Thanks Seth I got the code to work. I've actually got a followup question.
The strings were created from reading a file where an R object was placed in using "dput", meaning the strings hold R objects in character string format. My original intention for doing this was so that the character vector that is passed back to the R code could be parsed back into the original R object. Is this possible? Currently I'm doing this through writing the character string to a temporary file with "write" and then reading it back into an object using "dget", but I was hoping there was another method as efficiency is key and I will be needing to do this many many times. I know the above seems a little twisted in object conversion but I needed to do this as the original R object was created on a remote host and I'm trying to transfer the object from the remote host to the local host. I'm hoping to not need to do this through bypassing a temporary Best Regards, Jon -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Convert-multiple-C-strings-into-an-R-character-vector-tf4249882.html#a12098792 Sent from the R devel mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
