[R] Windows vista's early terminate Rgui execution
Hi,I have a frustrating problem from vista that I wonder if anyone has come across the same problem. I wrote a script that involves long computational time (although, during the calculation, it spits out text on the gui to notify me the progress of the calculation periodically). Windows vista always stopped my calculation and claimed that 'Rgui is stop-working. Windows is checking for solution.' And when I looked into task manager, windows already stopped my Rgui process. I am quite disappointed with this. I would really appreciate if anyone finds a solution to go around this windows vista problem? Particularly, how to turn off this feature in vista? Any help would be really appreciated.

Just include a line that does a call to Vista that doesn't do output, such as useless - dir() placed in some outer loop that satisfies the drop dead time between calls. Alternatively, you can attempt to find out how to change the registry entry corresponding to the wait time and increase it to a value you can live with. Robert A. LaBudde, PhD, PAS, Dpl.

Re: [R] Windows vista's early terminate Rgui execution
That's really helpful Robert! I was thinking of writing my output to a file periodically but that will make my runtime longer. I think this way is better. Running dir() which contacts windows periodically because it takes much less time than writing to a file.
