R help - Dec 2010 - R CMD build/install: wrong Rtools include path is passed to g++

Never mind.  Found the solution: the package coded the rtools path in 
Makevars.win.  So I was able to compile (but have another problem though).  But 
not sure if there is an environment name for rtools, maybe RTOOLS_HOME ...

Thanks.

Hi:

I am trying to build/install rparallel source package in win32 using Rtools/R 
CMD.  However, R CMD build or install fails.  The R CMD build output shows that 
the path of Rtools/MinGW/include is wrong in g++ -I. How can I pass/configure 
the correct include path to R CMD? Tried this in both R 2.12 and 2.11 with 
compatible Rtools and Miktex/chm helper. Neither succeeded.

Note, the R/Rtools/MinGW setting works fine if the package doesn't have
C/C++
code.  I was able to install my own R package which doesn't have C/C++ code.

Actually, this is described in "R Installation and Administration".

Best,
Uwe Ligges
