MinGW calls MSVCRT for this, and calling MSVCRT is part of the (modern) definition of MinGW (it once called crtdll.dll). Now, the MSVCRT docs do not claim that atof supports hexadecimal, so I suspect your point is that wine is an inaccurate emulation of MSVCRT (which is indeed pretty irrelevant). > > ---------------------- >> 0x10L > [1] 16 >> sessionInfo() > R version 2.5.0 (2007-04-23) > i386-pc-mingw32 > > locale: > C > > attached base packages: > [1] "stats" "graphics" "grDevices" "utils" "datasets" "methods" > [7] "base" > ---------------------- > > >> >> On Tue, 1 May 2007, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >> >>> On 01/05/2007 7:21 AM, Stephan wrote: >>>> Hi, >>>> >>>>> 0x10L >>>> returns: int 0 >>>> >>>> I would expect: int 16? >>>> This happens with all integer constants given by hexadecimal notation. >>>> It's a bug? >>> Certainly looks like one; I've cc'd this to the bug list (but won't be >>> able to look into fixing it). >>> >>> Duncan Murdoch >>> >>>> >>>>> sessionInfo() >>>> R version 2.5.0 (2007-04-23) >>>> i386-pc-mingw32 >>>> >>>> locale: >>>> LC_COLLATE=German_Germany.1252;LC_CTYPE=German_Germany.1252;LC_MONETARY=German_Germany.1252;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=German_Germany.1252 >>>> >>>> attached base packages: >>>> [1] "stats" "graphics" "grDevices" "utils" "datasets" "methods" >>>> [7] "base" >>>> >>>> >>>> Stephan >>>> >>>> ______________________________________________ >>>> R-devel@r-project.org mailing list >>>> https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel >>> ______________________________________________ >>> R-devel@r-project.org mailing list >>> https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel >>> >> > -- Brian D.
