writeRaster() error with raster_2.2-5

Thu, Jan 9, 2014 6:11 AM #

I'm getting this problem with raster_2.2-5 rgdal_0.8-14 (was working
until I updated):

test <- raster(matrix(10,nrow=4,ncol=4))
writeRaster(test,file="test",format="GTiff",overwrite=TRUE)

Error in .getGDALtransient(x, filename = filename, options = options,  :
  could not find function "GDALcall"

Instead
writeGDAL(as(test, "SpatialGridDataFrame"), fname ="test")
works fine.

It looks like the same problem we had few weeks ago is back

The error vanishes after starting a new R session.
This is probably a consequence of having installed the package from within
RStudio, even if the previous version was actually not loaded.
I will add "install from raw R session" and "re-start R after package
installation"
to my protocol before actually reporting an error. Apologies.
