I have a daily job that attaches hundreds of pseudo-packages containing data as promise objects (DDP's, ref: g.data package), and plots the results to a multi-page pdf device. Sometimes it fails. Under R-2.2.1 it just gave segfaults. Under R-2.3.1 it gave this error message:
*** caught segfault *** address (nil), cause 'memory not mapped' Traceback: 1: load(system.file("data", paste(i, "RData", sep = "."), package = pkg), env) 2: g.data.load("tm.time", "hist.20051012") 3: g.inorder(93500, tm.time, 160000) aborting ... Segmentation fault Under R-2.4.0, it now gives this message: Error: STRING_ELT() can only be applied to a 'character vector', not a 'builtin' (which appears to be generated inside main/memory.c). I'm sorry I can't give a reproducible example, because it seems to happen randomly, and at different points in the process. So this is just a shot in the dark -- does anybody recognize this behavior?
