Dear List, I have been experimenting with building packages from sources, having previously relied upon the binaries. I downloaded and installed all the tools suggested in http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/Rtools/ , including ActivePerl 5.6.1.631. I also downloaded the HTML Help workshop exe and installed it. During install though, a message popped up to say that I had a newer version of the

Dear R-help, I have encountered some errors when trying to compile R-1.3.1 from source on my WinNT4SP6 laptop (PII w/128MB RAM). I have installed all the tools following the instruction in src/gnuwin32/INSTALL, with the exception that the mingw compiler I have might be a bit older (they are the ones recommended for R-1.3.0, I believe). I have also compiled the ATLAS libraries from source using

I was trying to learn cross building an R pcakage for windows on my linux machine. I picked a relatively small library gee to test. I downloaded the cross-tools and put them in my path, jyan at ludwig:/a3/jyan/src/R-1.2.1/src/gnuwin32$ echo $PATH /home/jyan/cross-tools/bin:/home/jyan/cross-tools/i386-mingw32msvc/bin: /usr/lib:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games Following the

Hi, If I want to build R-patched from source (on Windows), do I need to edit Makefile and/or MkRules at all? I have followed all instructions in the INSTALL file (under R-patched/src/gnuwin32/), as well as downloaded all the files from http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/Rtools/ . My PATH variable has been modified accordingly. Now, with the only change to MkRules I made was to modify the Tcl/Tk

Full_Name: Allan Stokes Version: 2.8.1 OS: XP Submission from: (NULL) (24.108.0.245) I've just spent a hellish six hours trying to create my own R package with a bare bones "hello world" R function inside. I was able to create a package.tar.gz file eventually with much perseverance. My remaining problem is that when I try to install my simple package under RGui, it hangs.

Dear All, I'm a real beginner in R(a windows version) and I'm trying to install the principal curves packages(from http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/PACKAGES.html#princurve ) by using the following comand: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- shell("Rcmd INSTALL d:/bin/cran/princurve").

Dear All: I encountered and apparently overcame problems following Yan and Rossini?s procedure for "Building Microsoft Windows Versions of R and R packages under Intel Linux" (http://cran.r-project.org/doc/contrib/cross-build.pdf): I have successfully cross-compiled R packages for Windows on a FreeBSD 4.10 i386 system. My revisions to Makefile-rcb (http://cran.r-

Dear R-helpers, I'm learning how to compile R packages with fortran routines and use the acepack source as an example. After some hiccups (Guido told me about the need to set make_mode=UNIX) I got to the following: `make pkg-acepack' runs without error (see below), but it does not * compile any .f file in acepack/src * (hence) try to create any dll file or libs (I'm

Had some fun today, and thought it might be a good idea to share and possibly for inclusion to R/src/gnuwin32/README.packages . Wine/linux : while R, ActiveState Perl, mingw all works alright under wine, the blocking issue is Rtool's cygwin dependency. forking (as much of make and sh is forking sub-processes) on posix-on-win32-on-posix currently doesn't work.

Hi all I am trying to package a library in R 1.6.1 (Windoze XP). I have read the document "Writing R extensions" and think I have done things correctly (though apparently not). I have searched the mail archives for help to no avail. I also posted a few days ago and thanks to Peter Dalgaard I have managed to focus my search for errors. I am trying to create a library in R. I run the

The trailing backslash seems to be the culprit. After looking at rw1020\bin\INSTALL, I noticed $pkg =~ s/\/$//; which I assume is to strip the trailing slash from a package name before obtaining the package name and cleaning out its directory I added $pkg =~ s/\\$//; immediately after this line. Rerunning Rcmd INSTALL C:\rw1011\src\library\bqtl\ with that change seemed to work OK

Hi I am having problems innstalling new packages in R on my vista system. The error message was Error in zip.unpack(pkg, tmpDir) : cannot open file 'C:/Program Files/R/R-2.4.1/library/file195610e4/tree/chtml/tree.chm When I tried to find a solution to the problem it became clear to me that I was not the only one having the same problem. I tried deleting the file from the .zip file and

Jun hi again! Sorry for bothering. Although I had no problem with building Windows package under Linux, I noticed that man pages are not processed as they should or maybe I have a problem with my setup. My package is called 'GeneticsPed'. Instead of HTML or text files I just got a GeneticsPed.Rd.gz in man directory of a package (this is within GeneticsPed_0.1.zip file!). The file

Hello! I am building a package, which includes also one Fortran subroutine, which works fine if I compile it as a shared library and load it into R via dyn.load(). However, when I launch R CMD check it doesn't stop with checking examples. It's just doing and doing ... I pasted the whole output from R CMD check. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm still using R 2.0.1.

Greetings: This should be easy but it isn't. I have a home-brew package that works fine, with compiled html help pages, all 150 of them. I want to make a similar package but not from scratch since only a half-dozen routines are changed. So I created a new directory, copied the old package into it and changed the name to newSTUFF. I changed the names of all help pages too, as weill

Dear R-helpers, I'm having trouble compiling R packages from source on Win2K. I installed R 1.7.1beta [1] on my win2k machine [2], downloaded the fields package as source [3] and tried but failed to install the package [4]. I get the same problem with other packages, so it doesn't appear to be limited to fields. Installation of precompiled packages seems to work fine. I've been

R-helpers, Beginner in R language, I have a problem to install a package (multiv) in R for Windows 98 (R-Gui) First I have got the multiv.zip file from the CRAN precompiled contributed packages for Windows and put this file in C:/Program Files/rw1022. in R-Gui I tried to install it as following > install.packages("C:/Program Files/rw1022/multiv.zip") I received the following
