Mac and Windows binaries of rJava broken for R-devel?
Thanks for letting me know. Currently the ./2.16 Window binary tree on CRAN is still a link to ./2.15. We will work to get binaries up within a week. Uwe Ligges

Hi, Here is a problem we see with the Mac and Windows binaries of rJava (0.9-3) currently available on CRAN for R-devel (i.e. under bin/macosx/leopard/contrib/2.16/ and bin/windows/contrib/2.16/):
> library(rJava)
> .jinit("gaggle/inst/jars/gaggleRShell.jar")
Error in .Call("R_do_new_object", ClassDef, PACKAGE = "base") :
"R_do_new_object" not available for .Call() for package "base"
The same code works fine with R-devel on Linux and the same version
of rJava, or with R-2.15 on all platforms and the same version of
rJava (Mac or Windows binaries installed from CRAN).
The binaries currently available on CRAN for R-devel seem to predate
some important changes in R-devel with respect to the exposure of
some .Call entry points. Could it be that those binaries just need
to be rebuilt with a more recent version of R-devel?
FWIW, we have a few packages in the development version of Bioconductor
that are affected by this issue.
Thanks in advance,
