Hi, My OS: OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)
I installed R version 3.4.0 beta (2017-04-07 r72496) today from the package R-3.4-branch-el-capitan.pkg obtained from http://r.research.att.com. There are several problems with the beta version of R 3.4.0 on macOS. Problem 1 ------------ There appears to be "problem" with R.app 1.70. See this copy from a small session in R.app (first time) > history() Error in .External2(C_savehistory, file) : 'savehistory' is not currently implemented > ?history starting httpd help server ... done 2017-04-08 09:03:40.230 R[2137:30477] App Transport Security has blocked a cleartext HTTP (http://) resource load since it is insecure. Temporary exceptions can be configured via your app's Info.plist file. > ?mean Nothing but blank/empty help pages display. And R.app's history file was zeroed. Problem 2 --------- I restored R.app's history file (from a Time Machine backup) to it's correct place. Second time startup of R.app 1.70. And then I issued a history() call. Result > ?history starting httpd help server ... done 2017-04-08 09:26:42.001 R[3017:38891] App Transport Security has blocked a cleartext HTTP (http://) resource load since it is insecure. Temporary exceptions can be configured via your app's Info.plist file. Third time starting R.app did not zero out the history file. Problem 3 ---------- The problem I mentioned yesterday about Rcpp is still there; it appears when I run R in a Terminal. But when I do library(Rcpp) in R.app no error message is issued.
