In Mac OS X native version: The R shell wrapper (bin/R) overrides default library search path with DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH and adds (among others) /usr/X11R6/lib. This causes problems when modules need (directly or indirectly) libraries from Apple's frameworks which are masked by X11. Examples for such packages are SJava and RGL. SJava needs JavaVM which in turn loads OpenGL framework. RGL

I just wrote a graphics device taking the X11 device in R-devel as a guide (I was told it's the reference device). It works perfectly with R-devel, but I just noticed that the API (e.g. the use of R_GE_gcontext) is incompatible with previous versions of R. Is the current API in R-devel set in stone or are there any further plans to change the API? (If so, how far?) Also, is there any

I encountered several strange issues when linking to R.dll on Windows and I wonder if anyone of the Windows savvy-folks here had seen some of the issues before and have some explanation. My Rserve links to R dynamic library. That works perfectly on unix boxes and worked fairly well with older MinGW and older R (<=1.7.1). What I do in fact is that I specify -L$(R_HOME)/bin -lR when linking.

I need to implement some external callbacks to R and I'm not happy with the current REPL, since it prevents any general solution. Are there plans to improve the current REPL anytime soon? The current approach has some deficiencies you are surely aware of (only one input (=external event loop), the loop is blocked while waiting for input in R_ReadConsole, ...). But the major problem is

I re-generated configure of the latest R-devel with autoconf 2.57 and got the following problem: configure: error: conditional "HAVE_ORBIT" was never defined. Usually this means the macro was only invoked conditionally. (resolving HAVE_ORBIT leaves us with HAVE_GNORBA causing the same problem. You should be able to reproduce it by running autoreconf (or aclocal; autoconf - not just

A while ago I compiled R 1.7.0 for AIX (with the above compiler - I'll call it xlc) and I was surprised that it went quite smoothly. Unfortunately with R 1.8.0 it's not as easy, but I succeeded at least partially. Static R works fine (after some tweaking), but --enable-R-shlib fails resp. produces a buggy R. Following are the problems I encountered (in a warning-to-fatal-error

After the recent discussion about future direction of the Mac OS X port, I was toying with the idea to make R a proper Mac OS X framework. There are several advantages: OS X locates frameworks automatically, therefore any program wishing to link against R has only to specify "-framework R" at link time. Furthermore versioning is supported, i.e. if a program is linked against R 1.7.1

Some issues with the recent R-devel (rsync today) on Darwin: 1) Recent R-devel is a bit misleading concerning the R-framework installation: A new option --enable-R-framework was introduced, but install-Rframework ignores its absence (or --disable-R-framework for that matter) and tries to install the framework anyway in / which fails just after the R itself was copied into /Versions/.... I

Hello Tal, You asked *When is it helpful to use interactive plots? Either for data exploration (for ourselves) and data presentation (for a "client")?* My answer: It's helpful for checking data quality, for exploration with and without "clients", for checking results, and for data presenting. Notes: (1) It's difficult to explain interactive data visualization in

Has there been a recent change in the behavior of binary operators? In SparseM it was, until quite recently ok to do scalar multiplication but now, > A*4 Error in A * 4 : non-numeric argument to binary operator > 4*A Error in 4 * A : non-numeric argument to binary operator > A%*%A An object of class "matrix.csr" Slot "ra": [1] 1 1 1 Slot "ja": [1] 1 2 3

As Jason Turner told you, one possibility is to use the communication interface SJava (for another documentation, see this article: Urbanek, S. (2002) "No need to talk to strangers - Cooperation of Interactive Software with R as Moderator", http://simon.urbanek.info/simon/yawe/research/pub.html) but it seems not so easy to use (but if you want to do sophisticated things from what

Hi. Day three and I’m still struggling with this. Any advice to overcome the final hurdle will be enormously appreciated. I now have all the right Java applications etc. in their right places and have managed to get rid of most errors but still get this: — Making package SJava — Building JNI header files... adding build stamp to DESCRIPTION running src/Makefile.win (cd .. ;

Madam, I've read your answer : /////////////////////////////////////// Here are other alternatives that are easy to implement and that you should consider depending on what you want to do: 1- one is to use R in batch mode ie you create a file in your java code with all the R commands and send it to R (via Process pc=Runtime.getRuntime().exec(Rcall); )and then R creates an

This email isn't asking for assistance, but I thought R-help readers would find it interesting. This week we offered a half-day introduction to R for researchers at Augsburg University. The response was astonishing. Although Augsburg has no medical faculty and no engineers, there was far too much demand, with interest from every faculty (barring theology, "for one small

Hello. I'm writting a glx device and I've some performance problem with the eventloop registration system. The device is not refresh when there's no X event. That's problematic for animation and "smoothness" of display. Should I use threads or fork the R process to get and independant way to refresh my device ? Or do you know another way to refresh it ? Thanks

Dear R users / devs, There's been requests in the past for a text editor built into the Rgui for Windows, from which code can be submitted to the R console. Something along the lines of the script editor in S-Plus. Currently Rgui can only display a file read-only in a pager. As far as I can tell there's been little motivation to implement an editor, as most developers use (the
