Sorry for delay in responding Paul. I had a look at BrowserViz and ran into
> PORT_RANGE <- 12111:12120 > if(BrowserViz::webBrowserAvailableForTesting()){ + bvApp <- BrowserViz(browserFile=browserVizBrowserFile, quiet=TRUE) + data <- list(lowercase=letters, uppercase=LETTERS) + json.returned <- roundTripTest(bvApp, data) + data.returned <- fromJSON(json.returned) + message(sprintf(" %5d bytes exchanged", nchar(json.returned))) + stopifnot(data == data.returned) + html <- sprintf("<h3>round trip of json-encoded data, %d chars</h3>", + nchar(json.returned)) + displayHTMLInDiv(bvApp, html, "bvDemoDiv") + } attempting to open websocket connection on port 10000 BrowserViz websocket ready after 1.30 seconds 237 bytes exchanged Error in data == data.returned : comparison of these types is not implemented Maybe we can discuss this on issues in BrowserViz github ... where is that? Then we can bring back the solution to bioc-devel.
