2007-09-26 Thread Joe W. Byers
I am desperate for help. I am trying to get the RJDBC and rJava .5to work on both my windows xp and linux Redhat EL5 Server. On both I get a ava.lang.ClassNotFoundException when calling JDBC(). My example is require(RJDBC) classPath='C:\\libraries\\mysql-connector-java-5.1.3-rc\\mysql-connecto

Hi, It seems there are 2 slightly different ways to create a virtual class with no slots (a kind of Java "interface"): with or without specifying 'representation("VIRTUAL")'. > setClass("A", representation("VIRTUAL")) [1] "A" > showClass("A") Virtual Class No Slots, prototype of class

I have a C function, which performs a transformation of a large integer matrix. The matrix may be of size 1.6GB, so I can have only one copy in RAM and have to modify it in place. This is possible using .Call and works fine. For debugging, I need two copies of a smaller matrix and modify only one o
