similar to: R stops responding/communicating in for loop (lengthy description of issue)

I have recently been using writeChar and writeBin to write binary files. These functions makes it very easy to write OS-independent files, which I am very happy with. I have however found a few issues, best illustrated by a short example > con <- file("test", open = "wb") > writeChar(as.character(c("ab", "ab")), nchars = c(3), con = con,

Is there any way to write (8-bit) bytes to a file which works on all [R] platforms? I have been looking at 1) writeBin 2) writeChar 3) cat and neither of them manage to write arbitrary sequences of bytes (0-255). For instance, I would like to create a binary file of length three containing the bytes 0, 1 and 0. I [R] I have the following vector of bytes: bfr <- c(0,1,0) 1) For

I'd spent hours with Google trying to find how to control a separate software package from R via a UDP interface (I could run the package under a "system" command, but that was too slow). I finally figured out a way to communicate with UDP through R, and it works fine (using the "system" command) - it's also fast. (1) install software "socat" (available

Hello. I am migrating my servers to Ubuntu and have been having an issue with Dovecot authenticator service. Exim is set up to use dovecot-auth, anticipating the question whether exim binary was compiled with support of Dovecot authenticator, it was: --- # exim -bV Exim version 4.86_2 #1 built 05-Apr-2016 12:21:41 Copyright (c) University of Cambridge, 1995 - 2015 (c) The Exim Maintainers and

Greetings guRus -- I have successfully queried a large (24,445 rows by 281 cols.) in-house database using the following RODBC query (without the line breaks) testout <- sqlQuery(channel, "select idSchedule,EXCL_Total from dbo.vwC1198_2006_RawData_With_CMPL_EXCL") This returns a dataframe of 24445 rows and two columns (as intended), but the following command testout

Full_Name: Johnny Accot Version: 1.5.1 OS: Linux Submission from: (NULL) (198.4.83.52) Hi. I'm having a problem with the binary read/write functions. I'm writing a device driver in R (why not?) and of course I have to send a couple commands to the device. Typically, I send one byte, receive one acknowledgement byte, send another byte, receive an ACK, and so on. At least this is what

Dear -r-helpers, I'm trying to get my students to use odfWeave. Windows users are having trouble. I would appreciate advice. Comment 1: Hello I have spent a while today trying to get odfWeave to be successful I installed the unzip and zip program but it has not changed the error message.I have copied the error message below but I am sure it is the one others have experienced. >

This may be a newbie question - although I did search for this error message in the archives and via google and didn't see this error: The help page for "scan" indicates that among the types of data capable of being read are: > "The supported types are 'logical', 'integer', 'numeric', 'complex', 'character', 'raw' and

hi,R users: I have such a text num = 3 testco = 12 testno = 1;12;3 infp = test1;test2;test3 How can I read this text by readLines? [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, Here's a patch to the readChar manual page (R-trunk as of today) that better clarifies readChar's return value. It could use some work as I'd also like to add some text about using nchar() to find the length of the string that readchar() returns, but I'm unsure which of type="bytes" or type="chars" to mention. Is it type="chars"? Index:

Trying to copy the (binary) header of a input file directly to an output file, I've had repeatable seg faults. The call: writeChar(hdr, outfh, nchars=6144) when hdr just contains one empty string seems to be the culprit. The stack traces weren't all that illuminating, with sig 11 in memory-related functions following this. But in src/main/connections.c it looks like do_writechar

Is this possible? I've tried both writeChar() and writeBin() to no avail. My goal is to serialize(ascii=FALSE) an object to a connection but determine the size of the serialized object before hand: sobject <- serialize(object,NULL,ascii=FALSE) len <- nchar(sobject) # # run some code here to notify listener on other end of connection # how many bytes I'm getting ready to send #

hi, i've been running Exim & Dovecot together on the same box. Exim's been sharing Dovecot/SASL auth info over a local unix socket. works great. i'm now splitting Exim & Dovecot onto two different boxes. iiuc, Dovecot ONLY provides a UNIX (local) socket; *not* a TCP socket for over-the-network access. SUre, I could mount the Dovecot socket's volume over NFS ... but

Hi David,Thank you for the example.When I try to use the cat function, I get an error cat(attr<-getAttractors(net, type="asynchronous"))Error in cat(attr <- getAttractors(net, type = "asynchronous")) : argument 1 (type 'pairlist') cannot be handled by 'cat' Please let me know, if I have used the function in right way?. Thank you Priya ?

No. You have not used it correctly. It was an example. Put your commands between the two sink functions. That will save any printed out put that results from those commands. It will not save attr, but you did not ask how to do that. David C On Nov 1, 2017 12:21 PM, Priya Arasu <galaxie2485 at yahoo.co.in> wrote: Hi David, Thank you for the example.

Hello, I have an input file: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/file/n3700031/testOut.txt testOut.txt where col 1 is chromosome, column2 is start of region, column 3 is end of region, column 4 and 5 is base position, column 6 is total reads, column 7 is methylation data, and column 8 is the strand. I would like a summary output file such as:

Thanks to all who have responded. My concern was to be able to write a csv file that can have line feeds in string columns chr(10). Why? Excel allows line feeds chr(10) within cells and line breaks chr(13)+chr(10) at line ending, but the windows version of R automatically replaces \n by \r\n in writing and \r\n by \n in reading (text mode). The clues for a solution came from Brian Ripley and
