Error creating or reading DataFrames

[leseixas]

Hi,

I'm having a problem trying do define or read csv file with DataFrames.jl.

Every time that I try to do this, the following is shown:

julia> w = DataFrame()
Error showing value of type DataFrame:
ERROR: tty_size not defined
in show at /Users/lseixas/.julia/DataFrames/src/dataframe/show.jl:440
in show at /Users/lseixas/.julia/DataFrames/src/dataframe/show.jl:439
in anonymous at show.jl:1040
in with_output_limit at show.jl:1017
in showlimited at show.jl:1039

in display at multimedia.jl:149
in print_response at REPL.jl:130
in print_response at REPL.jl:118
in anonymous at REPL.jl:475

or

julia> w = readtable("output.csv")
Error showing value of type DataFrame:
ERROR: tty_size not defined

The error is actually in showing the DataArray. If you update to the latest Julia it should be fixed.

I updated the packages with

Pkg.update()

and try to do the same, but I still have that:

julia> w = DataFrame()
Error showing value of type DataFrame:
ERROR: tty_size not defined
in show at /Users/lseixas/.julia/DataFrames/src/dataframe/show.jl:440
in show at /Users/lseixas/.julia/DataFrames/src/dataframe/show.jl:439

The problem is that the package is newer than Julia itself. You have to update your installation of Julia, not the package.

This issue is because DataFrames has been updated for the deprecation of tty_rows and tty_cols in JuliaLang/julia#7297. The assumption is that people that use the prerelease version of Julia, update often.

Yes, after 0.3 releases I'm hoping to split DataFrames into development and 0.3 stable releases, so that all development happens on a branch that most users won't be working with.
