I am trying to replicate this Python/win32com code to access MiKTeX
using R/rcom:
http://codeliberates.blogspot.com/2008/06/automating-miktex-using-python-win32com.html
Is this possible using rcom? How? See my attempt below.
Python/win32com:
>>> import win32com.client as w
>>> c = w.Dispatch("MiKTeX.Session")
>>> path = ''
>>> print c.FindFile("xunicode.sty", path)
(True, u'C:\\Program Files\\MiKTeX 2.7\\tex\\xelatex\\xunicode\\xunicode.sty')
>>> print c.GetMiKTeXSetupInfo().installRoot
C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.7
R/rcom:
> library(rcom)
> mik <- comCreateObject("MiKTeX.Session")
> path <- ""
> comInvoke(mik, "FindFile", "xunicode.sty", "path")
[1] TRUE
> comInvoke(mik, "FindFile", "xunicode.sty", path)
[1] TRUE
> info <- comInvoke(mik, "GetMiKTeXSetupInfo")
> info
NULL
