I got bounced as a non-member. Maybe you are in the best position
to have an opinion on this.
Yes, since OS X 10.5 Apple dropped support for AWT on the main thread,
so essentially you cannot use any graphics classes in R on OS X 10.5
since R is single-threaded. They work in JGR, though.
This is a bit problematic for tests and I don't have a good solution.
I have a hack that you're welcome to use -- when checking packages on
OS X 10.5 we set NOAWT=1 so you could make your graphics tests
conditional on
if (!nzchar(Sys.getenv("NOAWT"))) {
## AWT/Swing tests here
}
It's not pretty but that's all I can offer at the moment .. Ideally
Apple would fix that issue but ...
Cheers,
Simon

Subject: build of package xlsx fails on Mac
Hello,
One user pointed to me that the build of package xlsx fails on Mac.
I did not change anything on CRAN since I've uploaded the package.
I believe it used to work fine.
The issue is Java specific as my package uses rJava. When running
the examples, one gets:
checking Rd contents ... OK
checking examples ... ERROR
Running examples in 'xlsx-Ex.R' failed.
The error most likely occurred in:
### * CellStyle
flush(stderr()); flush(stdout())
### Name: CellStyle
### Title: Functions to manipulate cells.
### Aliases: CellStyle createCellStyle setCellStyle getCellStyle
### ** Examples
wb <- createWorkbook()
sheet <- createSheet(wb, "Sheet1")
rows <- createRow(sheet, rowIndex=1)
cell.1 <- createCell(rows, colIndex=1)[[1,1]]
setCellValue(cell.1, "Hello R!")
cellStyle1 <- createCellStyle(wb, borderPosition="RIGHT",
+ borderPen="BORDER_DASHED", fillBackgroundColor="yellow",
+ fillForegroundColor="tomato", fillPattern="BIG_SPOTS")
2010-02-15 12:47:54.174 R[33120:613] Apple AWT Java VM was loaded on
first thread -- can't start AWT.
Error in .jnew("java.awt.Color", rgb[1], rgb[2], rgb[3]) :
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError
Calls: createCellStyle -> .jcall -> .xssfcolor -> .jnew -> .External
Execution halted
Let me know if there is something on my side that I need to do. Of
course, I can \dontrun the example.
Thank you,
Adrian

Subject: RE: xlsx and binary data
Hi Adrian,
I see that the xlsx build fails on Mac:
http://www.r-project.org/nosvn/R.check/r-release-macosx-ix86/xlsx-00check.html
I hope this is only a temporary problem ?
Regards,
Ralf.
