#125 type <long> not supported

[Anonymous]

Hi, It took me a bit of time to track this down but the on my system (Mac os X 10.6 with python 2.6.1) some integers are passed as long. This fails in the riterface conversion. To fix this I simply modified init.py in robjects folder and added the following line within the default_py2ri function:
elif isinstance(o, long):
res = rinterface.SexpVector([o, ], rinterface.INTSXP)
Thanks,

Thanks.

The branches 2.0.x and 2.1.x have now both the fix included
(so it will be in releases 2.0.8, and 2.1.0)

The final bugfix looking will is looking like follows:

elif isinstance(o, int) or isinstance(o, long):
res = rinterface.SexpVector([o, ], rinterface.INTSXP)

(I also noted that explicit unit tests for the default conversion methods are missing; they
will be added in the near future, hopefully)
