Hello Ryan, You may be interested in the function sclapply(...) located in the HTSeqGenie package. sclapply is a multicore dispatcher that accepts 3 main arguments (inext, fun, max.parallel.jobs). The data produced by the function inext, executed in the main thread, is dispatched to fun(),

[Rd] For numeric x, as.character(x) doesn't always match signif(x, 15)

I saw something like this. x - 5183 print(x, digits=20) [1] 5183 as.character(x) [1] 5.18e+15 I thought it was because, when x is numeric, as.character(x) represents x rounded to 15 significant digits. print(signif(x, 15), digits=20) [1] 5180.

I've had reports lately about segfaults in the rgl package. I've only been able to reproduce these on Linux. I am not so familiar with C++ details, so I have a couple of questions way down below. But first some background info. One recipe to recreate the crash works with a new version

A quick addition: If I add #define Shape rglShape near the top of my Shape.hpp header file, the bug goes away. But I can't believe that would be necessary. These are in separate packages, don't they have separate namespaces in C++? How can I avoid clashes with types declared in other

In C++, everything goes in the global namespace unless the programmer explicitly creates one. So when you dynamically load two dynamic shared libraries with a Shape object they clash. The solution here is to put namespace rgl { ... } around your class definitions in the rglm package, and

Thanks Dirk, Martyn and Romain. I'm planning to do a temporary workaround release with the Shape class renamed to rglShape, but over the longer term I'll put everything that's supposed to be local inside an rgl namespace. First I need to learn how namespaces interact with extern C

2013-10-02 Thread Romain Francois
Duncan, extern C just means that the function(s) below it have C calling conventions, so that .Call, .External, ... can find them. Without this, your function names would be c++ mangled to disambiguate different overloads. What is inside can use namespace without any issue. You'd have

The double colon :: can be confusing here, but the R-exts manual is actually correct. :: does not imply anything about the package namespace; it is merely a separator. The vignette engines are written in the form package::engine, and the engine name _happens_ to be knitr as well in this case.
