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, 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

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' ...

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, 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

"nana" is meant to express "NA, really NA". Your suggestion sounds good.

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 $

(a) In R 2.12.2 rowsum can overflow if given an integer input: > rowsum(c(2e9L, 2e9L), c("a", "a")) [,1] a -294967296 > 2^32 + .Last.value [,1] a 4e+09 Should it be changed to coerce its x argument to numeric (double precision) so it always returns a numeric output? (b) When rowsum is given an x containing both NaN and NA it appears to use the last

Hello R-devel, Best wishes in the new year. I am writing to kindly request new R function so NA_real_ can be more easily detected. Currently if one wants to test for NA_real_ (but not NaN) then extra work has to be done: `is.na(x) & !is.nan(x)` Required functionality is already at C level so to address my request there is not that much to do. Kevin Ushey made a nice summary of current R C api

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, 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, Trying to access files on the ftp server at ftp.ncbi.nih.gov will either give a time out or sometimes even a segfault on Linux.

Hi list, This looks similar to the problem reported here https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2006-April/037199.html by Henrik Bengtsson a long time ago. It is very sporadic and non-reproducible. Henrik, do you remember if your code was using reg.finalizer()? I tend to suspect it but I'm not sure. I've been hunting this bug for months but today, and we the help of other Bioconductor

Hi, table1D() below can be up to 60x faster than base::table() for the 1D case. Here are the detailed speedups compared to base::table(). o With a logical vector of length 5M: 11x faster (or more if 'useNA="always"') o With factor/integer/numeric/character of length 1M and 9 levels (or 9 distinct values for non-factors):

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, I just realized that a named empty list is displayed the same way as an empty list: > list(aa=2:5)[0] list() > list() list() For empty atomic vectors, the print method makes the difference: > c(aa=3L)[0] named integer(0) > integer(0) integer(0) Maybe lists could do that too?
