Good morning all I am trying to use R2admb and have the following very simple example. The *.tpl is included below. I am a Windows 7 user, using R3.01. //Function1.tpl //********************************* PARAMETER_SECTION init_number x; objective_function_value C; PROCEDURE_SECTION C= pow(x-5,2); //********************************* I am running the example using three different methods 1. from DOS 2. From Emacs 3. From within R 1. from DOS admb Function1 Function1 This runs correctly and works 2. From Emacs I "Translate", "Build" and "Run" the file and it works correctly 3. From R #Using the following code require(R2admb) fn="Function1" setup_admb() #outputs the following [1] "c:\\ADMB\\admb101-gcc452-win64" compile_admb(fn, verbose=T) #I set 'verbose =T' to see whats happening #last error line = 'collect2: ld returned 1 exit status' #cant run this part of the code run_admb(fn) #Error in run_admb(fn) : #executable Function1.exe not found: did you forget to compile it? Note that if I first compile the tpl file using DOS and then run the following from R, that everything works. run_admb(fn) #to run the executable results <- read_admb(fn) results clean_admb(fn) DOES ANYONE KNOW WHY compile_admb(fn, verbose=T) DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY? //Function1.tpl DATA_SECTION PARAMETER_SECTION init_number x; objective_function_value C; PRELIMINARY_CALCS_SECTION PROCEDURE_SECTION C= pow(x-5,2); ________________________________ UNIVERSITY OF CAPE TOWN This e-mail is subject to the UCT ICT policies and e-mai...{{dropped:9}}
