I need to access some internal function of a package temporarily. These functions normally that are not visible outside of the package. I know the MyPackage:::myfunction mechanism, but that does not solve my problem. Instead, I need to add the "internal namespace" of the package to the search path, then I can run a few commands with these functions available, and then the internal

Dear R-users, I am having some issues with a package I am working on (using R 2.12.1 in a Linux environment) and would like to have your opinions/advises. My package - let's call it mypackage for the purpose of this email - passes all checks of R CMD check, except for the following failure message: Error : .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'mypackage', details: call:

Dear all, I have been building R packages under windows on my old pc, successfully. Now I have bought a new pc, still running windows, and I am trying to build the same R packages as before, but now without the same success. I have installed the Rtools, perl, mingw and added them to the environment variables. I am running Windows XP Professional on a Thinkpad T60. I have installed R-2.4.1,

hi, i'm having some trouble getting a package to load a shared library object in .onLoad(...) i have a shared object file, say "mylib.so". if i start an R session, and via the CLI specify the actual library via: > dyn.load("mylib.so") everything works quite well (i.e. i can then follow with some .Call (...) methods) now, i'd like to include this shared library in

In 0.65.0 lib.source() within library() works differently and fails to correctly "load" a library when it wants to change an object that it has defined previously: Below is a very short shar file that produces a "minimal" example [no attachment, just appended]. To reproduce {read on, before doing it!} do sh < libBug.shar <<<<< the file name you gave

Function/file names are hypothetical. Say I have written myfunction.R, which calls myfunction.c via .C("myfunction", ...). I've compiled successfully myfunction.c via R CMD SHLIB myfunction.c in the terminal. Then, in the R console: dyn.load("myfunction.so") source("myfunction.R") test <- myfunction() # works fine So everything is in order, myfunction works

Is there a specific place where we can place code to run once only in a package? I have code that switches based on Sys.info()[["nodename"]] - but since this just about never changes, I would like to run it only once when someone runs: require( mypackage ) or library( mypackage ) I'm tempted to have some free-floating code in global space (in one of my package's .R files), but

Included below is a shar archive containing two patches that together: 1) make backup files get their setuid and setgid bits stripped by default 2) add a "-s" option that allows backup files to continue to have these privileges This means that if you update a collection of binaries with rsync, and one or more of them has a local-root security problem, the backup file(s) created when

I'm having trouble with a Bioconductor package, an variable expected in an environment does not seem to be there. As part of my investigation of the problem (most likely on my end) I'd like to list the variables contained in an environment. If you have an environment loaded, lets call it "pkgEnv', how does one find what it does contain? Mark

Hi there; I am a neophyte to R though I have been messing around with programming in other languages and environments for some years (my dog's name is punchcard to give you some idea of how many years). I have been trying to make a package and install it, to no avail. The functions I have written all work as expected (by me, that is). But I cannot get the html help pages to work. The

Dear r-help group, I am creating a package that has some FORTRAN code under windows. I have read through "Writing R Extension" but still not so clear about the steps. Before R CMD build, how can I create a dynamic library and later in my R function using dyn.load ("xxx.dll") ? If I already have a .dll file, can I build the package with the dll file directly ? Does any one

Hi I have a package which was built using R 1.9.1 and everything worked fine. I recently upgraded to R 2.0.1 and tried to re-install my package - and I got: Error in library(mypackage) : 'mypackage' is not a valid package -- installed < 2.0.0? So I tried rebuilding it using my new version of R: R CMD BUILD --binary mypackage hhc: not found cp: cannot stat `mypackage.chm': No

Hello. I have what I know to be a simple question, but never having done anything like this it is pretty tough. I'm trying to write an R package. I have a collection of functions that I loaded into R and then used package.skeleton(). After editing everything in the resulting folder, call it NewPackage, I tried to follow along with some instructions I found for Windows users. I installed

I have some questions about 1. nomenclature, 2. recommended file locations and 3. overall procedure related to creating packages. To the extent that it matters, examples here relate to Windows XP R 2.0.1 beta. The questions are interspersed and prefaced with ***. My understanding is that there are actually 6 forms of a package that one should use in package development: 1.

Dear friends, I am building an R package called *mypackage*. I followed every possible steps (to my understanding) for the same. I got following problem while doing *R CMD check mypackage*. * installing *source* package 'mypackage' ... ** libs cygwin warning: MS-DOS style path detected: C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-213~1.0/etc/i386/Makeconf Preferred POSIX equivalent is:

I'm putting together an R package. I would like to show example code in the vignette, where example data files (included in the package) are used to generate an (example) output file. I read about using example data in Hadley Wickham's post ( http://r-pkgs.had.co.nz/data.html), and believe I should keep my example data as raw data, as it must be parsed to generate the output. So, I

Hi, I need to link mypackage to 2 other packages so I can call some C functions defined in these 2 packages from mine. I've tried Depends: packageA, packageB LinkingTo: packageA, packageB as suggested by the "5.4 Registering native routines" section of the "Writing R Extensions" manual but then only packageA is seen at compilation time (gcc is called with

I have question regarding package installation. What is the difference between check, INSTALL, build and build --binary, which imply which and what order does one normally perform them? I have been trying: R CMD build /mypackage R CMD check /mypackage R CMD build --binary /mypackage in that order but wanted to check that this is right. Also, what portion of the check process can be run

Hi I found yum-downloadonly and executed my command do that and save the dependencies in my current directory. Now when I execute my command: rpm -i mypackage all the dependencies are not found even though they are in the current directory. if I do a "yum install mypackage" (and its in the current directory) its not found either. How do I now install the mypackage in the current
