similar to: write.dcf/read.dcf cycle converts missing entry to "NA" (PR#9796)

BIll, Thanks. I am seeing some problems here, for example when all the fields are missing, or all the fields in a row are missing. I've fixes for those, and will commit to R-devel shortly.

Dear all Recently, i did some work to test small files performance for gnfsv3 transport. Following is my scenario. #####environment##### ==2 cluster nodes(nodeA/nodeB)== each is equipped with E5-2650*2, 128G memory and 10GB*2 netcard nodeA: 10.254.3.77 10.128.3.77 nodeB: 10.254.3.78 10.128.3.78 ==2 stress nodes(clientA/clientB)== each is equipped with E5-2650*2, 128G memory and 10GB*2

write.dcf(list('my-field' = 1L), tmp <- tempfile()) cat(readLines(tmp)) # my.field: 1 However there's nothing wrong with hyphenated fields per the Debian standard: https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html And in fact we see them using hyphenated fields there, and indeed read.dcf handles this just fine: writeLines(gsub('.', '-',

The change in r42731 eliminating the final blank line when writing DCF files changes the way 'append' can be used in 'write.dcf' and I was wondering if this is intentional. Basically, I want to write a data frame to DCF format one row at a time, so I make use of repeated calls to 'write.dcf(append = TRUE)'. However, in R 2.6.0RC the resulting DCF file is not formatted

I don't know if this is a bug per se, but an undesired behavior in read.dcf. read.dcf takes a file argument and passes it to gzfile if it's a character: if (is.character(file)) { file <- gzfile(file) on.exit(close(file)) } This gzfile connection is passed to readLines (line #39): lines <- readLines(file) If no newline is at the end of the file, readLines

Full_Name: charles blundell Version: 2.7.0 OS: Debian GNU/Linux Submission from: (NULL) (217.37.73.202) The Debian Policy Manual says concerning lines in a Description field: * Those containing a space, a full stop and some more characters.

Hi, read.dcf() can modify the locale variable LC_CTYPE, and here is a minimal example: > Sys.getlocale('LC_CTYPE') [1] "en_US.UTF-8" > read.dcf(textConnection('a: b'), all = TRUE) a 1 b > Sys.getlocale('LC_CTYPE') [1] "C" After diagnosing the problem, it seems the on.exit() call in read.dcf() is the culprit:

Dear R devs, I would like to raise a request for a simple helper function. Utility function to extract package dependencies from DESCRIPTION file. I do think that tools package is better place, for such a fundamental functionality, than community packages. tools pkg seems perfect fit (having already great function write_PACKAGES). Functionality I am asking for is already in R svn repository

I'm seeing a segfault on x86_64 Linux with the following code: desc = read.dcf("BAD") con = gzfile("test.gz", "wt") write.dcf(desc, file=con) close(con) where BAD has a long field (see below for example). The crash happens inside dummy_vfprintf. I think the issue is that the va_list ap is modified by the first vsnprintf call

I have several hundred Excel 2007 data files in a folder. I would like to read every file in a single given folder using a loop. I have searched the FAQ, the forum archives here, other or older R boards and the R Import / Export documentation, and have asked some very knowledgeable R users without learning of a solution. I hope someone here can help. I understand that the most common

Dear R-Users, I'm trying to setup a personal repository for a few packages I'm working on. I am on R-Forge but I still need to have various versions of my package that R-Forge does not build (for R 2.8.1 for example). So I followed the instructions in this document: Hhttp:// cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-admin.html#Setting-up-a-package-repository and used this function as

Was looking at what was output for <pkgname>-package.Rd and wondered if any there was any means (via macro, etc) to merge some of the same information with a template for my package manpage? As much (all?) of the generated information was already provided in the DESCRIPTION, I'd prefer not to have to update the information in multiple places. I'm thinking here that I could provide a

Thank you Gabriel, Just for future readers. Below is a base R way to address this common problem, as instructed by you (+stopifnot to suppress print). Rscript -e 'stopifnot(file.copy("DESCRIPTION", file.path(tdir<-tempdir(), "PACKAGES"))); db<-available.packages(paste0("file://", tdir));

ID: T8dfe471e360ac80264c6c Dear, I'm using R 2.8.1 with the package reshape version 0.8.2 . It seems that the combine_factor function has problems with combining levels to an empty level: #EXAMPLE WORKING test<-sample(c(1:10),1000,replace=T) testf<-factor(test, c(1:10), LETTERS[1:10]) table(testf,exclude=NULL) testc<-combine_factor(testf, c(1,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,2))

It happens in the fda package because some of the headers are longer than typical (e.g., "Repository/R-Forge/DateTimeStamp") and formatDL dies if the indent argument is too large compared to the width argument. It might be nice to change formatDL so it never gave such an error, but did something reasonable when the 'indent' argument was too big. Changing if (indent >

Using R 2.4, the following fails: setClass("testc", representation(a="ANY")) makeC <- function(myarg) new("testc", a=myarg) makeC() -> Error in initialize(value, ...) : argument "myarg" is missing, with no default On the other hand, this is OK: f <- function(a) g(b=a) g <- function(b) if(missing(b)) "missing" else "valid

I have many very large dataframes with 20 columns each. In order to conserve memory, I wish to separate the data frame into 20 vectors, each named the name of the dataframe followed by .1,.2,.3 .20. (For example purposes, one data frame is named ?testa?.) e.g. testa.1, testa.2, testa.3 I have written the code to do this (see below). I am trying to convert this into a function that I can reuse.

Hello: I tried "debug(help)" with the problem mentioned below. It stopped with a call to "library", from which I generate the following simple replication of this error: > library(help = 'fda', character.only = TRUE) Error in formatDL(nm, txt, indent = max(nchar(nm, "w")) + 3) : incorrect values of 'indent' and 'width'

Hi, I'm setting up Samba with ldap backend and everythin appears to be working correctly except for profiles.
