Large Number formatting

[shingav]

There seems to be an issue when large numbers, for eg:, 500005, is being sent to CouchDB. It basically fails with a bad response. More googling leads me to a similar issue being discussed here - ramnathv/rCharts#141.

Is there any solution possible from the R4CouchDB as temporary or a permanent fix?

Here is a more elaborate explanation - ramnathv/rCharts#141 (comment)

with RJSONIO_1.0-3 I get valid JSON for both:

> a = 700005
> b = toJSON(a)
> b
[1] "[  7e+05 ]"
> a = 700004
> b = toJSON(a)
> b
[1] "[  7e+05 ]"

However the number of digits are indeed problematic. Therfore I generated R4CouchDB_0.3.3 and added a digits param for the function cdbIni(). I set the default to 7 (see digits)

Thank You. I will pick up this build soon and make necessary changes to my code.
