Hello, WRE contains the following information about the "exec" subdirectory of a package : "Subdirectory exec could contain additional executables the package needs, typically scripts for interpreters such as the shell, Perl, or Tcl. This mechanism is currently used only by a very few packages, and still experimental." I think it would be useful to expand "very

Hi, Would it be possible to add the capability for functions to register how they would like to complete themselves. Currently, there is the .addFunctionInfo, but it allows only functions to register a static list of potential completions, I was thinking of a way to register not a fixed list of possible completions, but a __function__ that would calculate completions dynamically. This could

Hello, I'm trying to get S4 dispatch on S3 "connection" objects. So I do : setOldClass( "connection" ) and then : setGeneric( "bling", function(object) standardGeneric( "bling" ) ) setMethod( "bling", "connection", function(object) cat( "gotcha ", as.integer(object), "\n" ) ) but I get : f <- file(

Hello, I very much enjoy "with" and "subset" semantics for data frames and was wondering if we could have something similar with split, basically by evaluating the second argument "with" the data frame : split.data.frame function(x, f, drop = FALSE, ...){ call <- match.call( ) fcall <- call( "with", data = call[["x"]],

Hello, Is it possible to have the effect of UserDefinedDatabase outside of "attached" environments ? Can I disguise an environment of the sys.frames() as a UserDefinedDatabase ? This seems to suggest that it might be possible : > f <- function(){ e <- environment(); class(e) <- "UserDefinedDatabase"; ff } > f() *** caught segfault *** address (nil),

Hello, Today, Brian Ripley commited the revision 50000 of R's svn repository. I took this as an opportunity to do some data analysis of the log and posted some code and graphics on my blog: http://romainfrancois.blog.free.fr/index.php?post/2009/10/09/celebrating-R-commit-50000 The plots of the number of commits per day (and per month) indicates a peak in 2002.

Hello, As this little program illustrates, duplicating a STRSXP does not seem deep enough. require( inline ) fx <- cfunction( signature( x = "character"), ' SEXP y = PROTECT( duplicate( x ) ); int n = LENGTH(x); int nc = 0 ; char* p = 0 ; for( int i=0; i<n; i++){ p = (char*)( CHAR( STRING_ELT( y , i ) ) ); nc = strlen( p ) ; for( int j=0; j<nc; j++){ p[j] =

Hello, Using R-devel (rev 53950), I get inconsistent results with as.environment( VECSXP ) when gctorture is on. Consider: a <- list( aa = rnorm, bb = runif ) gctorture(TRUE) as.environment( a ) The last line sometimes produces the correct environment, but sometimes I get errors. Here are the three situations: # good > as.environment( a ) <environment: 0x100b1c978> # not good

I admit that I've not done a thorough search on this topic, but from the several instructional manuals and/or tutorials I've looked at, I don't see any mention of relational database capabilities in R? Have I missed something, and if so, can someone point me in the right direction to get started? Thanks! Jim Bouldin, PhD Research Ecologist Department of Plant Sciences, UC Davis

Hi, In R command line, when I type "help(something)", it will always show the help in the different mode such that I don't see command lines anymore but just the help document. If I quit from the help mode, I will only see the command lines by not the help document. I would like the help document and command lines be show in the same mode. I'm wondering how to do so. Regards,

Hi, In Rcpp, we now have a "Function" class to encapsulate functions (they cover all three kinds, but this may change). To call the function, what we do is generate a call with the function as the first node and then evaluate the call. SEXP stats = PROTECT( R_FindNamespace( mkString( "stats") ) ); SEXP rnorm = PROTECT( findVarInFrame( stats, install( "rnorm") ) )

Hello, I'm looking for examples of how to handle serialization of external pointers. We use external pointers intensively in Rcpp for modules and one popular request is to have persistence. And I guess we need to be able to serialize/deserialize external pointers for this. Also, module objects are all instances of reference classes, so maybe that can be handled at the R level ? Romain

Hello, Based on yesterday's R-help thread (help: program efficiency), and following Bill's suggestions, it appeared that sequence: > sequence function (nvec) unlist(lapply(nvec, seq_len)) <environment: namespace:base> could benefit from being written in C to avoid unnecessary memory allocations.
