[R] multiple cores/building fails

[Gregory Ryslik]

Hi,

That seems to be the case. Is there a way that I can put an object in some global place where all the workers can access it?

Doing the following at the start (before I make multiple workers) does not work:
Assign('global.control', control, globalenv())

Thanks for your help!

Kind regards,
Greg

I recently tried to parallelize it (1 core/per tree) and when I run the code I get an error saying the object "control" was not found. I do have an object control in my code but it always works fine as long as I am not running it on multiple cores (which I am doing via the help of sleigh and the 'nws' package).

Perhaps you forgot to populate the object to the client nodes?
Hard to say without any reproducible example code.
