Function for the Tinn-R object browser

Description

These functions provide features required to implement the Tinn-R object browser.

Usage

trObjSearch(path = NULL, compare = TRUE)
trObjList(id = "default", env.name = NULL, pos = 1, all.names = FALSE,
  pattern = "", group = "", path = NULL, compare = TRUE)

Arguments

path The path where to write a temporary file with the requested information
compare If compare == TRUE, result is compared with last cached value and the client is updated only if something changed
id The id of the object browser (you can run several ones concurrently)
env.name The name of the environment
pos The position in the search path
all.names Do we display all names (including hidden variables starting with '.')?
pattern A pattern to match for selecting variables
group The group to which variables belong

Details

trObjSearch list search paths. guiObjList lists objects in a given environment. These functions are not intended to be called directly by the end-user. They are used internally by Tinn-R to get data for its own R objects explorer. Note that, for Tinn-R to be able to run these commands and to communicate with R, you have to load the svIDE package. You must also activate one, or both communcation means: sockets, by loading the svSocket package, or DDE, by starting the guiDDEInstall() function from the svIDE package (you can activate both as well). Finally, you need also function from the svIO package. The best way to get R operational to communicate with Tinn-R from start is to add the following commands to '/etc/profile.site' in the R install directory: library(svIDE); library(svSocket); library(svIO); guiDDEInstall()

Value

Depending on the function, a list, a string, or a reference to an external, temporary file where data is written.
