Re: [Rd] Attributes of 1st argument in ...

2010-07-06 Thread Daniel Murphy
I stand corrected. It is possible for the S4 cbind to know the symbol of unnamed arguments, by cheating: colnames(base::cbind(...,deparse.level = deparse.level)) -- which tells me that there ought to be a non-cheating way. I note that the Rmpfr class union, Mnumber, means that the simple

I had a problem like this for a while with bigmemory et. al... the check went through to the very end, including successfully building the man pages, then a number of shells popped up and the process died as described here. The build was successful. We never did figure out exactly why, but are

R-devel, I discovered a segfault in my R code that boiled down to my incorrect use of the Recall() function embedded within a with() function. Since segfaults are generally bad things, even when it's the user's fault for writing nonsense code, I thought I'd pass along the offending code. I've
