Hi all,
Longtime user and lurker here.
I got "index error" thrown by Rcpp when trying to subset a matrix with
width * height == 644764 * 3776 greater than MAXINT:
Allocating 647764 x 3776 matrix...

147 indices.reserve(rhs_n);
148 int* ptr = INTEGER(rhs);
149 check_indices(ptr, rhs_n, lhs_n);
150 for (int i=0; i < rhs_n; ++i) {
151 indices.push_back( rhs[i] );
152 }
153 indices_n = rhs_n;
As we can see from the stack trace and below, lhs.size() is negative when
cast to int:
(gdb) p (int)(lhs.size())
$12 = -1849010432
This is all coming from the assignment (via operator []) of the subsetting
of one matrix to another matrix's subset:
(static_cast<NumericVector&>(mat))[lhsI] =
(static_cast<NumericVector&>(signals))[rhsI];
(lhsI and rhsI are IntegerVector's)
Now, setting aside whether I *should* be doing that -- what I *do* see in
Subsetter.h (including what I understand to be the most recent version,
1.0.0 from github) is the use of int for indices all over the place in this
file, including in the member variable:
std::vector<int> indices;
Is there any reason why the indices that Subsetter uses internally
shouldn't be size_t or an equivalently capable type like R_xlen_t?
For example, Subsetter's check_indices function takes int's as arguments,
while Vector's size method returns R_xlen_t.
I'll change my code to manually copy elements via operator() using the
row/column arguments for now. Seems like Subsetter is maybe not quite
ready for prime time.
