Dear list,
When I do
#+source: test(myarg="blabla")
#+begin_src R :session :file test.pdf
plot(1:10, main=myarg)
#+end_src
I get the expected result:
#+results: test
[[file:test.pdf]]
but if I later do
#+call: test(myarg="hiho") :file test2.pdf
I still get a file named according to the header argument specified in
the original source block:
#+results: test(myarg="hiho")
[[file:test.pdf]]
instead of what I hoped for:
#+results: test(myarg="hiho")
[[file:test2.pdf]]
Is this intended? I think it would be very useful if I could change
the file name in '+calls' like this to get different plots for
different arguments.
Using:
GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.18.0) of
2009-09-27 on crested, modified by Debian
Org-mode version 7.01trans
Best regards,

Hi Henning,
This is a limitation of the current #+call: line syntax. The header
arguments you are passing at the end of the call line are being applied
to the call line, not to the original R code block. This has come up
before and the proposed solution is to allow passing arguments directly
through to the called code block, using a syntax like
#+call: eight[:session *R*]() :results vector
in which case the ":results vector" header argument is applied to the
call line, and the ":session *R*" header argument is passed through to
the called R code block (in the above case named "eight").
So, while what you want is not currently possible, it should be so in
the future, it's just a question of when...
Best -- Eric
