Re: in Statistics::R, startR breaks open

Not really set up to do any testing (and haven't looked at the module), but I wondered whether choosing different filehandles might make a difference - ie instead of specifying FH each time, specify FH1, FH2, FH3, etc.

Cheers,
Rob

Thank you for your response. You are right that if I needed to use the file, different filehandles would be useful. However, unique filehandles aren't essential, and this problem persists with unique filehandles.	[reply]

Ok, it looks like startR changes the relative file path. So `... $R->startR; open FH, ">", "c:/scripts/test2.txt" or die $!; ...` [download] works fine (for me, the relative path goes to the directory "C:/Program Files/R/R-2.8.1/Statistics-R/"). I think relative path issues are discussed elsewhere. My workaround is: `#!/usr/bin/perl use warnings; use strict; use Cwd; use Statistics::R; my $currentdir = cwd(); my $R = Statistics::R->new(); open FH, ">", "test1.txt" or die $!; $R->startR; $R->stopR; chdir($currentdir); open FH, ">", "test2.txt" or die $!;` [download] Note: I didn't actually need to open a file while communicating with R, but that wouldn't be hard to do. Thank you again.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
