R help - Jul 2012 - an optimization problem and installation of the package Rcplex

Hello,



I am an R user who wants to solve an optimization problem. To do so, I tried to
install the package Rcplex on my computer (Windows7-64), so I did the same as
installation
Instructions<http://www.geeklog.net/docs/english/install.html> and edited
the file "Makevars.win" by adding the path "C:/Program
Files/IBM/ILOG/CPLEX_Studio_Preview124/cplex/include" (where the trial
version of cplex has been installed on my computer) to the lines
"PKG_CPPFLAGS=-I<CPLEX_DIR>/include" and
"PKG_LIBS=-L<CPLEX_DIR>/lib/x86_windows_vs2008/stat_mda -lcplex111
-lm". Then, I just tried to install the package as usual by R with the
command "install.packages" but there is an error as following


"       Installing package(s) into
'C:/Users/shima/Documents/R/win-library/2.14'
        (as 'lib' is unspecified)
        * installing *source* package 'Rcplex' ...
        ERROR: configuration failed for package 'Rcplex'
        * removing 'C:/Users/shima/Documents/R/win-library/2.14/Rcplex'
        Warning messages:
        1: running command 'C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-214~1.0/bin/x64/R CMD INSTALL -l
"C:/Users/shima/Documents/R/win-library/2.14"  
"c:/temp/Rcplex"' had status 1
        2: In install.packages("c:/temp/Rcplex", type =
"source", repos = NULL) :
          installation of package 'c:/temp/Rcplex' had non-zero exit
status    "

and it does not work I wonder what the problem is!? Could you please guild me
how I can solve this problem? Thank you in advance.

Regards,
Shima.

You really need to discuss this with the package maintainer (as the 
posting guide asked).

But there are several 'optimization' packages on CRAN which do have 
Windows' binary versions that would therefore be easier to use.
