similar to: debug package: mtrace fails

Hi, everyone. I am using a fair amount of closures in my code. Problem i am experiencing is i cannot figure out how to mtrace functions defined within a function. There must be some way to name such function for mtrace to see it and let me step into it. For example, say i have code mymodel<-function(){ data<-numeric(0) build<-function(){ data<<-1 } m<-list()

Dear useRs, I am experiencing very strange error with Mark Bravington's package "debug". I haven't seen them before. Here is the sample session > library(debug) Loading required package: mvbutils MVBUTILS: no "tasks" vector found in ROOT Loading required package: tcltk Loading Tcl/Tk interface ... done > x<-function() return(1) > mtrace(x) > x() Error

Hi all, I am using "mtrace" malloc debugging utility to trace memory leaks in my application. I followed following steps: 1. Added mtrace() function in the beginning of my main function. 2. exported the MALLOC_TRACE environment variable. $ export MALLOC_TRACE=memory.log 3. Run the program 4. trace the program for memory leaks. $ mtrace <myprogram> $MALLOC_TRACE But In

Hi all, I know it may not have much sense thinking about a Singleton Pattern in an R application which doesn't use any OOP facilities, however I'm curious to know if anybody faced the same issue. I've been googling but using "singleton pattern" as a key word leads to typical OOP languages like Java or C++ among others. So my problem is that I'd like to ensure some very

Hello, pointed to the article "Debugging Without (Too Many) Tears" of Mark Bravington in Rnews Vol 3/3, December 2003 there is a package mvbutils mentioned. So I started to install this package from within R > install.package(mvbutils) I receive an error essage that this package is not found! Is due to a merge,removal or rename of this package? When I try to follow this

I use windows xp. When trying to use the function mtrace from package debug the window that should open with the function to be debugged do not show any text at all. It shows only a part of my desktop. Does anyone know why. Is there any imcompatibility between windows xp and debug package. Thanks in advance. Enio Jelihovschi [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I find the R debug package very useful. I've installed and used it on several of the machines I use, without problems, but on one machine I get the following error: Loading required package: mvbutils Loading required package: utils MVBUTILS: no "tasks" vector found in ROOT Loading required package: tcltk Loading Tcl/Tk interface ... done [Previously saved

Hello I need some help in figuring Bravington’s debugger out. Ok I have 2 functions, fun1 and fun2 saved in a ASCII file say filename is funs. Fun1 has a loop which calls fun2, fun2 has a loop which fails and I need to find out the value of the variables of the fun2 and fun1 loops at the specific iteration that fails. Both fun1 and fun2 loops will iterate thousands of times so line by line debug

I am using getYahooData from TTR to get daily data. When i do it standalone, it is fine. It also works fine inside my code. However, when i run code inside mtrace(), i always get the following error: Error in xts(cbind(adj[[1]], adj[[2]]), index(obj)): order.by requires an appropriate time-based object After a lot of hand wringing, it looks to me that it happens because index in xts masks

Hello, In the past I have used intensively the mtrace function from the debug package, but now with my actual version of R(2.8.1) , it is impossible to use it anymore. I've updated all my packages, and I don't understand how solve this problem... Here is an example code : > foo<-function(){cat("Test Function")} > mtrace(foo) > foo() # A tcl/tk windows open

How do you debug methods of a reference class? I've been using mtrace, which is excellent, but i cannot figure out how to mtrace a reference class method. Maybe there is some other way to debug these, for example with ordinary trace? for now i am only able to use options(error=recover), which is not giving me idea where exactly in the code i am once i am stopped on an error. -- View this

Hi Jannis [I'm the author of package debug... I know this is 6 months after your query, sorry-- but I don't subscribe to R-help, and you didn't post to the maintainer!

Deal R , when I use the package debug, mark a function with mtrace() and enter into the browser like mechanism of debug a window displaying the code of the marked function with the current line highlighted usually appears. When I use GUIs other than ess or the standard R console sometimes this window is totally transparent so it is not possible to see any code in it. After closing/resizing

I have got a general problem when applying a function to a dataframe using the function; Apply(df,1,myfunct) Where myfunct has an IF statement in it along the lines of; If (z == 0) X = 1 If (z ==0) Z = 1 I.e. Two If statements Is there something I am missing or have a just formed the if statements wrong ­ just checking there is not some trick you have to use when using apply with functions

Hi. I recently upgraded to R version 2.4.0, and I have found that the "debug" package no longer works. In particular, when I try to debug a function, I get the following error message: Error in attr(value, "row.names") <- rlabs : row names must be 'character' or 'integer', not 'double' I have, of course, taken all the necessary preceding

Hi all, I met a problem while using the debug package, I have the following program: mainfun<- function(){ beta<-1 result<-subfun(beta+x) } subfun<-function(expr){ y <- eval(expr, envir=list(x=c(1,2)),enclos = parent.frame()) return(y) } I have no problem using this program without calling the debug

I would like to be able to trace execution into calls below the current function, or to follow execution as calls return. This is roughly the distinction between "step" and "next" in many debuggers. I would also like to be able to switch to a location further up the call stack than the location at which I enter the debugger, to see the context of the current operations. Are

Hi there, Could someone help me with the following programming problem..? I have written a function that works for my intended purpose, but it is quite closely tied to a particular dataframe and the names of the variables in this dataframe. However, I'd like to use the same function for different dataframes and variables. My problem is that I'm not quite sure how to tell my function in
