I use Sweave and cacheSweave with pleasure.
Occasionally I have a document in which some section takes a really long time (like 20 minutes or something) and after processing I'd like to open up the objects it created and play around with them in an interactive session.
Does anyone know a method for doing that, presumably by fetching directly against the stashR database or something?
I would have preferred to put this as a comment, but i dont have an account here, so anyway. The easiest way to do this is probably to put save.image() statements at strategic points in the .Rnw file, so that all objects created at that point are saved. Then, one can open up a new instance of R and interact with the objects without altering the sweave file. HTH.
