So this is a strange one.
Is it? Do you have X11 installed (from Xquartz on your OS)? The
standard rgl (like the standard Tk) is an X11 application. If you do
have Xquartz installed, try launching manually first, in case launchd is
somehow broken on your system. And check that DISPLAY is not set.
X11 rgl works fine on both my 10.8.2 systems.
As far as I know aglrgl.so needs a Quartz event loop running, and that
is what R.app provides.
Whenever I try to load the package 'rgl' via the usual 'library(rgl) in R
sessions inside bash, Rstudio, and sublime text (SublimeREPL) the session hangs
and refuses to load the package. The strange part is, if the package loads
fine within the R GUI app. Loading in verbose mode shows the successful load
in R.app as:
now
dyn.load(/library/frameworks/r.framework/versions/2.15/resources/library/rgl/bin/x86_64/aglrgl.so)
…
while the others hang at
now
dyn.load(/library/frameworks/r.framework/versions/2.15/resources/library/rgl/bin/x86_64/rgl.so)
…
Is it possible to force 'library(rgl)' to load the 'aglrgl.so' package in an
environment other than R.app? Or is there some way to fix the package so it
will load in those other environments?
I've googled this in every way I can think of and nothing comes up. I've also
un- and re-installed in multiple times. When I tried to rebuild from source,
via R CMD INSTALL, the build hangs at the last step 'testing if installed
package can be loaded' and I'm forced to kill the process.
Thanks for any help you can offer.
