similar to: Problem with DLL in Windows NT (PR#763)

The trailing backslash seems to be the culprit. After looking at rw1020\bin\INSTALL, I noticed $pkg =~ s/\/$//; which I assume is to strip the trailing slash from a package name before obtaining the package name and cleaning out its directory I added $pkg =~ s/\\$//; immediately after this line. Rerunning Rcmd INSTALL C:\rw1011\src\library\bqtl\ with that change seemed to work OK

Hello! I tried to build the RMySQL package by myself on an NT machine. I have a NT machine with cygwin compiler and activestate Perl installed on it.

Guido has fixed Rterm hanging on Windows 2000 in interactive and --ess modes. The problem was that 'PulseEvent' doesn't work under 2000 as documented (and I can find nothing about this in MicroSoft's Knowledge Base except that it is known to happen under a debugger). The cross-compiled pre-release at http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/RWin/Rpre now incoporates the fix, and we

Dear R people: I am trying to download the package polynom to R version 1.0.1.1. on Windows.

Folks, Two simple questions : (1) I have a data set (call it data.xls) in a folder in my hard drive. How do I perform a simple regression between two variables from that data set? After I click on 'R', what exactly do I type in? (2) Where do I get to see the complete library of packages offered by R? In particular, I am interested in quantile regression and logistic regression.

Just a quick question, in case I'm doing something really boneheaded that could be easily sorted out. I'm attempting to save() datasets on Linux (R 1.1.1) and load() them on Win2K (rw1011, fetched from CRAN today). I get the "restore file corrupted" message every time. I've tried saving with ascii=TRUE and FALSE, and the ASCII versions look OK (it's my impression

Charles Raux raised the problem of having object names with accented chars in. This is supposed to work, but depends on the machine being set to a locale that allows accented chars, and knowing correctly which they are. Windows being what it is, this is a problem. It seems that with the standard runtime crtdll.dll that rw1011 uses, Windows 9x does not know about locales, whereas NT does but

Hello, I try to install the R111 version for few days on my PC (on Windows NT), and every time the same problem : I start the rwin.exe application and a couple of seconds later, the install failed, and my PC is down. I must then swich it down and restart a new session. If someone has some help ... Thanks -- Isabelle Zabalza-Mezghani Tel : 01 47 52 61 99 Institut Fran?ais du P?trole

I have re-built all the compiled packages for R 1.2.0 for Windows, and the set available in CRAN/bin/windows/contrib are now for rw1020. If you are upgrading to rw1020, please replace all the compiled packages you have downloaded by ones from this set. There a few packages available for the first time: RMySQL mlbench netCDF and a few that are not yet running on 1.2.0 on any platform hdf5

Dear R-helpers, I'm learning how to compile R packages with fortran routines and use the acepack source as an example. After some hiccups (Guido told me about the need to set make_mode=UNIX) I got to the following: `make pkg-acepack' runs without error (see below), but it does not * compile any .f file in acepack/src * (hence) try to create any dll file or libs (I'm

(Sorry, I had the previous emails on a different machine.) Thanks to Prof Ripley for diagnosing the problem with inconsistent capitals under Win98. It's 'interesting': * I had ...\acepack\Src\Ace.f Avas.f and Rlsmo.f (tar'ed in a Unix machine and Ws_FTP'ed to the PC) * when the directory name was changed to ...\acepack\src it still didn't work *

On behalf of Michael Lapsley, who is away. There is a new version of RODBC on CRAN, version 0.8-2. A version compiled for rw1011 will propagate to CRAN tonight. Main differences: - This will work with the up-coming R 1.2.0. - Nulls in databases are handled (more) correctly. The bug that has been reported with repeated entries was it transpires to do with null fields, not empty ones

Hi, I tried to read in a big table (1.4M rows, 4 fields each) using read.table() and ran out of 'cons' memory with the following message: Error: cons memory (2800000 cells) exhausted Could someone please explain how to guess required nsize? My understanding of help(Memory) is that 'cons' memory should not be a limitation unless you create many "language" objects.

I noticed the See Also section of the help page for winDialog refers to a "package windlgs in the package source distribution..." but I can't seem to find any documentation on this. Does anyone know if it exists or where to find out more about it? Any information would be helpful, thanks. -------------------------------------------- Till E.

Hi, I have a dataset where we are trying to model the resistance of horses' lungs. One of the covariates is the administered pressure. This variable is a little odd in the sense that an increase of pressure corresponds to a "more negative value" of the covariate. A graph representing the change in resistance in function of the pressure would be helpful for the biologist. But it
