Well, it may be that load needs a small fix, but that doesn't fix
anonymous connections in general, IMO.
The loop could easily have been:
for (i in 1:50) {
print(load(url(testUrl, open="r")))
}
And it doesn't need to be related to url or load:
cat("a line of text\n", file="another-example.txt")
z <- NULL
for (i in 1:50) {
z <- c(z, readLines(file("another-example.txt", open="r")))
}
Also, connections are "in use" even if they are closed:
for (i in 1:50) {
if (isOpen(file("another-example.txt")))
stop("you will not get here")
}
