I have installed both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of R2.12.0 (2010-06-15 r52300) on my Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit system. I observe the following behavior when running the examples from base::connections. There appears to be a problem with seek() on a .gz file when using a 32-bit installation of R2.12.0, but the problem doesn't appear in the 64-bit installation. I realize that seek() has been

Dear all, In R-devel (2011-09-23 r57050), I'm running into a serious problem with seek()ing on connections opened with gzfile(). A warning is generated and the file position does not seek to the requested location. It doesn't seem to occur all the time - I tried to create a small example file to illustrate it, but the problem didn't occur. However, it can be seen with a file I use for

Is it just me, or did a corrupt PACKAGES.gz file get installed in the bin/windows/contrib/3.2 directory of CRAN mirrors recently? gzfile() complains about it and Cygwin's gzip cannot decompress it. I tried the following repos <- "https://cran.rstudio.com" v <- "3.2" pkgs.gz <- paste(sep="/", repos, "bin/windows/contrib", v,

This might seem like a strange question but is there any way to compress an R object (such as a matrix) and know its resulting size in bytes ? Clearly, I could implement this in the following way (if x is my matrix): zz <- gzfile(fname,"w"); write.table(x,zz); close(zz); file.info(fname)[,"size"]; However, I need to do this for hundreds of thousands

Hi, I have a set of user defined package which I have installed in 2.8.1 for quite some time. I installed 2.11.0 and 2.11.1 a couple of days ago while still having 2.8.1 version in my system. For the package, package.skeleton works fine in R 2.11. However, it comes problem when I run Rcmd check/intall. The intall.out shows below. I further tested that I reran R-2.8.1/bin/R CMD check in

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 everybody, I am using gzipped files quite extensively and cannot figure out how I can close (or reuse) connections. Example: > for(i in 1:300) {cat(i, "\n"); a <- readLines(gzfile("file.gz"), n=1) } 1 2 ... 46 47 Error in gzfile("~/tyyq/andmebaasiq/ETU/ETU1997.tsv.gz") : all connections are in use To use just gzfile without any open/close should

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 been trawling the web, FAQs, and R manuals for help on the following issue, but have failed and was wondering if anyone has a solution to the following problem: After having installed R 2.6.2 for Windows (binary), I tried to install various packages. Every time I try loading a package (any package) via the built-in menu, I run into the following error message. >

Hi, I'm running into more issues when reading data from a gzfile connection. If I read the data sequentially with successive calls to readBin(), the data I get looks ok. But if I call seek() between the successive calls to readBin(), I get corrupted data. Here is a (hopefully) reproducible example. See my sessionInfo() at the end (I'm not on Windows, where, according to the man page,

I realize that others have struggled with this issue...i.e. http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/~rking/R/help/05/01/9826.html i am on os.x 10.4 w/ R2.2, and am (perhaps foolishly) also on this quest... i would like to be able to install downloaded source (tar.gz'd) files from within an R session, and have it work in a X-platform way..i am often not connected to the internet and have libraries

When I read a .gz file with readLines() in 3.4.3, it returns text (and a warning). In 3.5.0, it gives a warning, but no text. Is this expected behavior or a bug? 3.4.3: > source_file = "1k_annotation.gz" > readfile_con <- gzfile(source_file, "r") > readLines(readfile_con, n = 5) [1] "#chr\tpos\tref\talt\t <truncated output here> Warning message: In

I don't understand why I can not close 'f'. This may be very simple, but I don't see why. Could somebody let me know? $ cat gzfile.csv "","V1","V2","V3","V4","V5" "1",1,5,9,13,17 "2",2,6,10,14,18 "3",3,7,11,15,19 "4",4,8,12,16,20 $ Rscript gzfile.R > f =

Hi, It seems like reading a line from a gzfile() connection changes the mode of the connection from text to binary (it also alters "can write", in case it matters). The following transcript, produced on RedHat 7.1, demonstrates this "feature" (note the evolution of file$text). Is this expected? Thanks, Vadim > file <- gzfile("foo.gz") file <-

Hello ... Are there any known problems or even gotchas to look out for when using a gzfile connection in read.csv/read.table in Windows? In the package PROcess, available at www.bioconductor.org/repository/devel/package/html/PROcess.html there are two files in the PROcess/inst/Test directory which are of the extension *.csv.gz. With both files, if I open up a gzfile connection, say: vv <-

I get unexpected behavior from "readLines()" and "scan()" depending on how the file is opened with "gzfile" or "unz". More specifically: > file <- gzfile("file.gz") > readLines(file,1) [1] "a\tb\tc" > readLines(file,1) [1] "a\tb\tc" > close(file) It seems that the stream is rewound between calls to readLines.

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.
