Subject: [Rd] non-interactive R_tryEval does not return
Message-ID: <6phmz37go2f.fsf@gopher4.fhcrc.org>

...at least I think that is what happens, at least on some
configurations. Here's a repeatable example:

cd R_HOME/tests/Embedding
touch tmp.R
make tryEval

and then (correct)

> ./tryEval --slave
Error in sqrt("") : Non-numeric argument to mathematical function
Caught an error calling sqrt(). Try again with a different argument.
[1] 3

versus (non-interactive; no return)

> ./tryEval --slave < tmp.R
Error in sqrt("") : Non-numeric argument to mathematical function
Execution halted

> echo "sessionInfo()" | R --slave
R version 2.5.0 Under development (unstable) (2007-02-21 r40774)
