I'm trying to use mclapply() with org.Hs.eg.db annotation package as
follows:
library('org.Hs.eg.db')
library('multicore')
foo <- list('EGFR', 'KRAS', 'TP53')
# the following works fine
result <- mclapply(foo, mc.cores=1, function(x) {
mget(x, env=revmap(org.Hs.egSYMBOL))
})
# however when you try using more than one core, you start generating
error
messages
result <- mclapply(foo, mc.cores=2, function(x) {
mget(x, env=revmap(org.Hs.egSYMBOL))
})
> result
[[1]]
[1] "Error in sqliteExecStatement(con, statement, bind.data) : \n RS-
DBI
driver: (invalid dbManager handle)\n"

This question has been explored previously here
https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-hpc/2009-August/000336.html on
the HPC
mailing list, but I figured it may be worth while to try it on the
Bioconductor mailing list. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Andrew
