I suspect that you are looking for something like:
read.csv(textConnection(
"5.1,3.5,1.4,0.2,setosa
4.9,3,1.4,0.2,setosa
4.7,3.2,1.3,0.2,setosa
4.6,3.1,1.5,0.2,setosa
5,3.6,1.4,0.2,setosa"
), header = FALSE)

Hi all,
Using RConsole, it's easy to get data from the database that you can use in an
R Command. Like this:
(Reference case)
irisQuery <- dbGetQuery(conn, "select * from iris")
boxM(irisQuery [,-5], irisQuery[,5])
----
(Actual case this posting is about)
Yet, if I'm getting that same (sample IRIS) data, say, in a web service
possibly POSTED from a SQL command, that same data might look like this
(portion of the included iris data set below). I'm thus not sure how to package
the data so R likes it.
Example R-included IRIS data from SQL output:
5.1,3.5,1.4,0.2,setosa,
4.9,3,1.4,0.2,setosa,
4.7,3.2,1.3,0.2,setosa,
4.6,3.1,1.5,0.2,setosa,
5,3.6,1.4,0.2,setosa,
I've tried various combinations in code to achieve what's simple in RConsole,
but I can't get R to accept my structure.
- I've tried just including the data in a string.
- I've tried wrapping the data with "data"
- I've tried wrapping the data with "data.frame" (as below).
Here's my latest attempt:
String tableRead = "data.frame(5.1,3.5,1.4,0.2,setosa\n" +
"4.9,3,1.4,0.2,setosa\n" +
"4.7,3.2,1.3,0.2,setosa\n" +
"4.6,3.1,1.5,0.2,setosa\n" +
"5,3.6,1.4,0.2,setosa)" ;
// using parseAndEval below to give me actual error R is sending...
REXP rResponseObject =
rConnection.parseAndEval("try(eval("+tableRead+"),silent=TRUE)");
if (rResponseObject.inherits("try-error"))
{
System.out.println("R Serve Eval Exception :
"+rResponseObject.asString());
}
REXP boxMResult = rConnection.eval("boxM("+ tableRead+ "[,-5]," + tableRead + "[,
5])"); // FAILS <<
----
Error in the above case is:
Disconnected from the target VM, address: '127.0.0.1:51356', transport: 'socket'
org.rosuda.REngine.REngineException: eval failed, request status: R parser:
syntax error
at org.rosuda.REngine.Rserve.RConnection.parseAndEval(RConnection.java:454)
at org.rosuda.REngine.REngine.parseAndEval(REngine.java:108)
at
net.example.start_r_fromjava.RStatisticsExample.main(RStatisticsExample.java:151)
Does the POSTed data need to be in a different format or am I just not framing
it correctly?
Would appreciate any tips on how to package table data that might come from a
SQL Query passed to Java code.
Thanks very much in advance,
