[Rd] Rmpi segfault after install on Ubuntu Hardy Heron

2008-06-10 Thread Mark Kimpel
I just installed Rmpi on my 64-bit Ubuntu Hardy Heron OS and using the following without errors: "R CMD INSTALL Rmpi_0.5-5.tar.gz --configure-args=--with-mpi=/usr/lib64/openmpi" Immediately at library(Rmpi) I get the segfault displayed in my complete output below. My first thought is that perhaps

[Rd] browser() exits when not desired, in three different scenarios (PR#11623)

2008-06-10 Thread timhesterberg
Here are three different scenarios in which the browser() exits when I don't want it to. These are all related to the browser accepting either c or (return) to exit. I would like an option to turn off the (return) behavior in order to avoid these problems. # Case 1 - when calling help # Note,

Prof. Ripley, Yes, I can configure when I write configure.ac correctly. But, If you provide all settings in Rconfig.h, I don't have to write configure.ac. That is a big benefit for package developers. Actually I haven't written correct configure.ac yet. Regards, Tadashi Kadowaki 2008/6/10 Prof

[Rd] show vs print (Re: Error in "getClass" when calling the function "show")

2008-06-10 Thread John Chambers
It's now perhaps only a historical point, but one motivation for introducing show() in S4 was the thought that something other than "printing" might evolve to be better for "showing" an object (e.g., a method that displayed the object graphically). The name was chosen to be neutral about how t
