Renjin can't load pckages

I'm a newbie with Renjin. I'm trying to use Renjin in a Java application. I'm trying to develop the example showed here.

I'm compiling with gradle, as recommended in the renjin's web page.

So, with gradle build all is ok when I run gradle build. 

Building with Renjin 0.8.2527
:compileJava UP-TO-DATE
:processResources UP-TO-DATE
:classes UP-TO-DATE
:jar UP-TO-DATE
:startScripts UP-TO-DATE
:distTar UP-TO-DATE

:assemble UP-TO-DATE
:compileTestJava UP-TO-DATE
:processTestResources UP-TO-DATE
:testClasses UP-TO-DATE
:test UP-TO-DATE
:check UP-TO-DATE
:build UP-TO-DATE

BUILD SUCCESSFUL

Total time: 1.954 secs

But, when I want run the application with gradle run I get this.

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

I've tried with different packages, with the same result. I searched the packages in the site http://packages.renjin.org/ and the packages exists, so I think isn't about availability.

Anyone had the same problem? And solved it?

Thanks in advance.

Solution

  • You need to add the a4base package to your project.

    With gradle, you can add the line:

    dependencies {
    compile "org.renjin.bioconductor:a4Base:1.27.0-b3"
}

    And Gradle will download the JAR and make it available to your application.

    You can read more about using R packages with Java applications here:
