Hi Leonard,

Thanks so much for trying this out.

First, I'm glad the connection problem has been fixed. I also fixed the
search() and (.packages()) bug. This was my fault mainly because Rserve has
a number of different ways it deals with R objects. I've been doing my best
to deal with all the structures (Vectors versus Lists versus other objects,
filled with numbers, strings, and other structures), so by trying different
methods that I can't think of, you're letting me become more familiar with
the structure of the R objects.

Regarding installation, if you already have RAddon.uno.pkg installed then
you need to remove it before adding the new one -- this is why you got an
error, and it's more a unopkg (OpenOffice) thing than mine as far as I know.
What I'll do in the next few days is create some sort of basic installation
script so that people can check. Until then, I updated the wiki accordingly.

With regards to the range, you're inputting it correctly and it works
perfectly on Linux but crashes in Windows. At this point I do not know why,
but this is my first priority... I am asking around on the IRC channel right
now and will let you know as soon as possible about a fix.

Thanks,
Wojciech

Hello,

I have some additional questions:

I tried the following R-commands inside RDump():

search()
should output attached packages

(.packages())
print(.packages())
Neither (.packages()), nor print(.packages()) work. They should output
the attached packages [ '.packages()' won't  print anything, you need
either (.packages()) or print(.packages()) for this.]

.packages(all=TRUE)
should output all *installed packages*

Neither of these commands did work inside RDump!

Does this relate to the way Rserve connects to R or is this a coding
problem? sessionInfo() seems to work correctly and to report the
packages. I tried therefore: (inside RDump)
library("coin")
=> attaches the package 'coin' (needs to be installed on the machine)
sessionInfo()
=> package 'coin' is displayed (together with the base and
helper-packages).

So, I do NOT believe that this is an Rserve issue.

I insist on implementing debugging functions and working these issues
out, because this will ease future development.

Sincerely,

Leonard
