rsource package

[Dave Airey]

Anyone successfully using rsource on Win7 with Stata 14?

I tried rsource from Roger Newson in a new environment (windows 7 64bit, Stata v.14 network license). I've used rsource before on a personal mac Stata license without issues. When I tried to use rsource, a window with all blue background pops up and disappears as quickly (it might be titled with System32, but it goes away so fast I can't tell). I get no R output other than:

. rsource using twoplustwo.R
Assumed R program path: "C:\Program Files\R-3.2.2\bin\i386\Rterm.exe"
Beginning of R output
End of R output

I set my path etc. as the help file indicated

global Rterm_path `"C:\Program Files\R-3.2.2\bin\x64\Rterm.exe"'
global Rterm_options `"--vanilla"'

I'm in conversation with Roger Newson off list. He's proven to me that something is not right with my system. --Dave

How embarrassing. I had a path set incorrectly as Roger just pointed out!! Now it works. Thanks Roger, your Stata packages are very helpful.

Hi Dave,

Can you please share the correction you did?

glo Rterm_path `"C:\Program Files\R\R-4.1.2\bin\x64\Rterm.exe"'
glo Rterm_options `"--vanilla"'

When I run the following code

 rsource using filename.R

, I output is displayed in stata up until loading tidyverse library, and it stops.

> # Clear environment
> rm(list=ls())
> # Load libraries
> library(tidyverse)
End of R output

When I run the following code

 rsource using filename.R,  roptions(--slave)

I get the same message in your first thread.

Assumed R program path: "C:\Program Files\R\R-4.1.2\bin\i386\Rterm.exe"
Beginning of R output
End of R output

Thank you,
