I also just noticed that there is a bug: identical(ans, FALSE) should be is.null(ans). So no error is thrown: > methods:::genericForPrimitive("foo") NULL Will fix.

Doing it like this: genericForPrimitive <- function(f, where = topenv(parent.frame()), mustFind = TRUE) { ans = .BasicFunsList[[f]] ## this element may not exist (yet, during loading), dom't test null if(mustFind && identical(ans, FALSE)) stop(gettextf("methods may not be defined for primitive function %s in this version of R",

Hi, namespaceImportFrom in base/R/namespace.R has the following: fdef <- methods:::getGeneric(genName, impenv) The definition of getGeneric is in methods/R/RMethodUtils.R starts with: getGeneric <- ## return the definition of the function named f as a generic. ## ## If there is no definition, throws an error or returns ## NULL according to the value of

Dear R-developers: I'm trying to build a 64-bit R-patched_2006-07-24 on SunFire V40z with on Solaris OS 10 64-bit kernel and using Sun Studio 11 compilers. Everything runs OK until it gets to building package tools (all.R) where it fails. Bellow is how I tried it (I can provide any other additional info if needed). Any help please? Thank you very much Latchezar Dimitrov Wake Forest Univ.

I had the exact same problem. The only workaround is to get that folder renamed to DOS compatible characters, let comskip run through Wine, and then change the name back again. I had to change the

Woops! In my last email, I meant to say the second command was: rsync --no-whole-file --progress theFile /path/to/dest Todd Hi, My situation is that I would like to use rsync to copy very large files within my network/systems. Specifically, these files are in the order of 10-100GB. Needless to say, I would like to be able to restart a transfer if it only partially succeeded, but NOT repeat

parseNamespaceFile() doesn't seem to detect misspelled directives. Looking at its code I see switch(as.character(e[[1L]]), <lots of args omitted here>, stop(gettextf("unknown namespace directive: %s", deparse(e)), call. = FALSE, domain = NA)) but this doesn't seem to function as I expect, viz. to stop with an error if I type a wrong directive.

Hi, My situation is that I would like to use rsync to copy very large files within my network/systems. Specifically, these files are in the order of 10-100GB. Needless to say, I would like to be able to restart a transfer if it only partially succeeded, but NOT repeat the work already done.

Dear All, Please see the short script at the end of the email, which I assembled looking for bits and pieces on the web. It essentially does what I need: it plots several countries as a color-coded map. I just would like to fine-tune a bit the final image, in particular (1) Select my own colors for "painting" the countries (i.e. associate manually a color to every level) (2) Be

Dear All, Please consider the snippet at the end of the email. I often download some maps (in the R format) from http://www.gadm.org/ However, when I run (typically more than once) a variation of the script below (based on http://bit.ly/1b3W0Aa ), I often get Error in load(url(paste("http://gadm.org/data/rda/", fileName, "_adm", : cannot open the connection In

Hi all, The function call series genericForPrimitive -> .findBasicFuns -> .findAll happens 4400 times while the GenomicRanges package is loading. Each time .findAll follows a chain of environments to determine that the methods namespace is the only one that holds a variable called .BasicFunsList. This accounts for ~10% of package loading time. I'm sure there is some history to that

Hi, I found the following on Windows 2000/NT R Version 1.9.1 (2004-06-21) (also Version 1.9.0): The S4 group "Math" doesn't work as documented; i.e., "log", "log10", "gamma" and "lgamma" are included in the documentation but don't work. See example code below. Moreover, what about 'genericForPrimitive' which is used in

Hello, I am having problems with plotting to a postscript device within a function call. When I do the same thing line by line in the command line interface, I have no problems, but the function creates an empty postscript file. If I remove the dev.off() call at the end of the function, I get one of the plots (the last), but not the others. Is there any way to get around this problem, or a

Dear all, I have defined a generic as.ff(x, ...) and a method as.ff.function(x, ...) which converts a standard R function x into a chunked version operating on large ff objects. Everything works fine, but when registering S3method("as.ff",function) in NAMESPACE, the installation fails with some kind of parsing error: adding build stamp to DESCRIPTION installing NAMESPACE file
