similar to: DESCRIPTION.in file causes R CMD check to fail?

hi. i'm working on a package which only works if one (or both) of two libraries (Imlib2 and MagickWand) exist on the machine on which the package is compiled and executed. as currently written, the program purposely generates an error at *compile* time if neither library is available (thinking the earlier the user is notified, the less frustrating). is there a way of specifying this

hi. i was hoping to automatically set the Version: number in my package description file (image2k-package.Rd) in the man directory by using a .in file in the same directory. "R CMD build" excludes the .in file because the routine .check_package_subdirs() in QC.R (which build calls) doesn't like that file. .check_package_subdirs() also checks files in R/, and at *that* point in the

Chuck and Greg, Thanks a lot for your help! I have a much better understanding now of what is happening ?under the hood?.

hi. this is sort of a software methodology question. i'm working on developing a package (with C source code). developing it, i use autotools, git, make, and such like. as a result, there are random files in my source code directory that "R CMD check" would rather not see. some of these files (such as .git and friends) i could arrange to move to "just above" my

hi. below is a small test case (hopefully minimal, though i'm still a bit confused about initializers). i would have guessed (and maybe i still would have been right) that one could re-use the name of a generic function for functions with different numbers of arguments. in the case below, class A's bB() queries the status of a single A object, so bB(A) (where here "A" is an

Full_Name: Kimmo Uusitalo Version: 1.8.0-1 OS: Debian 3.0 "Woody" Submission from: (NULL) (128.214.205.4) r-gnome 1.8.0-1 requires gdk-imlib2 which is not available in Debian 3.0 stable. I have the following in /etc/apt/sources.list : deb http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/debian woody main Btw, it would be very nice to have the newest version of R even for Debian stable.

hi. if i'm reading correctly, "Writing R Extensions" appears to be inconsistent on the question of whether the arguments passed to a routine called via .Call() or .External() should considered read-only. section 5.2, "Interface functions .C and .Fortran", says ---- However, when character vectors are used other than in a read-only way, the .Call interface is much to be

hi. i'd like to instantiate sed(1), send it some input, and retrieve its output, all via pipes (rather than an intermediate file). my sense from pipe and looking at the sources (sys-unix.c) is that is not possible. is that true? are there any thoughts of providing such a facility? cheers, Greg

Running with Samba 3.5.4, the Samba3x packages from CentOS 5.6 with added gpfs and tsmsm VFS modules against a GPFS 3.4.0.6 file system. Unix extensions are turned off because otherwise OS X 10.5 messes with group ownership and permissions and shares for "groups" don't work as required. Unfortunately being at a University I don't get to control the environment tightly, unless

Hi, I've added kate support to liboggplay (a prerequisite to getting kate tracks to work with the mozilla plugin, which I've now got working on Linux). In addition to the Kate code: - a new oggplay-uninstalled.pc file - configure.ac checks for C++ compiler - no check for fishsound version - it wanted 0.8.0, but the svn itself was 0.7.1 !? - don't use imlib2 (nor dump-first-frame) if

Gabor, thanks. yes, managing the two-way communication is always a bit error-prone, as it depends on the input/output characteristics of the two ends -- they either match, or deadlock. it's too bad if polling is always *required* -- i'd think sometimes a programmer would be happy blocking, though other times one wants better control over when to block. cheers, Greg

Greg, I see what you mean, but on the other hand, that's not how we think about real numbers working either, and doubles have that behavior generally. It might be possible to put checks in (with a potentially non-trivial overhead cost) to disallow that kind of thing, but again R (and everyone else, I think?) doesn't do so for regular doubles. Also, I would expect the year 1e50 and the

I am not sure if `pipe()` works for this, but if it turns out that it does not, then you can use the processx package, e.g.: > p <- processx::process$new("sed", c("-l", "s/a/x/g"), stdin = "|", stdout = "|") > p$write_input("foobar\n") > p$read_output() [1] "foobxr\n" The `-l` sed flag is to make sed line-buffered,

Hello all, I am trying to get a better understanding of the underlying code for the stats::dpois function in R and, specifically, what happens under the hood when it is called. I finally managed to track down the C course at: https://github.com/wch/r-source/blob/trunk/src/nmath/dpois.c. It would seem that the dpois C function is taking a double for each of the x and lambda arguments so I am a bit

Hi, this patch adds: - kate support (what else) - this bumps the Javascript API to 1.1 - a few build fixes (note that the adding of -L/usr/X11/lib -lX11 looks suspect to me, that shouldn't be needed, so you may want to leave it out if you think so as well - it's odd as X11 using programs do configure fine on that box) - bad pointer dereference fix (mouse callback) - avoid the input
