verbosity won't turn off after setting to `TRUE` with `on`

I seem to be unable to turn off verbosity for data.table after using on. I'm using RStudio v1.0.136 and data.table v1.10.0.

I originally executed this statement from the data table vignettes:

setindex(flights, origin)
flights["JFK", on = "origin", verbose = TRUE][1:5]

I then turned verbosity back off, both by running this command again with verbose = FALSE and by manually turning them off via options("datatable.verbose" = FALSE). I also checked R's own verbosity setting via options(), which is also FALSE.

Since running that first command, irrespective of the verbosity settings, every time I save my code file (:w) and seemingly at some random points in between, I see output like this:

Calculated ad hoc index in 0.006 secs
Starting bmerge ...done in 0 secs
Calculated ad hoc index in 0.005 secs
Starting bmerge ...done in 0 secs
Calculated ad hoc index in 0.005 secs
Starting bmerge ...done in 0 secs
Calculated ad hoc index in 0.005 secs
Starting bmerge ...done in 0 secs
Calculated ad hoc index in 0.005 secs
Starting bmerge ...done in 0.001 secs

If I detach the data.table package they stop. I don't know if this is a bug or if there's some setting I'm unaware of, but I'm learning toward the former.

Any ideas?

I tried also re-doing the fread to manually specify verbose = FALSE but no luck:

> flights <- fread("R files/data.table vignettes/flights14.csv", verbose = FALSE)
Calculated ad hoc index in 0.006 secs
Starting bmerge ...done in 0 secs
Calculated ad hoc index in 0.002 secs
Starting bmerge ...done in 0 secs
Calculated ad hoc index in 0.007 secs
Starting bmerge ...done in 0 secs
> getOption('datatable.verbose')
[1] FALSE

You are in the wrong forum. This is DataTables - an entirely different project from data.table.

Yes, you'd need to get in touch with RStudio support to help resolve this issue. I'm afraid this isn't something we can help with.

Hi guys,

Sorry about that – what a dumbo! The interminable debugging messages evidently drove me insane with rage and I failed to make the distinction between data.table and DataTables.

Happy jQuerying,

Mario

No problem. Good luck.
