Get the R actor working with JNI
Added by Chad Berkley about 15 years ago.
Updated almost 15 years ago.
Description
We need to get the R actor working with JNI instead of having it make calls to the native executable. This will simplify many aspects of R, including file handling, installation and overall cohesiveness with the rest of the system.
Bug 3809 needs to get fixed first.
Try to get this in for 2.0 but this might go into a non-standard module. If that's the case, this can get pushed to post-2.0
We've moved RExpression actors (both the script-based and the JRI-based implementations) to a new and separate module ("r") so that we can develop these more independently from the Kepler release (in this case, 2.0).
We'll continue to work for complete RExpression2 (JRI-based) backward compatibility with RExpression1 (script-based).
More to come on that.
The more I/We work with the RNI implementation of this actor, I believe we'll need to seriously consider using some of the serialization tricks employed by the original RExpression actor for transferring special R-data objects...
