[Rd] "Default" accessor in S4 classes

2013-01-07 Thread Chris Jewell
Hi All, I'm currently trying to write an S4 class that mimics a data.frame, but stores data on disc in HDF5 format. The idea is that the dataset is likely to be too large to fit into a standard desktop machine, and by using subscripts, the user may load bits of the dataset at a time. eg: > m

[Rd] Plots not drawn with buffered Cairo 1.12

2013-01-07 Thread Milan Bouchet-Valat
Hi! On Fedora 18 [1] and Arch Linux [2], using R 2.15.2, X11 plots are not drawn (i.e. the window stays blank) when using X11.options(type="cairo") and X11.options(type="dbcairo"). They are correctly drawn when using X11.options(type="nbcairo") and X11.options(type="xlib"), or after resizing the X
