In what way is this a bug in R? It looks like a bug in the package, and as Defn.h is not part of R's API any packge using it is `at risk' (and cannot be installed in a binary-only installation, or even an installed version of R). In particular, Defn,.h depends on config.h, and it seems you installed a binary version of R and used separate sources. I would suggest building R from

Hi Ivan Can you please clarify what input files should be used with your proposed function? I tried a few files in r-svn/src/include and one of them gave me an error. > getdecl("~/R/r-svn/src/include/R.h") [1] "R_FlushConsole" "R_ProcessEvents" "R_WaitEvent" > getdecl("~/R/r-svn/src/include/Rdefines.h") Error in regmatches(lines,

Dear Developers, I'm updating my R installation via svn (currently: Revision 44626). For some time now (sorry don't know the exact revision number) make for R devel yields the following error make[4]: *** Keine Regel vorhanden, um das Target ?../../../src/include/R_ext/GraphicsBase.h?, ben?tigt von ?g_fontdb.o?, zu erstellen. Schluss. (translation: no rule to make target ...

Dear All, I tried to write a C++ program that uses R internals and I encounter "undefined reference" error when linking to libR.so. Here is an small example of the program test.cpp: extern "C" { #include <config.h> #include <IOStuff.h> int main(int argc, char** argv) { R_IoBufferInit(&R_ConsoleIob); return 0; } } I built it using: g++ -o test

Dear Group, I'm trying to build a set of new graphic device drivers. I use the devNull example a a beginning point: $ R CMD SHLIB devNull.c gcc -shared -L/usr/local/lib -o devNull.so devNull.o (everything works OK) $ R CMD SHLIB devNull.cpp g++ -shared -L/usr/local/lib -o devNull.so devNull.o (everything works OK) The difficulties start when trying to compile manually. I compile the

Dear all, in src/include/GraphicsBase.h one has a declaration int baseRegisterIndex; the same as in src/main/devices.c which causes problems on Solaris, see bug #17385, and other platforms with "unusual" linkers, see bug #16633. By right, global variables like baseRegisterIndex are to be declared just once, and not in a header file, but in a *.c file. Then, to use them elsewhere in

Full_Name: Richard Boyce Version: 2.1.-1 OS: Debian testing/unstable Submission from: (NULL) (128.95.123.29) While building a custom package using a modified version of Duncan's REventLoop with R version 2.1 (Debian package r-base, r-base-dev) and R source from apt-get source 2.1.1 I get the following error: $ R CMD build vjREventLoop * checking for file

Hi, As the subject suggests, I am looking for the most robust way to call an (arbitrary) function from the R API from another but the main POSIX thread in a package's code. I know that, "[c]alling any of the R API from threaded code is ?for experts only? and strongly discouraged. Many functions in the R API modify internal R data structures and might corrupt these data structures if

I noticed some undocumented and inconsistent behavior in device_Raster when a plot is produced with reflected axes such as: image(volcano, xlim = c(1,0), useRaster = TRUE) image(volcano, ylim = c(1,0), useRaster = TRUE) The `pdf` device will perform horizontal and vertical reflections, while `quartz` will ignore the transformations when plotting to the screen, but when plotting to a

Hi all, i'm trying to install JGR on linux (see bottom), but it runs into errors. The bottom of the sequence below shows "JavaJD could not be found" Any suggestion, please? $ sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk $ sudo update-alternatives --config java There are 5 alternatives which provide `java'.

Hi, I am happy to announce that I finished the translation of almost all LGPL'ed R headerfiles to Delphi. As a test I did several demos which basically contain delphized versions of all the examples of chapter 5 in "Writing R Extensions". Please have a look in the attachments for details (DemosAndHeaders.txt), more information (Readme.txt) and an example of how it looks

Stepan, Andreas gave a lot more thought into what you question in your reply. His question was how you can avoid what you where proposing and have proper threading under safe conditions. Having dealt with this before, I think Andreas' write up is pretty much the most complete analysis I have seen. I'd wait for Luke to chime in as the ultimate authority if he gets to it. The

This is an update on some current work on the C API for use in R extensions. The internal R implementation makes use of tens of thousands of C entry points. On Linux and Windows, which support visibility restrictions, most of these are visible only within the R executble or shared library. About 1500 are not hidden and are visible to dynamically loaded shared libraries, such as ones in packages,

Hello. I'm looking for documentation about the graphic device model in R. I would understand it in the details, but it seems a bit complex :) Thanks for any documents which will help me. Laurent

Hi r72261 in r-devel has modified the graphics device API and bumped R_GE_version in GraphicsEngine.h (to satisfy PR 16951). This means that ... (i) third-party graphics device packages need to be reinstalled. (ii) third-party graphics device packages will ideally need a new version for r-devel. (iii) any packages that make use of getGraphicsEvent() should test against r-devel (and let me

I get the error undefined symbol: Rf_rownamesgets when I try to load my package, which include C++ code that calls that function. This is particularly strange since the code also calls Rf_classgets, and it loaded OK with just that. Can anyone tell me what's going on? For the record, I worked around this with the general purpose attribute setting commands and R_RowNamesSymbol. I

I have a continuous loop running in an external library that I am calling from C (R API). This loop is processing events in real time with the possibility of significant lag between events. When processing an event, I can make use of R_CheckUserInterrupt, but while the external library code is waiting on a new event, I don't have an opportunity to call this - my entry points are only on

Partly about new features and partly about old features that are not being used. R_exts/GraphicsEngine.h says /* * The current graphics engine (including graphics device) API version * MUST be integer * * This number should be bumped whenever there are changes to * GraphicsEngine.h or GraphicsDevice.h so that add-on packages * that compile against these headers (graphics systems

Hi This is for developers of extension packages that provide extra *graphics devices* for R. In the *development* version of R, support has been added to the graphics engine for sending raster images (bitmaps) to a graphics device. This consists mainly of two new device functions: dev_Raster() and dev_Cap(). The R_GE_version constant (in GraphicsEngine.h) has been bumped up to 6 as a

Hi, I read the 2000 thread on a MetaPost device in R. If I understand correctly, the main problem with the concept is that R wants the device driver to give back information on the size of strings/labels. To the bet of my knowledge, MetaPost _does_ make it possible to measure the bounding box of text (see section 7.3: Measuring text in the MetaPost manual). For example, one could get the size of
