[BioC] affy - read.celfile

[Wolfgang Huber]

read.celfile (from package affy version 1.1.0) keeps hanging with cel files exported from dChip version 1.2. I am not sure how standards-conform the dChip-export is, but in any case it would seem useful for read.celfile to produce an intelligible error message rather than just hanging.

I managed to work around this by commenting the lines
  ff@masks <- .Call("getIndexExtraFromCEL", ...
  ff@outliers <- .Call("getIndexExtraFromCEL", ...


Wolfgang.
