Problem with zoo and BootPR packages

Hi,

I'm trying to plot the forecasts I generated using the Plot.Fore function of the BootPR package.
But I got an error from zoo:

My data:

Time Series:
Start = 1
End = 18
Frequency = 1
?[1] ?38731 ?38628 ?39117 ?92809 ?71984 ?31226 ?58613 ?72360 107956 ?92066
[11] ?95208 ?99098 ?95848 120383 110717 105680 ?98469 101916

Script:

y1<-ts(y1);
forey1<-BootBC(y1,p=2,h=3,nboot=5000,type="const+trend",correct="ssf")
Plot.Fore(y1,forey1$forecast,start=1966,end=1984,frequency=1)

The Error:

Error in zooreg(x, start, end, frequency) :
?"data" : attempt to define illegal zoo object

Any Help?

Thanks

Rick

This is a bug in Plot.Fore() which does not use the zoo functions
correctly. It should be reported to the package maintainer.

To avoid it, you can do
  Plot.Fore(as.vector(y1), ...)
instead of
  Plot.Fore(y1, ...)

Note to the maintainer (Jae Kim, Cc now): Plot.Fore() calls zooreg(x)
where x is a "ts" object. This isn't the appropriate use of zooreg() which
expects a numeric vector/matrix (or a factor). In the case above
as.zoo(y1) would already be enough (and preserve all time information). Or
you can manually call zooreg(coredata(y1), start = ..., end = ..., ....).
See the zoo vignettes/examples for more details.

Best,
Z

Contact the BootPR maintainer regarding a bug in this line of Plot.Fore:

? y1 <- zooreg(x, start, end, frequency)

where x is a ts object but that may not be used in that context.
as.zooreg is available for converting ts series (and certain other
objects) to zooreg objects.
