Can someone please add documentation for that environment variable to Writing R Extensions? An appropriate place would be section https://cloud.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-exts.html#Suggested-packages which already discusses _R_CHECK_DEPENDS_ONLY_=true [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I have no idea where I must R CMD build... I am using Windows 7 wiht pearl installed http://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-patched/library/utils/html/PkgUtils.html its completely unclear for me ... sorry Knut

Dear R-devel, I did a systematic comparison of write.csv with similar functions, and observed two asymptotic inefficiencies that could be improved. 1. write.csv is quadratic time (N^2) in the number of columns N. Can write.csv be improved to use a linear time algorithm, so it can handle CSV files with larger numbers of columns? For more details including figures and session info, please see

Does anyone have comments on the new wording here? Suggested: The Title field should be in title case. Current version is: (xxx) In title case this would be: (Xxx) Hoping R core will see this here and magically adopt it, otherwise I'll try posting it to the r bugs site ... =================================================================== --- src/library/tools/R/QC.R (revision

Full_Name: Martin C. Martin Version: 2.7.1 OS: Ubuntu Submission from: (NULL) (75.150.115.86) The function write.arff, in the foreign library: - Can produce relation names with invalid characters - Doesn't use colnames() for attribute names when writing a matrix. Here's a better version: write.arff <- function (x, file, eol = "\n") { if (file == "")

Hi all, (and especially hi to Tomas Kalibera who accepted my patch sent yesterday) I believe that I have found another bug, this time in the substring function. The use case that I am concerned with is when there is a single (character scalar) text/subject, and many substrings to extract. For example substring("AAAA", 1:4, 1:4) or more generally, N=1000

Hi R-core, I was wondering if somebody could please add jsslogo.jpg to the R sources? (as I reported yesterday in this bug) https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17687 R already includes jss.cls which is the document class file for Journal of Statistical Software. Actually, for the jss.cls file to be useful, it also requires jsslogo.jpg in order to compile JSS articles without

Dear R-devel, I am running mclapply with many iterations over a function that modifies nothing and makes no copies of anything. It is taking up a lot of memory, so it seems to me like this is a bug. Should I post this to bugs.r-project.org? A minimal reproducible example can be obtained by first starting a memory monitoring program such as htop, and then executing the following code while

Hi all, I'm getting the following error from substring: > substr("<I>Jens Oehlschl\xe4gel-Akiyoshi", 1, 100) Error in substr("<I>Jens Oehlschl\xe4gel-Akiyoshi", 1, 100) : invalid multibyte string at '<e4>gel-A<6b>iyoshi' Is that normal / intended? I've tried setting the Encoding/locale to Latin-1/UTF-8 but that does not help. nchar

Hi guRus, i'm running R-2.15.1 and the R CMD CHECK output appears to have changed substantially, in that instead of pointing me to the offending functions or files, I get lots of 'call sequence' traces as below. I've been using R CMD CHECK for years & never seen anything like this before. This is on a pretty fresh OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion installation, where I installed R from

Dear all When comparing sQuote("text") and dQuote("text") on MacOS X and Linux FC4 I get an inconsistent behavior (using the new release version R-2.6.0): sQuote: On Mac I get the correct result "'text'", but on FC4 the incorrect result "`text?". dQuote: On Mac I get the correct result "\"text\"", but on FC4 the incorrect

Thanks for the quick response Ivan. readLines with encoding='latin1' works for me (on Ubuntu). However I was more concerned with the inconsistency in results between substr and regexpr. I was expecting that if one of them errors because of an unknown encoding then the other should as well. Even better, if regexpr works, why shouldn't substr work as well? Incidentally the analogous

I've had a lot of requests for additions to the reproducible research task view that fall into a grey area (to me at least). For example, roxygen2 is a tool that broadly enable reproducibility but I see it more as a tool for better programming. I'm about to check in a new version of the task view that includes packrat and checkpoint, as they seem closer to reproducible research, but also

Hi Toby, As Gabor pointed out the place where the various levers R CMD check supports is in the R-internals manual, but there is a link directly to that section in https://cloud.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-exts.html#Checking-packages It could perhaps be more prominent, perhaps by moving the paragraph that appears in to before the detailed list of exact tests that are performed?

Dear R-devs, Scenario: When checking a package via `R CMD check package_tar.ball`, required / suggested packages may be missing. R subsequently returns a list of packages that are missing (delimited by spaces). Example: ``` R CMD check glmSparseNet_0.99.13.tar.gz * using log directory '/home/ubuntu/Bioconductor/glmSparseNet.Rcheck' * using R Under development (unstable) (2018-06-06

I am the author of R package animint which uses testthat for unit tests. This means that there is a single test file (animint/tests/testthat.R) and during R CMD check we will see the following output * checking tests ... Running ?testthat.R? I run these tests on Travis, which has a policy that if no output is received after 10 minutes, it will kill the check. Because animint's testthat

If anybody else has this issue, please add a comment on https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17478 so we are more likely to get R-core to address this.

Yes, it's this one, thank you for providing the link. Surprisingly, a very cursory check of 100 packages most downloaded from cloud.r-project.org in the last month
