I encountered several strange issues when linking to R.dll on Windows and I wonder if anyone of the Windows savvy-folks here had seen some of the issues before and have some explanation. My Rserve links to R dynamic library. That works perfectly on unix boxes and worked fairly well with older MinGW and older R (<=1.7.1). What I do in fact is that I specify -L$(R_HOME)/bin -lR when linking.

Some issues with the recent R-devel (rsync today) on Darwin: 1) Recent R-devel is a bit misleading concerning the R-framework installation: A new option --enable-R-framework was introduced, but install-Rframework ignores its absence (or --disable-R-framework for that matter) and tries to install the framework anyway in / which fails just after the R itself was copied into /Versions/.... I

After the recent discussion about future direction of the Mac OS X port, I was toying with the idea to make R a proper Mac OS X framework. There are several advantages: OS X locates frameworks automatically, therefore any program wishing to link against R has only to specify "-framework R" at link time. Furthermore versioning is supported, i.e. if a program is linked against R 1.7.1

Dear R users / devs, There's been requests in the past for a text editor built into the Rgui for Windows, from which code can be submitted to the R console. Something along the lines of the script editor in S-Plus. Currently Rgui can only display a file read-only in a pager. As far as I can tell there's been little motivation to implement an editor, as most developers use (the

I need to implement some external callbacks to R and I'm not happy with the current REPL, since it prevents any general solution. Are there plans to improve the current REPL anytime soon? The current approach has some deficiencies you are surely aware of (only one input (=external event loop), the loop is blocked while waiting for input in R_ReadConsole, ...). But the major problem is

Scanning various lists for R, I've noticed that a few people have raised the question of getting the "rgl" package to run in R on the Mac operating system. As far as I can tell (and I must admit to being a novice here), the problem has to do with the inclusion of the /usr/X11R6/lib in R's environment, masking one framework with another. More than one of the people commenting on

Hello. I'm writting a glx device and I've some performance problem with the eventloop registration system. The device is not refresh when there's no X event. That's problematic for animation and "smoothness" of display. Should I use threads or fork the R process to get and independant way to refresh my device ? Or do you know another way to refresh it ? Thanks

Hello Tal, You asked *When is it helpful to use interactive plots? Either for data exploration (for ourselves) and data presentation (for a "client")?* My answer: It's helpful for checking data quality, for exploration with and without "clients", for checking results, and for data presenting. Notes: (1) It's difficult to explain interactive data visualization in

Hi, I'm wondering if it is possible to install a package for R 2.0 on R 1.9.1 on Mac OS X? I'm getting this error which seems to be known issue: library("quantreg") Error in firstlib(which.lib.loc, package) : couldn't find function "lazyLoad" In addition: Warning message: package quantreg was built under R version 2.0.1 Error in

I just wrote a graphics device taking the X11 device in R-devel as a guide (I was told it's the reference device). It works perfectly with R-devel, but I just noticed that the API (e.g. the use of R_GE_gcontext) is incompatible with previous versions of R. Is the current API in R-devel set in stone or are there any further plans to change the API? (If so, how far?) Also, is there any

It seems that RAqua consumes too much cpu time when doing nothing. I can't see exactly why this is happening. We have few days to fix this up. Any idea (after having look at the code) would be fine. stefano

A while ago I compiled R 1.7.0 for AIX (with the above compiler - I'll call it xlc) and I was surprised that it went quite smoothly. Unfortunately with R 1.8.0 it's not as easy, but I succeeded at least partially. Static R works fine (after some tweaking), but --enable-R-shlib fails resp. produces a buggy R. Following are the problems I encountered (in a warning-to-fatal-error

Is there an R function that automatically writes all input and output to a file? I would at least like it to log all the commands I enter, and to preferably also write the standard output to the file as well as to the screen. (The ideal would be to write the input to one file and both the input and output to another file.) I tried R2HTML for this, but I could not get it to work consistently. I am

This email isn't asking for assistance, but I thought R-help readers would find it interesting. This week we offered a half-day introduction to R for researchers at Augsburg University. The response was astonishing. Although Augsburg has no medical faculty and no engineers, there was far too much demand, with interest from every faculty (barring theology, "for one small

Wandering in R archives, and seeing the message attached below, I noticed that: mapply(rep,times=1:4, MoreArgs=42) still segfaults on R 2.2.0, and thought I should be a good citizen and report it, even if I do not have an actual problem

I re-generated configure of the latest R-devel with autoconf 2.57 and got the following problem: configure: error: conditional "HAVE_ORBIT" was never defined. Usually this means the macro was only invoked conditionally. (resolving HAVE_ORBIT leaves us with HAVE_GNORBA causing the same problem. You should be able to reproduce it by running autoreconf (or aclocal; autoconf - not just
