Hi, The cleanup_pkg() function defined the big tools:::.build_packages() function in tools/R/build.R is currently broken. When Makefiles are used cleanup_pkg() doesn't clean anything because of the way system2() is called. For example, the call to Ssystem() on line 304 (Ssystem is a silent version of system2) is basically trying to do this: >

Hi, According to its man page substring() "expands (its) arguments cyclically to the length of the longest _provided_ none are of zero length". So, as expected, I get an error here: > substring("abcd", first=2L, last=integer(0)) Error in substring("abcd", first = 2L, last = integer(0)) : invalid substring argument(s) But I don't get one here:

Hi, The following code produces different kinds of problems depending on which platform you run it: x <- as.list(1:200000) names(x) <- paste("A", 1:200000, sep="") e <- list2env(x) Timeout on Linux, crash on Mac and Windows, with R 2.12.0 and current R devel. The "multi-assign" mode (i.e. when the 'envir' arg is supplied) doesn't seem

I get this (with R-2.12 and R-2.13, didn't try with earlier versions): > max(c(NaN, NA)) [1] NA > max(c(NA, NaN)) [1] NaN I get the same thing with min(). The fact that the result of 'max(x)' or 'min(x)' depends on the order of the elements in 'x' is surprising. It also seems to contradict the man page: By definition the min/max of a numeric vector

Hi, 'R CMD build' (with R 2.12.0 RC) fails to clean the src/ folder on Windows: D:\biocbld\bbs-2.7-bioc>ls meat/BUS/src BUS.cpp BUS.h D:\biocbld\bbs-2.7-bioc>R\bin\R CMD build meat\BUS * checking for file 'meat\BUS/DESCRIPTION' ...

Hevr? told me that people from Bioconductor and possibly others are keeping an eye on this thread so it would be good to post a note here too. As of version 4.0.0, the official R for Windows and binary packages provided via CRAN are built with gcc-8.3.0 from rtools40, as shown in the CRAN check table: https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_flavors.html Instructions and installers for

Hi, Today we've seen the following problem with the R-2.12 that we use for our Windows builds: > installed.packages() Error: subscript out of bounds After some investigation we discovered that the cause of this failure was that 1 of the 890 packages currently installed on the machine (Windows Server 2003 R2) had its DESCRIPTION file empty:

Hi, When 'x' is a vector of doubles, it's not clear how 'factor(x)' compares its values in order to determine the levels. For example, here all the values in 'x' are "conceptually" the same: x <- c(11/3, 2/3 + 4/3 + 5/3, 50 + 11/3 - 50, 7.00001 - 1000003/300000) However, due to machine rounding errors, they are not

Hi, On both Unix and Windows there is a mechanism to add variables to the environment when R is started. I noticed that, on Unix, this mechanism is not used when R is started normally at the command line but only when it's started using the 'R CMD' syntax. One problem with this is some lack of consistent cross-platform behaviour. For example: On Linux: $ echo $TEXINPUTS $

Hi, Already reported here: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2010-September/058636.html but it doesn't seem to be related (at least not in an obvious way) to the problems described in that previous thread. So the problem is that, with recent versions of R 2.12 (i.e. current R-alpha but I've observed this with R-devel for at least 2-3 months now), 'R CMD build

Hi, Currently object.size() is not very useful on environments as it always returns 56 bytes, no matter how big the environment is: env1 <- new.env() object.size(env1) # 56 bytes env2 <- new.env(hash=TRUE, size=75000000L) object.size(env2) # 56 bytes env3 <- list2env(list(a=runif(25000000), L=LETTERS)) object.size(env3) # 56 bytes This makes it pretty useless on

Fine with me as long as eliminating the inconveniences associated with it can be put on the roadmap. The alias instability and the fact that the user has no way to know if s/he should do ?`foo,numeric-method` or ?`foo,numeric,ANY-method` to find the method has been a long-standing problem. H.

by() does not always return a list. In Gabe's example, it returns an integer, thus it is coerced to a list. as.list() means that it should be a VECSXP, not necessarily with "list" in the class attribute.

Huge thanks to you (Jeroen) and R-core for doing this. I wasn't involved with this directly but I know it was a pretty seriously heavy list so well done all around! ~G On Tue, Apr 28, 2020, 11:04 AM Herv?

Hi Michael, Thanks for looking into this. I suspect that truncation of ANY suffixes from method signatures is also the culprit behind the sudden breakage of aliases of the form \alias{foo,numeric-method} when a method without the ANY suffix in its signature gets added to the ecosystem. See my post about this to the Bioc-devel mailing list a couple of months ago:

Not sure why the performance penalty of nonstandard evaluation would be more of a concern here than for something like switch(). If that can't/won't be fixed, what about fixing the man page so it's in sync with the current behavior? Thanks, H.

Hi, The following error message misspells the name of the 'dim' argument: > array(integer(0), dim=integer(0)) Error in array(integer(0), dim = integer(0)) : 'dims' cannot be of length 0 The name of the argument is 'dim' not 'dims': > args(array) function (data = NA, dim = length(data), dimnames = NULL) NULL Cheers, H. -- Herv?
