X2R is a bundle of three software libraries allowing the user to pass structured data easily from Fortran, C/C++, or AD Model Builder to R.
An update to X2R has been sent to CRAN today and should be available at mirrors shortly. This fixes a bug in the ADMB2R and C2R components in which data frames were not written correctly when the user did not specify row names. Several other minor improvements also have been made. The new version is supplied as files X2R.zip and X2R.tar.gz, which are equivalent. The version and release date can be identified from the contents of file "VersionInfo.txt" in the root of each archive. The new version bears date April 16, 2007. * * * From the original announcement: X2R is composed of three related software libraries: C2R, ADMB2R, and For2R (together, X2R). Each contains output routines to simplify transfer of complicated data structures from models written in a compiled language to R. The user's data can be written as a structured ASCII file which, when read by R (note 1) with a single dget() function call, will become an R data object of type list. The list, may contain components such as data frames, matrices, and other lists. These are NOT R packages; rather they are subroutine libraries to be used with programmers' own modeling codes. Limited testing indicates that they are compatible with S-PLUS, as well (note 1, note 2). Languages supported are Fortran 95 (with For2R), C and C++ (with C2R) and AD Model Builder (with ADMB2R) (note 1, note 3). Source code and users' manuals are supplied. This work has been tested and used by the authors. However, any software may contain bugs, and these works are classified by NOAA as "Experimental Products." Although the software is supplied with no warranty whatsoever, bug reports, suggestions, and extensions are solicited (send to Prager or Martin). The authors will attempt to fix all bugs promptly and to add requested features. Software is now available at CRAN, http://cran.r-project.org/ . Look under "Software / Other" for the current X2R distribution. Michael H.
