Yes, changing line 67 of SHLIB as Uwe suggested worked:
C:\TEMP>Rcmd SHLIB tryf.f
make[1]: `libR.a' is up to date.
rm -f -f tryf.a
ar cr tryf.a *.o
ranlib tryf.a
------- Building tryf.dll from tryf.a --------
echo LIBRARY tryf > tryf.def
echo EXPORTS >> tryf.def
nm tryf.a > Defs
sed -n '/^........ [BCDRT] _/s/^........ [BCDRT] _/ /p' Defs >>
tryf.def
rm -f Defs
gcc --shared -s -o tryf.dll tryf.def tryf.a -Lc:/progra~1/R/rw1031/src/
gnuwin32 -lg2c -Lc:/Rtools/ATLAS/lib/WinNT_PIIISSE1 -lcblas -lf77blas
-latlas -lR
Thanks very much for the (temporary) solution. The question is, could this
be a permanent fix?
Regards,
Andy
