[Rsiena-help] Possible error with multi-core estimation in rev. 119

[Ruth M. Ripley]

Dear Guido,

As Tom says, I am on holiday. But I know what the bug is and it should not 
exist in RSienaTest. Please try using RSienaTest from R-forge. It should 
give the same answers for one core and not fail for more than one.

Alternatively, if you are able to unpack the tar ball and build the 
package yourself, try making a one line change to R/simstatsc.r. After 
line 1762, which is

nGroup <- ff$nGroup

add

types <- ff$types

and rebuild.

I will sort RSiena out when I get back to work.

Regards,

Ruth
