JGR - Java GUI for R
JGR 1.5 is provided in binary form for Windows and Mac OS X 10.4.4 (and above). It can be installed on other platforms from sources (see below). JGR Version 1.5 requires R 2.5.0 or higher.
JGR for Windows and Mac OS X consists of two parts: JGR R package which is available from CRAN and JGR launcher. The latter is a small program that starts JGR from its R package. It can be also used to install all necessary packages.
Consider updating JGR from CRAN (e.g. via update.packages()) periodically to have the latest bugfixes etc.
Mac OS X 10.4.+ download:
- universal binary for R 2.5.0 or higher : JGR.dmg (ca. 73kB, updated 2008/07/24)
Mac OS X 10.6.+ download:
- universal binary for R 2.5.0 or higher : JGR-1.6-SL.dmg (ca. 66kB, updated 2009/09/21)
Mac OS X 10.3 users: you can still use the above binary, but please install all necessary packages manually before you start JGR:
install.packages(c("rJava","JavaGD","iplots","JGR"),type="source")
Windows 9x/.../XP download:
- binary for R 2.5.0 or higher: jgr.exe (ca. 25kB, updated 2008/07/24)
Linux download:
If you are using one of the most popular Linux distributions, read our Linux tips page. First, make sure you have R shared library (libR.so, i.e. R was compiled with --enable-R-shlib). Then simply run in R (possibly as root for system-wide installation):
install.packages("JGR",dep=TRUE)
library(JGR)
JGR()
RForge:
- here you find the latest JGR R package: http://rforge.net/JGR/files
The run script is generated automatically, see the instruction during the above process.
Note: If you encounter a problem when loading rJava on a unix platform, please make sure that your Java is set up properly and R is configured with Java support - in R 2.4.0 or higher simply run the following as root:
R CMD javareconf
Required Java version: Windows and Mac OS X: JDK 1.4 or higher, Linux/Solaris: JDK 1.5 or higher (JDK 5.0 in Sun's notation), 64-bit Linux: JDK 1.6 beta or higher (JDK 6.0 beta 2 in Sun's notation). Other Java distributions (IBM, Blackdown, GIJ, ..) are supported as long as they are compatible.
