Hi people, I'm developing an application (in Linux) using tcltk and calling ggobi from that application (using the Rggobi package). After I load ggobi and want to use the windows made by tcltk I get some errors and sometimes R cracks. I believe the problem is because the packages Rggobi, RGtk and tcltk are running together. I thought about a solution that would be unload the Rggobi and RGtk packages after I use them. Do you know how I do that? And if someone has another solution for that problem please help me.
See ?detach
In principle, yes. However, as all these applications make use of the event loop hooks, please check that they do undo their effects. I don't see any signs of that in either Rggobi or RGtk (they would need a .Last.lib to do it): but I could have overlooked something.
