[Rd] vignettes processed twice under Windows?

2010-06-03 Thread Dominick Samperi
When I try to build vignettes for a package under Windows the package shared library is built twice, first presumably to generate the vignette, and then to generate the package binary. But the library building steps are of course the same. Is this a known issue or is there a way to get it to build

[Rd] named empty list

2010-06-03 Thread Hervé Pagès
Hi, I just realized that a named empty list is displayed the same way as an empty list: > list(aa=2:5)[0] list() > list() list() For empty atomic vectors, the print method makes the difference: > c(aa=3L)[0] named integer(0) > integer(0) integer(0) Maybe lists could do that to

Gabor, I would like to thank you for referring me to the new #Rscript file. Apparently that is all it took to get my simulation running remotely on a Windows 7 machine. It seemed to have cured the jgr.exe hiccup as well. Respectfully, Eric -- View this message in context: http://r.789695

This is not really about R, is it? Few of us will have any idea what '#Rscript' is (it is not part of R), and the mention of JGR suggests that the third-party Java interface is involved (and that has its own mailing lists). Nor would R-help be appropriate: please ask the authors of #Rscript
