Thank you for your reply Jiefei. I think in theory your solution should work. I'll have to give them a try.

Hi Morgan, My solutions might not be the best one(I believe it's not), but it should work for your question. 1. Have you considered Rf_duplicate function? If you want to change the value of `a` and reset it later, you have to have a duplication somewhere for resetting it. Instead of changing the value of `a` directly, why not changing the value of a duplicated `a`? So you do not have to

R community, As you may know, R's iconv doesn't work well converting to and from encodings that allow embedded nulls. For example > iconv("foo", to="UTF-16") Error in iconv("foo", to = "UTF-16") : embedded nul in string: '\xff\xfef\0o\0o\0' However, I don't believe embedded nulls are at issue here, but rather that R's iconv

Hi, A common idiom in the R sources is to convert objects between LANGSXP and LISTSXP by using SET_TYPEOF. However, this is soon going to be disallowed in packages. From what I can see, there isn't currently a direct way to convert between these two object types using the available API. At the R level, one can convert calls to pairlists with: >

Hello, I?m experimenting with ALTREP and was wondering if there is a preferred way to create an ALTREP wrapper vector without using .Internal(wrap_meta(?)), which R CMD check doesn?t like since it uses an .Internal() function. I was trying to create a factor that used an ALTREP integer, but attempting to set the class and levels attributes always ended up duplicating and materializing the

Hello, I have two related ALTREP questions. It seems like there is no way to assign attributes to an ALTREP vector without using C++ code. To be more specifically, I want to make an ALTREP matrix, I have tried the following R code but none of them work. ``` .Internal(inspect(1:6)) .Internal(inspect(matrix(1:6, 2,3))) .Internal(inspect(as.matrix(1:6))) .Internal(inspect(structure(1:6, dim =

Hi Jiefei and Kylie, Great to see people engaging with the ALTREP framework and identifying places we may need more tooling. Comments inline.

Hi, ?pairlist gives no explanation about what exactly is the difference between a pairlist and a list (except that a pairlist of length 0 is 'NULL'). So, what's a pairlist? class(.Options) [1] "pairlist" Some strange things about the "pairlist" type: > showClass("pairlist") Error in getClass(Class) : "pairlist" is not a defined class

Full_Name: David Bauer Version: 1.9 OS: Linux Submission from: (NULL) (160.91.245.8) In the file gram.y, the xxsubscript function generates a LANGSXP with another LANGSXP as its CDR. I believe that this is a mistake and that the second LANGSXP should be a LISTSXP. The inputs a1, a3 are parameters to the subscript function (a2), and as such they should be in a dotted-pair list.

Hi, Starting with ordinary vectors, so we know what to expect: > mapply(function(x, y) {x * y}, 101:106, rep(1:3, 2)) [1] 101 204 309 104 210 318 > mapply(function(x, y) {x * y}, 101:106, 1:3) [1] 101 204 309 104 210 318 Now with an S4 object: setClass("A", representation(aa="integer")) a <- new("A", aa=101:106) > length(a)

Hello, I am writing an R/Go interoperability tool[1] that work similarly to Rcpp; the tool takes packages written in Go and performs the necessary Go type analysis to wrap the Go code with C and R shims that allow the Go code to then be called from R. The system is largely complete (with the exception of having a clean approach to handling generalised attributes in the easy case[2] - the less

dear people, i need to code a function in C working in R and receives two R SEXP objects as parameters, where one is a list and another is a vector of integers: void f(SEXP list, SEXP vector) { ... return list; } and it should return the given list with the integer vector concatenated at the end (as the last element of the list). the list can be really big so i would not like to create a

The survival package, like many others, has several helper functions that are not declared in the namespace, since their only use is to be called by other "main" functions of the package.? This works well since the functions in the survival namespace can see them --- without ::: arguments --- and others don't. Until a situation I ran into this week, for which I solicit comments

Hi all, I have a C function, say Cfun, that calls Lapack's DGEMM routine and I need to create a shared library to use Cfun inside R. The C file is the following #include<stdio.h> #include<R.h> #include<R_ext/Lapack.h> void Cfun(double *res, double *X, int *n, int *q) { char *ptr_TRANSA, TRANSA='T', *ptr_TRANSB, TRANSB='N'; ptr_TRANSA=&TRANSA;

Background: I have an algorithm which produces a large number of small polygons (of the spatial kind) which I would like to use within R using objects from sp. I can't predict the exact number of polygons a-priori, the polygons will be grouped into regions, and each region will be filled sequentially, so an appropriate C++ 'framework' (for the point of illustration) might be: typedef

Hi, everyone. I'm trying to debug an R-module, written in C, and I'm using gdb for this. How can I print "standard" R objects from within C code? BTW, I'm familiar with the advice to use R_PV given in Writing R Extensions, but it's not working for me. E.g., I get (gdb) p R_PV(x) $1 = void and yet (gdb) p *x $2 = {sxpinfo = {type = 16, obj = 0, named = 0, gp = 0,

Hi, I'm Ryo Ota. I'm using LLVM 3.8.1. I have a quesion about inlining function in C++ API. I'd like to inline some functions in a module in the same way as `opt -inline` command. But my C++ code didn't work what I want to do. For example, by using `opt -inline` command,`main.ll` is converted into the `inlined.ll`(`opt` command worked what I want to do) [main.ll (Not inlined)]

Benjamin, You happened to send a link which points to the OP's own package :) I think Jiefei would like to know how one can "officially" determine if an arbitrary ALTERP object belongs to a class that he owns.

I am grateful for the advice of Douglas Bates on my earlier problem in making R-0.62.1, but I'm afraid I'm still having problems.... I have been installing the various updates to R for quite some time on my alpha, and it is only now that I have been having really severe problems. The three or 4 versions before 0.61.1 installed without error. For 0.61.1 I needed to install GNU make. For
