The problem with tseries has been resolved for Win2k and R-2.6.x (as well as the one with Matrix), I hope. Please download a new version from CRAN master in roughly 12 hours from now (you have to wait for some syncing process before). Uwe Ligges __ R

[Rd] inconsistency within within( ) (PR#11131)

2008-04-10 Thread jritter
Hello R-team ~ I ran across an inconsistency about how within( ) handles expressions like b<-NULL. (I have found within( ) very handy, by the way.) The problem appears to crop up when you use something like b<-NULL in the same within() call that creates a new variable in the data frame. An

I suggest that we try to program a solution in Sweave. It only inserts the path to the file is stylepath=TRUE in RweaveLatexSetup, so it seems to be that Sweave(stylepath=FALSE) is all that is needed. That seems to work, although of course obliges people to make sure Sweave.sty is in their l

Thanks Duncan, I just did a survey of the BioConductor repository and only 4 of the 354 .Rnw vignette files contain the \usepackage{Sweave} specification. Adding this is tedious, but not impossible. If the \usepackage{Sweave} specification does become recommended, could you add a WARNING to the

[Rd] make check problems

I am attemting to build R from source and test R on NetBSD AMD64 and i386. I have run the configure and build steps successfully for R-2.3.1, R-2.6.0, and R-2.6.2. However, the suite of tests accessed by "make check" fails in numerous places. In some cases, the failure is expected, for example no

[Rd] ISOdate/ISOdatetime performance suggestions, other date/time questions

2008-04-10 Thread Sklyar, Oleg (MI London)
Dear list: working with date/times I have come across a problem that ISOdate and ISOdatetime are too slow on large vectors of data. I was surprised just until I looked at the implementation and the man page: "ISOdatetime and ISOdate are convenience wrappers for strptime". In other terms, they conv

Re: [Rd] getNativeSymbolInfo fails with Fortran symbol.

It's a bug -- unlike is.loaded, getNativeSymbolInfo seems unaware of Fortran names unless registered. Will be fixed in 2.7.0. On Wed, 9 Apr 2008, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > > In the following code routine 'initaquaphy' is defined in Fortran, > and dynamically loaded into R.: > > test.f: > > >
