similar to: what's the command in R to completely clear the state of the console(including clearing up libraries, etc?)

In the documentation the closed thing I see to an explanation of this is that ?detach says "Unloading some namespaces has undesirable side effects" Can anyone explain why unloading tseries will load zoo? I don't think this behavior is specific to tseries, it's just an example. I realize one would not usually unload something that is not loaded, but I would expect it to do

Dear list, I'm hoping the R guru's can help with an error i've been getting for at least a year during active package development. I have a package loaded & spot a documentation bug, so I: edit the Rd file (or in the roxygen header + roxygenize); then R CMD BUILD, R CMD INSTALL then in the same R session, reload the library & lookup a man page, I always get this error: Error

Hello, I spent a lot of a time on a weird bug, and I just managed to narrow it down. In parallel code (here with parallel::mclappy, but I got it doMC/multicore too), if the library(tcltk) is loaded, R hangs when trying to open a DB connection. I got the same behaviour on two different computers, one dual-core, and one 2 xeon quad-core. Here's the code: library(parallel) library(RSQLite)

Dear all again: I have been trying to clear weeks of codes in my R console, even after quitting and coming back another day!. One of you out there graciously suggested this rm(list=ls(all=TRUE)). I tried this but no dice. Codes tried. Ctrl +L , clears for the time... and the the latest i used ... rm(list=ls(all=TRUE)) Does anybody has another option of clearing the console of old codes?.

Thanks for all your great answers. The app I?m working on is indeed an exploratory data analysis tool for gene expression, which requires a bunch of bioconductor packages. I guess for now, my best solution is to divide my app into modules and load/unload packages as the user switch from one module to another. This brought me another question: it seems that unload package with the

If one wants to unload compiled code for a package containing a namespace, my understanding is that .onUnload() should be used, with a call to library.dynam.unload(). This is used in e.g., the stats and methods packages, but it appears to me that the compiled code is not being unloaded when the package is detached(). Am I misunderstanding something? Best, Jim > search() [1]

Hi, I am wondering if there is a parameter in library() so that it can reinforce package to be reloaded. It helps when you test your modified package by yourself. Otherwise, my way is to re-start Rgui. (by reading ?library, I understand this option is not implemented) "...Both functions check and update the list of currently loaded packages and do not reload a package which is already

library() seems to remember the location of a package when I give it a lib.loc, and then use that version thereafter, even if I don't supply lib.loc again. Is there any way I can load different versions of a package in one R session? -- I don't seem to able to simply detach the package and then load a different version from a different library location. $ R [...startup info...] >

Hello. To save the hassle of quitting and restarting R every time I rebuild the package I'm working on (for the purposes of this question called "roots") I would like to write a script cleanly remove the package from my R session and then load it again. Of course detach("package:roots") works for the native R objects in the package. However, the compiled C library remains

Dear list, I know it must be obvious and I did my homework. (In fact I've RSiteSearched with keyword "remove AND library" but got timed out.(why?)....) How do I unload a library? I don't mean getting ride of it permanently but just to unload it for the time being. A related problem : I have some libraries loaded at startup in .First() which I have in .Rprofile. Now, I exited R

Dear All: I do see I have weeks of codes in my console when I check with my arrow up keys. I have been clearing them with Control L but it seems to clear it clear the screen temporally. I do see the previous codes again when I open R the next day, after quitting the session! Q: How do I clear this? Thanks; YA -- View this message in context:

Hi, Could someone please point to me which function clears the R console under Windows? (exactly what the R Gui Windows menu "Edit > Clear Console" does). Seems simple but I haven't been succesful with the help system (help.search for "console", "clear console", "screen"...) nor on the list archives. Thanks in advance!! Enrique

Hello, I have a package with a namespace. Because I use Roxygen that overwrites the NAMESPACE file each time it is run, I use a R/zzz.R file with an .onLoad() and .onUnload() functions to take care of loading and unloading my shared library. The problem: if I load my library from a local directory, then the unloading of the package fails, e.g: # loads fine >library(Foo,

HI all, How to clear the screen in R-console? Thanks a lot@! [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

We try the following: search() as.Date(1) zoo:::as.Date.numeric under three circumstances: 1. on a fresh session 2. after issuing library(zoo) noting that as.Date.numeric is provided by zoo 3. after detaching zoo as.Date(1) fails on #1 but succeeds in #2 and #3. Should it not fail in #3 since zoo was detached? Is this how its supposed to work? (Note that entering zoo:::as.Date.numeric at
