Problem longing

Hi All :
I can not loging using betfairR package on Betfair (I would like to point out that I can do that using my own code)
I get

"Error in if (.xmlp("errorCode", v) != "OK") return(FALSE) :
  argument is of length zero"

Checking the source code "login.Rd" I could see that the code seams to be using the old Betfair API "https://api.betfair.com/global/v3/BFGlobalService" and not the new one "https://api.betfair.com/exchange/betting/json-rpc/v1"

Many thanks Guillermo

Hi -

Yes the package is now out of date and we will be removing it from the website.

Here is an up to date package for R that works, however:

We also like the Perl package:

Hope this helps
