Hello,

Just to be complete, in my first answer I forgot to mention your 'default.wd'.
There's no need to call getwd() to do what you want.


tmp.wd <- choose.dir()
default.wd <- setwd(tmp.wd)


Hope this helps,

I've found the following strange behaviour R (RStudio) which has been confirmed by another user in RGui.


Inside a script I want to set two variables:

default.wd = getwd()
tmp.wd = setwd(choose.dir())

After choosing tmp.wd the value of default.wd is shown in Workspace, but getwd() is giving back the correct string of tmp.wd.
 Is there a workaround for the problem?

I'm working on RStudio 0.96.228 and R 2.15.2.

Regards
Markus
