I am using RCurl, version 0.9-4, under windows. I can not find the function getURLContent(). Is it being renamed ? or is it in a different version?
Also, in the reference manual on CRAN R under package RCurl, I found a function getBinaryURL() documented but can not be found in the package as well. > > I would use something like > > content = getURLContent("ftp://...../foo.zip") > > attributes(content) = NULL > > writeBin(content, "/tmp/foo.zip") > > and that should be sufficient. > > (You have to strip the attributes or writeBin() complains.) > > ______________________________________________ > R-help@r-project.org mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide > http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. > > -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/ftp-fetch-using-RCurl--tp22228067p22247131.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
