Here's an update of my rawConnection() implementation. In addition to providing a raw version of textConnection(), this fixes two existing issues with textConnection(): one is that the current textConnection() implementation carries around unprotected SEXP pointers, the other is a performance problem due to prolific copying of the output buffer as output is accumulated line by line. This new

I've just implemented a generalization of R's text connections, to also support reading/writing raw binary data. There is very little new code to speak of. For input connections, I wrote code to populate the old text connection buffer from a raw vector, and provided a new raw_read() method. For output connections, I wrote a raw_write() to append to a raw vector. On input, the mode

Hi, I'm new to R, and am trying to embed R into another application. I'm calling gev.fit() from the ismev package, and it is crashing somewhere inside it. gdb is not catching it, and valgrind is not showing any memory corruption issues. I suspect it's memory corruption, because it doesn't crash in exactly the same spot each time. I'm running R 2.12.2 on a 64 bit linux (Ubuntu

Full_Name: Ruskin Chow Version: R 2.0.1 OS: Windows 2000 Submission from: (NULL) (203.169.154.66) Data imported from SAS using read.xport() in package foreign are converted to <NA> when the SAS data field consists of character strings that are only one character long. This is apparently a previously reported bug and perhaps fixed in some platform other than Windows (rw2001).Some

Hi, I have been studying the R manual on lists but cannot seem to create a simple R list in C - I keep on getting "'dimnames' applied to non-array" whenever I attempt to assign names to the list elements: Wanted output a list structure something like [ type="Bid", price=2.0, volume=1000 ] I can get up to a list of [ "Bid2, 2.0, 1000 ] But for the life of

Hi, Is the below -- setSeed -- an okay way to set the seed in standalone applications making use of Rlib? It seems to work as expected. Is there a better way to do it? (I'm also looking at do_setseed but am unsure what to supply as op. findFun("set.seed", R_GlobalEnv)?) Thanks much. -- David Faden, dfaden at iastate.edu AIM: pitulx -- #include <assert.h> #include

Hi Sri, I haven't really elaborated on it having other stuff to prepare first, but as far as I got you first assign data to a vector: #include <R.h> #include <Rinternals.h> #undef R_INTERFACE_PTRS #include <Rembedded.h> #include "Rcpp.hpp" #include <R_ext/Parse.h> #include <Rinternals.h> #include <Rdefines.h> //assigning a vector SEXP

It appears that grDevices (and perhaps other R libraries) is built without passing C_VISIBILITY to PKG_CFLAGS (-fvisibility=hidden), while other libraries (e.g. utils) do use the flag. This results in potential crashes on linux in situations like using embedded R in another application that happens to export a symbol named similarly to one defined in R's library, since the runtime linker

Dear list, I am trying to implement a publish-subscribe mechanism in for an embedded R interpreter. But somehow my registered closures seem to get collected by the GC, even though I have protected them. I have reducted my code to the following sample. Sorry if it is a little verbose. The first couple of call of calls still work, but at some point one of the callbacks (callback1 in my

Hi , For our production package i need to create a dataframein C . So I wrote the following code SEXP dfm ,head,df , dfint , dfStr,lsnm; *SEXP valueVector[2];* char *ab[3] = {"aa","vv","gy"}; int sn[3] ={99,89,12}; char *listnames[2] = {"int","string"}; int i,j; //============================= PROTECT(df = allocVector(VECSXP,2));

Hi , I am trying to create a dataframe in C and sebd it back to R. Can anyone point me to the part of the source code where it is doing , let me explain the problem I am having . -------------------------------------------------------------------- My simple implementation is like this SEXP formDF() { SEXP dfm ,df , dfint , dfStr,lsnm; char *ab[3] =

Can we use the "bytes" encoding for such environment variables invalid in the current locale? The following patch preserves CE_NATIVE for strings valid in the current UTF-8 or multibyte locale (or non-multibyte strings) but sets CE_BYTES for those that are invalid: Index: src/main/sysutils.c =================================================================== --- src/main/sysutils.c

David, I didn't have time to dig through the code completely, but those other two are being set automatically in the C code as far as I can tell, in particular in the code // localtime may change tzname. if (isgmt) { PROTECT(tzone = mkString(tz)); } else { PROTECT(tzone = allocVector(STRSXP, 3)); SET_STRING_ELT(tzone, 0, mkChar(tz)); SET_STRING_ELT(tzone, 1,

I'm trying to generate an R interface for a library that's commonly used and I'm currently writing wrapper functions for file i/o and return an object (list?) that contains the elements of the C structure. For example, reading a file that contains: struct CONFIG_RECORD { char coeffs_filename[256]; char species_filename[256]; unsigned long

Hi, I want to read a text file into R with .Call(). So I define some NEW_CHARACTER() to store the chracters read and use SET_STRING_ELT to fill the elements. e.g. PROTECT(qNames = NEW_CHARACTER(10000)); char *foo; // This foo holds the string I want. while(foo = readLine(FN)){ SET_STRING_ELT(qNames, i, mkChar(foo))); } In this way, I can get the desired character from qNames. The only problem

Hello, If repeated calls are made to save() using the same pre-opened gzfile connection to a file, and then the connection is closed, the objects saved by the second and subsequent calls are not correctly restored by repeated calls to load() with a new gzfile connection to the same file. What follows are a session exposing the bugs, analysis (see ANALYSIS), patches (see PATCHES), and a session

As most R developers maybe are already aware of, R version 1.2.0 introduced a new `generational' garbage collector which means that strings and vectors (and language objects) are handled differently from the numerical atomic types. >From ``Writing R Extensions'': Earlier code was written in a style like. VECTOR(dimnames)[0] = getAttrib(x, R_NamesSymbol);

The other day I was working on an example which used tempfile() to create file for use by the graphics device. And while I love tempfile()---as it is portable and clever and the files get cleaned by R and all that---I noticed one missing feature I would like to see: beside a starting name pattern, and an optional directory, an 'file extension' argument would be nice to have. As e.g. in
