Indexing in pdata.frame not working as it should be

[amani]

Hello,

I have the following snippet of code:

> df <-data.frame(name=c(rep("r1",152), rep("r2",152), rep("r3", 152)), year=c(1:152, 1:152, 1:152), y = y, var = x)  #tai
>   b <- pdata.frame(df, index=c("name","year"))
>   print(b)
> ```

a sample of the print function is the following:
     

name year y var.1 var.2 var.3 var.4

the output os printed in the eclipse console, I am using renjin to do that. 
any ideas why the index is not taking the regions (r1, r2, r3) into account and giving its own indexing (1, 2, 3)?

Thank you!

Hi, could you edit to provide your example as a reproducible example, called a reprex, please, and correct the error?

library(plm)
df <-data.frame(name=c(rep("r1",152), rep("r2",152), rep("r3", 152)), year=c(1:152, 1:152, 1:152), y = y, var = x)  #tai
#> Error in data.frame(name = c(rep("r1", 152), rep("r2", 152), rep("r3", : object 'y' not found
b <- pdata.frame(df, index=c("name","year"))
#> Error in pdata.frame(df, index = c("name", "year")): variable name does not exist (individual index)
print(b)
#> Error in print(b): object 'b' not found
