hi, i'm curious if anyone else has noticed a change in behavior of readline()?
i have a function in an R package that calls readline() here: https://github.com/ajdamico/lodown/blob/master/R/mics.R#L126 after upgrading to 3.3.3, the function appeared to start ignoring that readline() call. my function runs some internet and plotting commands, so i might be doing something wrong here. i figured out that i can work around the problem by adding an empty readline("") call earlier in the same function.. so readline() is just getting skipped at the first occurrence for some reason. this line works around the problem, which seems odd: https://github.com/ajdamico/lodown/blob/master/R/mics.R#L94 i've been unsuccessful reproducing this more succinctly. latest R news indicates lots of changes to this function: https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/NEWS.html here's my extSoftVersion() and sessionInfo() thanks! > extSoftVersion() zlib bzlib xz PCRE ICU TRE iconv readline "1.2.8" "1.0.6, 6-Sept-2010" "5.0.8" "8.38 2015-11-23" "55.1" "TRE 0.8.0 R_fixes (BSD)" "win_iconv" "" > sessionInfo() R version 3.3.3 (2017-03-06) Platform: x86_64-w64-mingw32/x64 (64-bit) Running under: Windows 10 x64 (build 10586) locale: [1] LC_COLLATE=English_United States.1252 LC_CTYPE=English_United States.1252 LC_MONETARY=English_United States.1252 LC_NUMERIC=C LC_TIME=English_United States.1252 attached base packages: [1] grid stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base other attached packages: [1] survey_3.31-5 survival_2.40-1 Matrix_1.2-7.1 lodown_0.1.0 loaded via a namespace (and not attached): [1] httr_1.2.1 R6_2.2.0 curl_2.3 splines_3.3.3 jpeg_0.1-8 jsonlite_1.1 lattice_0.20-34 [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
