Subject: Re: [R] plot.hclust point to older version

You probably have a local copy of an old version of plot.hclust or plot.dendrogram in your global environmenet or another package that masks the one in package:stats.  E.g., I fired up R-2.14.2 and copied those 2 plot methods to .GlobalEnv and then saved by workspace when quitting R.  I then fired up R-3.1.1, which loads the workspace saved by the older version of R.  I get:

> objects()
[1] "plot.dendrogram" "plot.hclust"
> plot(hclust(dist(c(2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19))))
Error in .Internal(dend.window(n, merge, height, hang, labels, ...)) :
  there is no .Internal function 'dend.window'
> traceback()
2: plot.hclust(hclust(dist(c(2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19))))
1: plot(hclust(dist(c(2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19))))

Note how calling traceback() after an error gives more information about the source of the error.

To fix this, get rid of the .RData file that is being loaded when R starts.

Here you are. I expect most folks won't get the error.

N   = 100; M = 1000
mat = matrix(1:(N*M) + rnorm(N*M,0,.5),N,M)
h   = hclust(as.dist(1-cor(mat)))
plot(h)

Error in .Internal(dend.window(n, merge, height2, hang, labels, ...)) :
   there is no .Internal function 'dend.window'



Thanks again

Reproducible example???

(I know from noddink about hclust, but I tried the example from the help
page and it plotted without any problem.)

cheers,

Hello fellow R users,

I have recently updated to R 3.1.2. When trying to plot an hclust
object to generate the dendrogram I get the following error:

Error in .Internal(dend.window(n, merge, height2, hang, labels, ...)) :
    there is no .Internal function 'dend.window'


I am indeed using R3.1.2 but my understanding is that the .Internal API
to the C code is no longer used. I have tried detaching the stats
package and restarting R to no avail.
I would love any help from any wiser guRus.

Please keep communications on-list; there are others on the list far more likely to be able to help you than I.  I am cc-ing this reply to the list.

For what it's worth, I can run your example without error.

As to how to track down what is going wrong on your system, I'm afraid I have no idea.  Someone on the list may have some thoughts.

cheers,

Rolf Turner
