Dear all, I am wondering does anybody know has there been any progress in fixing the problem with the getOrfs() function in the GeneR library, using R on a Windows computer? I have just tried this function on my Windows PC, and get the error described below. I would like to use this function to teach gene-finding for a bioinformatics practical class, so would be grateful if anybody could tell me if this problem with the function on Windows is likely to be fixed soon? Kind Regards, Avril Avril Coghlan University College Cork, Ireland I can confirm that on a mingw build for windows, these computations do not succeed as intended. This is a situation where the testing and error reporting of the software are not sufficient to allow our use of R CMD check to identify nonportable code. Somewhere in the package man pages or obligatory test code the result of a computation should be checked against its known value and an error thrown if a discrepancy occurs. Some of the computations in the examples seem solvable using Biostrings. Solution for you at this moment is to use another platform. I have shown that it works on MacOSX, and just tested a linux machine, and the intended results seem to come back. But it is important for all contributors to recognize that our multiplatform build/check system cannot identify nonportability if erroneous calculations do not raise error conditions in examples or tests.
