similar to: compiling R from source for windows

I know I am going to catch alot of comments for this question but I am really stuck. If there is some written documentation that I have missed please redirect me. I want to build 'R' from source on a Windows Platform. The main reasons are that I want to check out a debugging some existing packages so I need to build with debug symbols and I want to check out a 64-bit version of

I have justed upgraded R v1.7.0 on Windows NT 4 and have installed the latest RMySQL (version 0.5-1)and DBI (version 0.1-5) packages. When I issue the following commands (tactfully adjusted) R just crashes and disappears, any ideas? require(RMySQL) m <- dbDriver("MySQL") con <- dbConnect(m, dbname="xxx", user="xxx", password="xxx",

Yes, lots of packages do use C/Fortran code ... it would be great if there were more packages that are "pure R" especially since the advent of S4 classes and namespaces. Is it worth suggesting that we create a designation "pure R" for packages that have no external source code and encourage more of these? Indeed, now the number of packages is so big could they be classified to

Dear r-devel list members, It's been several years since I last built a custom Windows installer for R, and despite my notes and the instructions in Sections 3.1.7 and D.4 of the R Installation and Administration Manual, I've run into a problem, receiving the following error message: ----------- snip ----------- C:\R\src\R-2.11.1\src\gnuwin32\installer>make myR

It concerns trival diagonal matrices: > diag(1) [,1] [1,] 1 > diag(rnorm(1)) <0 x 0 matrix> > diag(rnorm(1),nrow=1) [,1] [1,] 0.4843697 There's an obvious work around... but I thought it was worth notifying the list.

Hi, I followed the example in "Writing R Extensions" to create a shared object in Windows, using the command R CMD SHLIB X.cc X_main.cc This was encountered: ../src/gnuwin32/MkRules:155: warning: overriding commands for target '.c.d' ../src/gnuwin32/MkRules:143: warning: ignoring old commands for target '.c.d' ../src/gnuwin32/MkRules:171: warning: overriding commands

I have been building a package around a sequence of S4 classes which I have coded in separate *.R files in the "./R" subdirectory of the package. The package builds without error, but when I load it in R I get: Error in reconcilePropertiesAndPrototype(name, slots, prototype, superClasses) : Class "xxxx" extends an undefined class ("yyyyyy" I guess R is trying to

I tried for the first time to build R from source on Windows, where I got the source code via svn. Per the Installation and Administration manual, I altered src\gnuwin32\MkRules so it had the the locally correct paths to HTML Help Workshop and Inno Setup 5. I also set USE_SVNVERSION=yes, as suggested in MkRules itself. Then, while in the directory src/gnuwin32 I ran 'make all

Hello, I have been having a great deal of difficulty using R CMD SHLIB to generate the .so file from my C file. I am using Win XP, and I have cygwin installed. I updated to the latest MinGW make files in order to get rid of some error. But I still get a few warnings (shown below), and no shared file (.so file) produced at the end.

I am attempting to build a customized R installer on Windows, using the Inno Setup installer. I am following the instructions in Section 3.1.8 of the R Installation and Administration Manual ("Building the Inno Setup installer"), which includes the following passage: An alternative way to customize the installer starting with a binary distribution is to first make a full

Does anybody have a tuned Rblas.dll compiled against ALTLAS for a dual Xeon system? Unfortunately, we have very strict security that does not allow compilers of any sort on production desktops - we only have Pentium III development PCs.

I have been having problems making the recommended packages under windows NT when WINHELP is set to NO. It seems to go ahead and create the chm files and then fall over with an error. The base packages work fine. Clearly I can fix this myself messily, but I thought it might be useful feedback. Regards, John Marsland _ platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch i386 os mingw32 system

Hi all, I have been experiencing difficulties building R (be this 2.13.1, beta, devel, or rc) on Windows 7 64bit. I believe I am following the manual religiously, and don't think I am doing anything differently from the many successful build attempts in the past. Unzipping the tarball works fine, but when I invoke make, I get (shown for R-rc, same for 2-13.1):

I'd like to make MikTeX the default TeX package in 2.2.0, but we still need to let people use other packages. The problem is that MikTeX wants a command line option --include-directory $R_HOME/share/texmf, while other packages specify includes via environment variables, and barf when they see the unexpected option. The choice should be controlled by the user's settings in the MkRules
