Hi, I've got some questions regarding finalizers registered using reg.finalizer(). I have a setup where in certain cases I wish to set a new finalizer to an object that already got one. Since there is no API for removing/replacing already registered finalizers (have been "requested" previously on this list), I have basically just added a new finalizer by calling reg.finalizer() a

Hi, TL;DR ----- I define the path /cm/shared/apps/R/site-library/3.4.2 and add it to libPath. Why does libPath then display it as /cm/shared/apps/R/site-library/3.4 ? Long version ------------ I run a cluster of diskless nodes for which the OS is loaded directly into RAM and other software is provided by an NFS server. However, in the case of R, we use the R version provided

Hi, Back in June I posted the message below, but had no replies. I've made a little progress since then so this is to update anyone interested (!) and to ask for comments. Brief problem statement: Under Windows, some parts of R don't handle UNC paths beginning with backslashes. Specifically a) Sys.glob() fails to find some files breaking (e.g.) Rcmdr plugins

Hello, I'm having some trouble trying to set the .libPaths() on Windows 7, R-2.15.0 and R-2.15.1. The environment variables R_LIBS and R_LIBS_USER are set according to the help page for .libPaths() and the Rprofile.site file has the default setting, as shown below. R-2.14.1 recognizes the lib paths but not R-2.15. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? (I've also tried with

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi I am sure I am missing something really basic, but I can't figure it out. I want to start R so that I can specify the location for the Library tree. In principel simple: As I only want it dependent on the directory I stat R in, I put a .Rprofile file in the directory. My default path is: > .libPaths() [1]

Works for me. Which shell are you using? Are you setting .libPaths elsewhere? Peter-Dalgaards-MacBook-Air:F pd$ R_LIBS=~/tmp Rscript -e '.libPaths()' [1] "/Users/pd/tmp" [2] "/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.2/Resources/library" Peter-Dalgaards-MacBook-Air:F pd$ export R_LIBS=~/tmp

Hello I use the function .libPaths() > .libPaths() [1] "/usr/local/lib/R/library" > .libPaths(c("/usr/local/lib/myRlib","/usr/local/lib/library")) > .libPaths() [1] "/usr/local/lib/R/library" but it simply does not pick up the new path. Can anybody help? (The problem originates from the inability to install packages into

Does R have a standard function that takes two file paths (e.g., "./myDirectory/file" and "myDirectory/file") and returns TRUE if those paths refer to the same file? The paths make take different routes ("absolute" or relative paths or via different symbolic or hard links) to the same file or may use different naming conventions (Windows or DOS 8.3 on Windows). If

High, on all of my computers the first entry in libPaths for root was /usr/lib64/R/library or /usr/lib/R/library.

I'm having an issue with occasionally slow-running calls to normalizePath. If the path is a non-existent UNC path, then normalizePath sometimes takes 6 or 7 seconds to run, rather than its usual few microseconds. My big problem is that I can't reliably reproduce this across machines. The example below generates one or two slow runs out of 10000 on my Windows machine. I haven't been

I used to have the following in my .Rprofile: if (length(.libPaths())==1) .libPaths(paste(Sys.getenv("HOME"),"/Library/R/",paste(R.version$major,as.integer(R.version$minor),sep='.'),"/library",sep='')) -- and it added my user-defined library directory. Then I installed packages there, so during an upgrade, I'd know exactly which packages I

You misunderstand what .libPaths does: it changes the path in the current session only. Installation uses a different R process. Set R_LIBS to change the library path for new sessions: see ?.libPath . On 18/02/2016 07:00, Dario Strbenac wrote: > Good day, > > If the library path is changed with .libPaths, the command > >

Good day, I believe from the documentation that folders in R_LIBS should appear in the output of .libPaths, but they do not. The documentation contains "The library search path is initialized at startup from the environment variable R_LIBS ..." However, $ export R_LIBS=/users/stgrad/dario/tmp/ $ Rscript -e ".libPaths()" [1] "/dskh/nobackup/biostat/Bioconductor"

Reproducible example: dir.create("test") .libPaths("test") install.packages("relations", type = "source") Fails with: ... * installing *source* package ?relations? ... ... ** testing if installed package can be loaded *** arch - i386 Error : package ?sets? required by ?relations? could not be found Error: loading failed Execution halted *** arch - x86_64

I have not intentionally set R_LIBS_USER. I looked for an Renviron.site file but did not see it in R/etc or my home directory. The strange part is that if I print Sud.getenv I see a value for R_LIBS_USER. However, this directory is not showing under libPaths. I though .libPaths should contain R_LIBS_USER. I also noticed that R related variables are not in the system or user variables because I

Dear list, I?m using R embedded in another program (coded in tcl/tk) under Windows Vista. In this context I don?t launch Rgui.exe but rather Rtem.exe. Now I have a problem finding libraries not specifically installed as administrator (and which are not in the path ?program files? but in Contacts\Documents of the current user). To be precise, the user launching my tcl/tk program can?t find
