I'm preparing to submit my first package to CRAN, thanks to the help of too many people to mention. I've built and checked the package on Windows ( making a zip) and my path points to the 64 bit version of R. Everything builds and checks and the final warnings have been fixed. My package is pure R with no source from other languages. My questions are as follows. I've read the docs and just need a bit of clarification. 1. For submission I should just build source R CMD build mypkg which outputs a tar.gz 2. Do I have to/ how do I build for 32 bit? Thanks, Steve [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
Hi, By default, R CMD build makes sources, you have to use --binary if you want to get binaries. But you have to submit sources to the CRAN ftp server (and not binary). So just run a R CMD build.

Do I have to/ how do I build for 32 bit?AFAIK there is no need to care about 32/64 bit as long as your package is pure R code. Congrats to your new package! *S* -- Sascha Vieweg, saschaview at gmail.com
