All, I'm trying to better understand how to use the IBrokers package by going through the `IBrokers.pdf` vignette. I'm using the demo version of TWS (login `edemo`). TWS seems to be running fine. However, I get stuck at the following command from the vignette:
reqContractDetails(tws, twsEquity("QQQQ")) R just seems to hang and I don't get any further response. My sessionInfo is below. I'm using the most current IBrokers from Google Code. Am I doing something wrong, or is this not supposed to work with the TWS demo version?
