memory leak using XML readHTMLTable

On Mon, Sep 17, 2012 at 3:16 PM, Duncan Temple Lang

The version of the package on github is in the
standard R format and that part of the README is
no longer relevant. Sorry for the confusion.

It might be simplest to pick up a tar.gz file of the source at

 http://www.omegahat.org/RSXML/XML_3.94-0.tar.gz

Duncan,

Thank you for the suggestion to use the alternative version.  That
version worked perfectly.  Going forward, is there any way to know by
the version number which versions of XML have the garbage collection
turned on?

Thanks again for the package, and the help in sorting out the memory issue.

Best,

James
