编辑（2）：为了使这完全可重复（希望如此），我创建了一个新的库（称为DUMMY），添加了xts（0.10-2.1）作为唯一的依赖项，从github blotter repo添加了IBM.RData文件只有文件（.R，.Rdata，.Rda或其他），重新启动R，只将该库加载到全局环境中，我得到以下sessionInfo（）：

现在，当我调用特定的IBM xts对象行时，我得到了
> class(IBM)
[1] "xts" "zoo"
> IBM[1,]
IBM.Open IBM.High IBM.Low IBM.Close IBM.Volume IBM.Adjusted
> IBM[21,]
IBM.Open IBM.High IBM.Low IBM.Close IBM.Volume IBM.Adjusted
> IBM[20,]
IBM.Open IBM.High IBM.Low IBM.Close IBM.Volume IBM.Adjusted
> IBM[2,]
IBM.Open IBM.High IBM.Low IBM.Close IBM.Volume IBM.Adjusted
原始问题：
突然间，我似乎正在观察xts对象的奇怪行为，并且它导致了斑点（和量子）函数不再正常工作。甚至演示都失败了。作为参考，我使用xts_0.10-2.1，blotter_0.14.2＆amp; zoo_1.8-2。如果我使用来自IBM的吸墨器的内部数据，引用IBM的第一行会产生列名，而不是第一行的IBM价格数据。
> IBM[1,]
IBM.Open IBM.High IBM.Low IBM.Close IBM.Volume
IBM.Adjusted
供参考，
> dim(IBM)
[1] 21 6
要获取第一行IBM价格数据，我需要引用xts对象的前两行。
> IBM[1:2,]
IBM.Open IBM.High IBM.Low IBM.Close
2007-01-03 22:00:00 97.25 98.79 96.88 98.31
IBM.Volume IBM.Adjusted
2007-01-03 22:00:00 10524500 94.76
当我尝试引用IBM数据的最后一行时，我得到了
> IBM[nrow(IBM), ]
IBM.Open IBM.High IBM.Low IBM.Close IBM.Volume
IBM.Adjusted
如果我尝试引用最后两行IBM数据
> IBM[20:21,]
IBM.Open IBM.High IBM.Low IBM.Close
2007-01-31 22:00:00 98.97 99.18 97.96 99
IBM.Volume IBM.Adjusted
2007-01-31 22:00:00 6610700 95.43
如果我尝试使用tail，
> tail(IBM, 2)
IBM.Open IBM.High IBM.Low IBM.Close
2007-01-31 22:00:00 98.97 99.18 97.96 99

当我尝试从吸墨纸上运行amzn_test演示时，

Error in if (TxnDate < lastTxnDate) { : argument is of length zero
In addition: Warning messages:
1: In rm("portfolio.amzn_port", "account.amzn_acct", pos = .blotter) :

2: In rm("portfolio.amzn_port", "account.amzn_acct", pos = .blotter) :

我认为发生此错误是因为引用最后一行数据（其中lastTxnDate来自）会产生列名而不是最后一行数据，index（）将从中获取日期。有没有人见过这个？它刚刚开始发生在过去几天，所以最近的问题。谢谢你的帮助！
