[Bioc-devel] Switch to rJava - "buffer overflow detected" error

[Shraddha Pai]

Hello BioC community,
Our package netDx makes Java calls; to support Win machines and various
Java flavours I recently switched from system2() java calls to rJava.

Now my vignettes crash with a "buffer overflow detected" error, followed by
a core dump. Error below this email

I don't think it's a memory issue because in my zzz.R file I'm assigning
10Gb to Java heap space.

I would appreciate any insights to help debug the issue.All these vignettes
were working on OS X and Unix machines, with the previous system2("java")
call.

This is with netDx v1.3.1 which is in Bioc-devel release.

Thanks,Shraddha
