[BioC] Re: justGCRMA and binary .CDF file

[James MacDonald]

You need the _probe_tab file. If this is a standard chip, you can find
this on the Affy website.

Best,

Jim

I want to run justGCRMA, which requires both a cdf and a probe package. 
The Bioconductor MetaData repository does not contain a package for my 
chip.  I do have a binary .CDF file. 

I am able to create a cdf package using make.cdf.package();

But how do I create the probe package?  I've tried using
makeProbePackage
() from the matchprobes library.  But this assumes a text datafile as 
input.
