Hello all, Iâm new here and this is actually my very first post. My name is Giannis and I am an undergraduate student. I am programming in Microsoftâs Visual Studio 2010 (VB.NET mostly) and I want to create a program for the research group I am in.
I merely want to evaluate actions and use simple statistical things such as ks test (Kolmogorov-Smirnov), and some plots. The reason I need to call R from my program is that the users of my program will NOT know any programming language, and by extension they will not know R either. So everything will happen by the click of a button. For me to do that, I need to be able to use interoperability between R and VS.NET 2010, so that I can use Râs evaluator. Iâve already tried Baierâs StatConnDCOM (http://rcom.univie.ac.at) and I did succeed in creating a program that runs perfectly but came to see the hard way that â for my case, is kind of useless for the sole reason of StatconnDCOMâs redistribution restriction. As Mr. Baier told me himself, there is no guarantee that StatconnDCOM will be available free of charge for ever. Hence I cannot create a freeware program now, and have my users uncertain of where they will be able to use this program for free in the future. Iâve already tried R.NET (http://rdotnet.codeplex.com/ ) Version 1.4 (stable) and 1.4.1 (Change Set: 6d2c3f161801 ). This does seem wonderful and it doesnât have StaconnDCOMâs ridiculous restrictions, BUT it refuses to work on me! So, now that you have all the necessary background info, it is time I presented my questions: 1) Is there another way of using R from Visual Studio that you can point me to? 2) Is anyone here using R.NET (any version) successfully? If so, can you help me to get it working? Unfortunately they canât help me on R.NETâs official discussion forum I mean, I just need to evaluate the basic R stuff.. Why is it THAT difficult? Last but not least, let me give you info that might be relevant in your deciding how to aid me. OS: Windows 7 Professional x64 English (Genuine, it is purchased) R: Version 2.15.0 Programming Environment: Microsoft Visual Studio .net 2010 For any additional Info, please do not hesitate to ask me either here or directly at giannis_mamaliki...@msn.com I hope we can make this work. thanks in advance.
