Thanks David for your fast reply, but now I realized tat "string" is
of type:
> class(string)
[1] "jobjRef"
attr(,"package")
[1] "rJava"
so I get an error when i try with gsub or sub:
> sub("^.+\\t(\\d+)\\n.+$", "\\1", string)
Error in as.character.default(x) :
no method for coercing this S4 class to a vector
I think that there should be trivial solution, but... Any further
idea?
Regards, Andrej
