Hallo everybody, I'm doing an econometric analysis with R and I've written a script which automatically opens multiple Quartz devices I need to visually inspect. Unfortunately I often (i.e., not always and not following any pattern I'm able to recognize) get a Java error which causes the Java runtime to hang and stops R altogether, obliging me to restart it.
You'll have to elaborate -- Java is not used by Quartz, Apple doesn't allow Java UI to be run from R and Quartz is not supported to be run from Java, so are probably doing something bad in the first place. If you use Java, you have to use JavaGD (or similar) instead of Quartz. Cheers, Simon
The error is not always the same - I've noted these so far: java quit unexpectedly while using the graphics.so plug-in java quit unexpectedly while using the libjri.jnilib plug-in java quit unexpectedly while using the grDevices.so plug-in My environment is as follows: R 3.0.1 64bit Eclipse Platform 4.3.0 with StatET 3.3 JRE Java SE 6 [1.6.0_51-b11-457] OSX 10.8.5 Has anybody experienced a similar problem and can suggest any workaround I might try? By the way, is there a keyboard shortcut to cycle through multiple Quartz windows just like you can do in other OSX applications? I couldn't find any. Thank you very much Kind regards Francesco [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
