Hi All, I'm still actively researching this problem (reading R-ext manual), but I hoped that I might be able to get some additional insight from the list given that I'm fairly new at writing R extension code. Problem: I have some fairly simple code (.Call interface) that makes a call to another shared library, which, in turn, calls routines in an HDF5 shared library. The good news

Hello R-List I've run into a minor problem with ggplot2. In particular, I get an error message when trying to plot a horizonal line through zero. Here is what I do: plt.df <- subset(xfm.df, select=c(stage, subj, tX)) plt <- ggplot(pp.df, aes(x=stage, y=tX, group=subj)) + geom_line() plt plt <- plt + geom_hline(intercept=0) plt The first plot yields a most lovely graph.

Hi, I'm investigating converting some S4 classes to reference classes and have a question about inheritance. The primary data structure for the original S4 class is a 3-d array. Using the "contains" parameter when defining the class permits me to inherit all of the array-related methods. Of particular utility for me is the ability to access the array via [] indexing. It all works

Hello R-List, ** This e-mail was initially bounced. Please forgive any duplicates.** I'm creating a new generic function and 3 associated methods, in which each of the methods only needs a subset of the arguments specified in the generic. So, I create the generic like so (with the signature defaulting to all of the args) ... setGeneric( name="myFunction", def =

I observed the following: match.arg("white", colors()) yields 'white', but match.arg("whit", colors()) yields: `Error in match.arg("whit", colors()) : 'arg' should be one of "white", "aliceblue", '... this message actually comes from `pmatch'. using a suitable subset of `colors()' works OK. the precise length

I get the error Error : evaluation nested too deeply: infinite recursion / options(expressions=)? during a 'R CMD check ...' on one of my packages. The reason seems to be that this package is mutually dependent on another one (i.e. the DESCRIPTION files of package A lists package B under "Depends" and vice versa). this might be bad design (having bits in both packages needed

The documentation for the OutDec option says that it should be a 'one-character string'; yet, if I try a unicode character, it doesn't seem to work. Are unicode chars not counted as one-character? This is within the mac GUI, but I also see this on linux boxes. > x <- '\u00B7' > nchar(x) [1] 1 > options(OutDec=x) Error in options(OutDec = x) : invalid value for

here appears to be a bug in the foreign library.

I posted previously about problems with X11() on my MAC using R 2.8.1 .

I've got read.table to successfully read in my table of three columns. Most of the time I will have a set number of rows, but sometime that will be variable and sometimes there will be only be two variables in one row, e.g. Time Loc1 Loc2 1 22.33 44.55 2 66.77 88.99 3 222.33344.55 4 66.77 88.99 Is there any way to have read.table handle (1) a variable number of rows, and (2) sometime there

My goal is to create a graph with one column and three rows into a single graphic. The mfrow, mfcol, and layout functions all have the same effect: three graphs are produced in a single pdf file, having one graph per page. This is not what I want (I didn't want multiple pages). Just before I sent this post, I was able to generate the desired output with split.screen. Is this the expected
