannot be found and 'getConnection' produces an error. The check to see if it is

Hello, >From the doc, it says: "isOpen returns a logical value, whether the connection is currently open." But actually it seems to die on closed connections: > con <- file() > isOpen(con) [1] TRUE > close(con) > isOpen(con) Error in isOpen(con) : invalid connection Is it expected ?

I noticed the following file descriptor leak when I couldn't remove a package unless I shut down the R session that had loaded and used it. The function that triggered the problem printed the output of a call to parse(). Each time one prints a srcref a connection is opened and not closed. It looks like it happens in as.character.srcref's call to getSrcLines, which has some logic I

Hi! I'm wondering if there's a smart way around this: fileName= (some valid file on your system) > fileCon=file(fileName, open="rt") > l<-readLines (fileCon, n= 1) > > isOpen(fileCon) [1] TRUE > close(fileCon) > isOpen(fileCon) Error in isOpen(fileCon) : invalid connection How do you test for a file being closed if isOpen gives you an error

Dear all, I do not completely understand following behaviour : > con <- file("test.txt") > isOpen(con) [1] FALSE > open(con) > isOpen(con) [1] TRUE > close(con) > isOpen(con) Error in isOpen(con) : invalid connection > str(con) Classes 'file', 'connection' atomic [1:1] 3 ..- attr(*, "conn_id")=<externalptr> Why do I get an

Yeah, that's often a possible workaround, but since this connection was opened by readLines() internally, I don't necessarily know which one it is. E.g. I might open multiple

Thought I'd try and start a discussion. Feel free to jump in. I guess R needs to strike the right balance between opening up the internals to package writers and not allowing them to do bad things. My first attempt at cracking this nut is to just memcpy() the Rconnection and not allow access to the private stuff: /* Alternative to allowing C code access to connection API. */ Rconnection

SUMMARY: I'm proposing that R assert that 'connection' options have not changed since first created such that R will produce the following error: > fh <- file("a.txt", open = "w+") > cat("hello\n", file = fh) > close(fh) > fh2 <- file("b.txt", open = "w+") > cat("world\n", file = fh2) >

Cran task views seems to be a "once-per-session" process -- the first attempt to access views in a (RGui for Windows) session works, but subsequent attempts fail. There is a noticeably long pause before the failing call returns. Example session with two calls to "available.views" follows, but similar effects have been observed with two calls to "install.views" and

Consider this code. This is R 3.4.2, but based on a quick look at the NEWS, this has not been fixed. tryCatch( readLines(tempfile(), warn = FALSE)[1], error = function(e) NA, warning = function(w) NA ) rm(list=ls(all.names = TRUE)) gc() showConnections(all = TRUE) If you run it, you'll get a connection you cannot close(), i.e. the last showConnections() call prints: ?

I'm been doing more and more of file text parsing inside R instead of coping with Perl. For that, I need open a file and read it line-by-line. I found the documentation for 'open' isn't very clear. Right now it has ,----[ *help(R)[open]* ] | 'open' opens a connection. In general functions using connections | will open them if they are not open, but then close them

This may be more of an OS question ... I have this call r = get.hist.quote(symbol, start= format(start, "%Y-%m-%d"), end= format(end, "%Y-%m-%d")) which does a url request in a loop and my program runs out of file handlers after few hundred rotations. The error message is: 'Too many open files'. Other than increasing the file handlers assigned to my process, is there

Using dup() before fdopen() (and calling fclose() on the connection when it is closed) indeed fixes the memory leak.

Hi all, I am trying to create a function that will open connections to all files of one type within the working directory. I've got the function to open the connections, but I am having a bugger of a time trying to get these connections named as objects in the workspace. I am at the point where I can do it outside of the function, but not inside, using assign. I'm sure I'm
