Re: [Rd] Best way to locate R executable from within R?

I think the most reliable solution is something like system(paste(shQuote(file.path(R.home("bin"),"R")), ...)) it supports spaces in paths and works both on unix and Windows, picking the proper architecture. Cheers, Simon On May 22, 2012, at 3:05 PM, Henrik Bengtsson wrote: > On Tue, May 22

[Rd] Capturing signals from within external libs

I have a continuous loop running in an external library that I am calling from C (R API). This loop is processing events in real time with the possibility of significant lag between events. When processing an event, I can make use of R_CheckUserInterrupt, but while the external library code is wa

[Rd] Best way to locate R executable from within R?

Hi, I'd like to spawn of a new R process from within R using system(), e.g. system("R -f myScript.R"). However, just specifying "R" as in that example is not guaranteed to work, because "R" may not be on the OS's search path. What is the best way, from within a running R, to infer the command (

[Rd] Patch to add Beta binomial distribution. Mentor needed!

Hello, I implemented the Beta binomial distribution following the patterns of the binomial distribution code and inspired by JAGS' code [1]. I have studied the code carefully but it's my first run in the R internals. Can somebody review the code and if everything it's ok commit to the repository?
