similar to: A warning in gzcon but not in gzfile

The `gzcon` function both modifies and copies a connection object: # compressed text con1 <- url("http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/datasets/csb/ch12.dat.gz") con2 <- gzcon(con1) # almost indistinguishable con1==con2 identical(summary(con2), summary(con1)) # both support gzip readLines(con1, n = 3) readLines(con2, n = 3) # opening one opens both isOpen(con2)

I wrote some code which reads a gzipped text file directly from the web with gzcon(url()) and it works perfectly on OSX, but I cannot get it to work on linux at all, trying several different R versions and linux distributions. Any ideas? Here's an example of my code: z <- gzcon(url("ftp://ftp-private.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubchem/.fetch/8897497837079742771.sdf.gz")) sdf <-

Hello, If repeated calls are made to save() using the same pre-opened gzfile connection to a file, and then the connection is closed, the objects saved by the second and subsequent calls are not correctly restored by repeated calls to load() with a new gzfile connection to the same file. What follows are a session exposing the bugs, analysis (see ANALYSIS), patches (see PATCHES), and a session

Hi all, I am trying to download, decompress and read a csv file. My code: myurl <- "ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/pub/geo/DATA/supplementary/series/GSE24729/GSE24729_MitoNuclear_suppl_male_stats.csv.gz" # myfile <- "GSE24729_MitoNuclear_suppl_male_stats.csv.gz" # download.file(myurl, destfile=myfile, mode="w") # mycon <- gzcon(gzfile(myfile,

Hi All, I think there is a memory error in the libcurl connection code that typically happens when libcurl reads big chunks of data. This potentially affects all code that use url() with the libcurl download method, which is the default in most builds. In practice it tends to happen more with HTTP/2 and if the connection is wrapped into a gzcon(). macOS Catalina has a libcurl build with HTTP/2

I use feedtools to generate the feeds and read them,and now they can not work well: This is the code for feed generating: class FeedsController < ApplicationController def userrss @user = User.find_by_id(params[:id]) @articles = @user.articles(:all,:order => ''updated_at desc'') @headers["Content-Type"] = "application/xml; charset=utf-8"

I need to decompress an array of bytes that were compressed using zlib. The bytes are stored within a binary file. I can seek to the location, read the length of the compressed byte array, and read the bytes into R. What I need to do then is decompress the byte array to an array of doubles. The code looks something like this: compresslength = readBin(infile, integer(), 1, 4) data =

Hello, I am trying to access several netCDF files that are also zipped (via gzip I guess) (and stored in a directory that I only have reading permit) I tried to unzip them using gzfile, gzcon, etc, and then open them with open.ncdf (from ncdf package). Everything was unsuccesful. I had no problem using the ncdf package with "normal" netCDF files I would really appreciate any

Hi Sorry, I am clearly missing something here. I want to read this file directly: ftp://ftp.sanger.ac.uk/pub/mirbase/targets/v5/arch.v5.txt.gallus_gallus. zip I tried using read.table(gzfile("ftp://ftp.sanger.ac.uk/pub/mirbase/targets/v5/arch.v5 .txt.gallus_gallus.zip")) But I got an error: Error in open.connection(file, "r") : cannot open the connection In addition:

Many thanks to the R core team for their work on R connections. I was delighted to discover that it is now possible to remote-control R-1.3.0 via a socket connection - something which Brian Ripley noted was not yet possible with R-1.2.0 back in January 2001 in the first R News newsletter. How? Just substitute source() for readLines() in last few lines of the example for a socket connection given

Dear All, I'd like to be able to have R store (in a list component) a compressed data set, and then write it out uncompressed. gzcon and gzfile work in exactly the opposite direction. What would be a good way to handle this? Details: ---------- We have a package that uses C; part of the C output is a large sparse matrix. This is never manipulated directly by R, but always by the C code.

I find that if start R-2.6.0 in a workspace with no .RData file, load one of my workspaces from R-2.5.1 or earlier into R-2.6.0, and then before doing anything else type postscript(file="z.ps"), I get:: > ls() character(0) > load(url("http://www.maths.anu.edu.au/~johnm/r/test5.RData")) > postscript(file="z.ps") Error in postscript(file = "z.ps")

Hi all, I have to call R from PHP code. I manage to run R and to make it parse my script (see below) but I have an error which I cannot cope with yet while running the PHP page: Error in file("/home/faisnel/Rscripts/testphp2.Rout", open = "wt") : unable to open connection In addition: Warning message: cannot open file `/home/faisnel/Rscripts/testphp2.Rout' Execution

Hi, I am making multiple calls to gzfile() via read.table(), e.g. > x <- read.table( gzfile( "xxx.gz" ) ) After i do this many times (I haven't counted, but probably between 50 and 100 times) I get the error message: Error in open.connection(file, "r") : unable to open connection In addition: Warning message: cannot open compressed file 'xxx.gz' however, I

Hi, I have some text files that do not have trailing \n on the last (incomplete) line; how do I read in the last line? e.g. here is a test case: [linux + R version 2.6.1 (2007-11-26) ] z <- gzfile("short.gz", open="w") cat("7\n5\n3", file=z) close(z) z <- gzfile('short.gz') readLines(z) [1] "7" "5" readLines would indicate that

Found the simpliest way of seeing I bug I encountered doing "R CMD check --use-gct": Just launch R (with --vanilla), and do this: > ?gctorture # this work > gctorture() > ?gctorture Error in gzfile(file, "rb") : can only weakly reference/finalize reference objects # this does not It seems that when gctorture() is on gzfile() doesn't work.

Hi, I get an "internal error" when calling seek() twice on a gzfile connection. Create a gzip file: bigraw <- sample(charToRaw("abcdef"), 30000000, replace=TRUE) save(bigraw, file="bigraw.rda") Open it: con <- gzfile("bigraw.rda", "rb") Then: > seek(con, where=1) [1] 0 > seek(con, where=24980000) [1] 1
