Dear List:
It is possible to embed SQL code as a string to be evaluated in R. I am
interested in formatting the SQL code in its own source code block, with
its own syntax highlighting and editing mode (C-c ').
The first time I run the code, I am prompted for R starting directory,
but I get an error:
---
load ESSR: + + + Error: unexpected string constant in:
source('~/.emacs.d/elpa/ess-20140913.1153/etc/ESSR/R/.load.R',
local=TRUE) #define load.ESSR
load.ESSR('"
---
and the console locks. I can C-g to get out of it, and then
re-evaluate, and the code prints what I expect -- the text of the SQL
command.
Is this the right way to go about this? Have I discovered a bug, or
perhaps accidentally a wrong way to get the right answer?
Is this an ESS problem, and not an orgmode problem, per se? My ESS
normally starts up fine, so I thought I would ask on this list first.
A minimal example (first failing, second evaluation giving expected
output) follows.
Best regards,
Eric
