Dear list, I've been trying to get gWidgets/gWidgetsRGtk2 to run every other month for a while, but somehow I simply can't figure out what's going wrong. I tried several distributions of the GTK runtime environment for Windows (http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gladewin32/gtk-2.12.9-win32-1.exe as described in the package's vignette,

Hi there, I''d like to choose between an "static" and "dynamic" access of a reference class field, say ''a''. myObj <- getRefClass("Blabla")$new() Static: myObj$a Dynamic: myObj$a.get() where the function retrieves the data from a database (or some other location), stores it to a buffer and

Dear List, I’m doing my first baby steps towards developing own R Packages and ran into the following problem: R CMD check mypackage works fine (no errors, no warnings) R CMD build mypackage works fine (no errors, no warnings) R CMD INSTALL –library=”C:\R\R-2.11.1\library” “something\mypackage\mypackage_1.0.tar.gz” works fine (no errors, no warnings) However, when I try loading the

Dear list, somehow I can't get the Roxygen tag "@example" to work for me. My "Roxygen-Header" of a script containing, say, a function looks like this: #' My header #' #' My description #' #' @param a Blabla. #' @param b Blabla. #' @return \code{TRUE}. #' @callGraphPrimitives #' @references #'

Greetings list, I am new to programming in R, and am using nnet() function for a project on neural networking. Firstly I wish to ask if there is any pdf explaining the algorithm nnet uses, which could tell me what the objects of the nnet class, like 'conn', 'nconn, 'nsunits', n and 'nunits' mean, and how weights are calculated. The package pdf has little or no

Hi, I wrote a small utility to stay in Windows tray and indicate NUT UPS device status and some properties. The tray icon shows UPS battery status (from green for 100% to red for 0% and red-crossed for unconnected state). The tooltip shows UPS manufacturer and model names, date of production, UPS status, battery status and voltage, time left when running on batteries. Archive containing compiled

Dear list, a while ago I posted this at r-devel but got no answers. Hope it?s okay to give it a shot again by cross-posting it here.

I do alot of work with the Autoit V3 scripting language (http://autoitscript.com) which is a windows-based high-level language with most of the functionality of more mainstream languages [/walking billboard] I used this language as a demonstration. It seems like running programs in Wine do not respect the Linux PATH. It must be ran using the entire path I.E running "firefox", which

Hello, I'm on Windows, and according to the documentation R searches along the search path when looking for dll's for dyn.load. For illustration, I've copied the XML.dll from package XML in the C:/Temp folder if (file.exists("C:/Temp/XML.dll")) { Sys.setenv(path = paste("C:/Temp;", Sys.getenv("path"), sep=""))

Dear List, I am not really familiar with any other language than R, but I?ve heard that in other languages there is something called ?self referencing?. Here?s what I?m trying to get an answer for: Suppose there is a function that takes as its input a value of a slot of an S4 object. The function itself is stored in another slot of the SAME S4 object. Is it then possible to have the function

Dear list, I was wondering if you could help me out in clarifying something: Is it possible to use class "ANY" in slots/fields of formal classes if you a) do not want to restrict valid classes of that field and b) if you are making explicit use of class inheritance? It seems to work in simple scenarios but produces errors when class inheritance comes into play. So I was

Right. glibc's amusing stance is that you setenv/putenv are not thread safe, but getenv is. I assume Ruby exposes setenv and therefore simply not calling setenv isn't an option. Would it solve your problems if all getenv() calls happened at cl::ParseCommandLineOptions() time? On Thu, May 23, 2013 at 9:49 AM, Dirkjan Bussink <d.bussink at gmail.com>wrote: > Hello, > >

Thanks a lot for answering. Before I get into it, please note that everything below bears the big capture "Thanks for trying to help me at all". 1) Yeah, those examples - quite hard to satisfy everyone's needs ;-) While the one side complained that my past examples regarding this issue were not informative enough, others didn't like the more elaborated version (as seems to be

Hello, In Rubinius we're seeing an occasional crash inside LLVM that always happens inside getenv(), which is used for example when creating a MCContext (inside lib/MC/MCContext.cpp, it checks getenv("AS_SECURE_LOG_FILE")). The problem is that getenv() and friends aren't thread safe and Rubinius provides a multithreaded system. We can relatively easily get locking setup around

Dear list, I'm sorry to keep coming back with this time and time again, but this bug is still not fixed even though the root cause of the issue has been around for 2-3 years now. And as the number of packages that depend on XML grows, I thought maybe this deserves some wider attention. I did my best to make reproduction of the issue as easy as possible:

Hi Gabriel, and thanks for answering. I'm basically just trying to find a way to use the power of `...` in more complex scenarios and I'm well aware that this might not be the best approach ;-) Regarding your actual question: "Are you suggesting methods be dispatched based on the *contents* of ... [...]?" Yes, I guess currently I kind of do - but not on the argument *names*

Dear list, today I stumbled across the function ?nsl()? for the first time in order to perform a hostname lookup. According to the R Reference Index (Version 2.9.1, page 1522), the function should be part of the "utils" package. However, I cannot find it in the utils package of my installation(s). I've tried the R-versions 2.8.1, 2.9.0 and 2.9.1. I'd be very thankful if

Dear list, I've got the following problem: In a package I'm trying to build, there exists a method for the function "as.ts()". When checking the package, R always throws the error that it cannot find a function called "as.ts". To me it seems that the package "stats" (home of "as.ts()") is not loaded during the checking process even though
