similar to: (PR#7826) Re: ... print.POSIXct .. infinite recursion

Dear Peter, Thank you very much for your kind and helpful reply. As I mentioned in a followup email to r-bugs, indeed, one aspect of this issue is a (user specified) shorter stack than that expected by R -- I had only allowed 1 MB of stack space a long long time ago, and forgotten about it. Due to a glitch with r-bugs@r-project.org, I ended up submitting this bug twice, and your original

1) Why did you submit this *twice*, as PR#7826 and PR#7827? Please don't be so careless of the volunteers' time. 2) > print.POSIXct function (x, ...) { print(format(x, usetz = TRUE, ...), ...) invisible(x) } is definitely *not* implicated. (Use of ... in two places is correct.) 3) On FC3: > unusual_and_faults Error: protect(): protection stack overflow >

In attempting to build R using rpmbuild --rebuild R-2.1.0-0.fdr.2.fc3.src.rpm on a fairly up-to-date RedHat 9 system (that is, with patches installed through May 1 2004), it failed at the make check-all step.

R 2.6.1 on a Thinkpad T60 running up-to-date Gentoo: Despite the documentation, which says: 'strftime' is an alias for 'format.POSIXlt', and 'format.POSIXct' first converts to class '"POSIXlt"' by calling 'as.POSIXlt'. Note that only that conversion depends on the time zone. strftime fails on POSIXct objects: > foo <-

In an optimized build, debug info is just an approximation. It might help to debug in a build of R and packages without compiler optimizations (-O0), where the debug information is accurate. However, first I would try to modify the example to trigger more often, or try to find external ways to make it trigger more often (e.g. via gctorture). Then I would try to make the example smaller (not

A reply from stackoverflow suggests I might have hit this bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14023 I can confirm that this glibc bug affects my system (latest CentOS 7). However, as far as I know, R is not multithreaded in its core. Is it possible that some library triggered this? Regards, Steve Tomas Kalibera <tomas.kalibera at gmail.com> ?2019?8?2??? ??4:59??? >

In the base package, as.POSIXct() is an S3 generic function, but as.POSIXlt() is not. As shown below, the current implementation is already crying out to be refactored into a generic function with methods for various classes. It calls "inherits" five times. Not only is this bad style, it also disallows me or anyone else from making as.POSIXlt() work with other kinds of time-ish

On the documentation page for DateTimeClasses, in the Examples section, there are the following two lines: format(.leap.seconds) # the leap seconds in your time zone print(.leap.seconds, tz = "PST8PDT") # and in Seattle's The second line (using print) seems to ignore the tz argument, and prints the dates in my time zone, while: format(.leap.seconds, tz =

The R script I run daily for hours looks like this: while (!finish) { Sys.sleep(0.1) time = as.integer(format(Sys.time(), "%H%M")) # always crash here if (new.data.timestamp() <= time) next # ... do some jobs for about 2 minutes ... gc() } Basically it waits for new data, which comes in every 10 minutes, and do some jobs, then gc(), then loop again. It

Hello! na.encode does not have any effect on format of NA values of Date and POSIXct (POSIXlt?) "atomic" classes in a data.frame. Here is the example (the same in R 2.3.1 and 2.5.0 (2006-09-19 r39409)): testData <- data.frame(num=c(NA, 2.6), int=c(1, NA), fac=factor(c(NA, "abc")), cha=c("a",

Tracking down this bug was joint work with Jermoe Asselin (jerome at hivnet.ubc.ca) and Patrick Connolly (p.connolly at hortresearch.co.nz). We collectively were able to determine that this is a problem in both Windows 2000 and in Linux and by testing it in our three time zones that it seems to be daylight savings time related. Conversion of POSIXlt datetimes to POSIXct appears to have problems.

In my 1021-version I get: > version _ platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch x86 os Win32 system x86, Win32 status major 1 minor 2.1 year 2001 month 01 day 15 language R > as.POSIXct( "1970/01/01" ) [1]

POSIXct/lt supports fractional seconds (see Sub-second Accuracy section of man page), but there seem to be some inconsistencies in their handling. Converting to POSIXlt and back does not give back the same time for times before the origin: > t0 <- as.POSIXct('1934-01-05 23:59:59.00001') > t0 [1] "1934-01-06 00:00:00 EST" # rounding issue, see below >

Hi, I encountered the behavior, that the duplicated method for data.frames gives "false positives" if there are columns of class POSIXct with a clock shift from DST to standard time. time <- as.POSIXct("2012-10-28 02:00", tz="Europe/Vienna") + c(0, 60*60) time [1] "2012-10-28 02:00:00 CEST" "2012-10-28 02:00:00 CET" df <-

R-devel: Some very inconsistent behavior, that I can't seem to find documented. Sys.setenv(TZ="GMT") str(unclass(strptime("1969-12-31 23:59:59","%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"))) List of 9 $ sec : num 59 $ min : int 59 $ hour : int 23 $ mday : int 31 $ mon : int 11 $ year : int 69 $ wday : int 3 $ yday : int 364 $ isdst: int 0 - attr(*, "tzone")= chr

In trying to use as.Date(), I've come across the conversion of POSIXlt to POSIXct when a POSIXlt variable is included in a data frame: my_POSIX <- strptime(c("11-09-2006", "11-10-2006", "11-11-2006", "11-12-2006", "11-13-2006"), "%m-%d-%Y") str(my_POSIX) my_Date <- as.Date(my_POSIX) str(my_Date) data <- format(my_Date)

Hi, I am trying to define the as.POSIXct as an S4 method for one of my classes. Trying to define a generic, I am getting an error that it is already differently defined in base. However, if I query for it, there is no definition. Being in base, I also cannot really import it. If I define methods without definig a generic, they will work but with a warning that a new generic will be automatically
