Fatal RStudio error when loading {qdap}

[AlexChristensen]

Problem

Loading {qdap} causes RStudio to crash

Versions

qdap: 2.4.4 qdapDictionaries: 1.0.8 qdapRegex: 0.7.6 qdapTools: 1.3.4

R: 4.2.0 RStudio: 2022.2.1.461 Windows: 10 x64 build 22000

Things I've Tried

Removing and installing {qdap} from CRAN using (restarting R/RStudio in-between remove and install):

remove.packages("qdap")
install.packages("qdap")

Removing and installing {qdap} from GitHub using (restarting R/RStudio in-between remove and install):

devtools::install_github("trinker/qdap")

Loading required packages before loading {qdap} (all packages load OK until {qdap})

library(qdapDictionaries)
library(qdapRegex)
library(qdapTools)
library(RColorBrewer)

Loading {qdap} in R (not RStudio): Works! But not my preferred R GUI

I am having the same error

Same here.

Tried loading qdap with empty environment.

qdap 2.4.3

RStudio 2022.07.1+554 "Spotted Wakerobin" Release (7872775ebddc40635780ca1ed238934c3345c5de, 2022-07-22) for Windows Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) QtWebEngine/5.12.8 Chrome/69.0.3497.128 Safari/537.36

R version 4.2.0 (2022-04-22 ucrt) -- "Vigorous Calisthenics" Copyright (C) 2022 The R Foundation for Statistical Computing Platform: x86_64-w64-mingw32/x64 (64-bit)

Java Version 8 Update 351

JAVA_HOME set before loading qdap:

> Sys.setenv(JAVA_HOME="C:/Program Files/Java/jre1.8.0_351")
> 
> Sys.getenv("JAVA_HOME")
[1] "C:/Program Files/Java/jre1.8.0_351"

64-bit versions R and JAVA used.

Just like mentioned in the initial post, qdap loads outside RStudio. Below warnings are returned in this case:

Warning messages:
1: package 'qdap' was built under R version 4.2.1
2: package 'qdapRegex' was built under R version 4.2.1
3: package 'qdapTools' was built under R version 4.2.1

Will try updating R from 4.2.0 to 4.2.1.

Attempt to add qdap:: prefix to one of the qdap functions in my code resulted in a FATAL RStudio crash - IDE become unusable.

RStudio kept crashing after restart and removal of .Rhistory and .RData files.

Reinstalling...

@mjaniec2013 : you mean you're reinstalling, RStudio, all of R, qdap, or some combination of those?

@mjaniec2013 : you mean you're reinstalling, RStudio, all of R, qdap, or some combination of those?

Both, actually + updating R & refreshing all packages installed.

Cleaning RStudio required deleting user files in AppData folders, etc.

All the above should be completed now. Will test qdap again, soon.
