similar to: Perl on Windows XP for Rcmd build

Indeed, there is no file named "dlltool" anywhere around here! So, at last I am beginning to suspect that my collection of tools is incomplete. What I have got is "rw1020sp.zip" and "http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/RWin/tools.zip". These are properly istalled, I think. readme.packages says "If your package has no C nor Fortran nor C++ sources, see `Simple

I?m getting nowhere with this. From the website below I clicked on the ActivePerl 5.26 button which seems to lead me into creating projects on the Cloud rather than downloading the software to my hard drive. https://www.activestate.com/products/perl/downloads/ Can someone give me some advise? What the website is trying to do seems rather shady. Thanks, Philip [[alternative HTML version

Dear listers, I have developped a set of functions that I would like to package on a Windows XP plateform for some friends (this would be more simple than to deliver them as a source text file without handy help). I am working under Windows XP. Of course I have gone through the manual "Writing R extension" and try to sort out what a most simple "packaging" for beginner

Hi, What OS are you on? It has been years since I used ActiveState, but it looks like you now need to create an account with them prior to downloading the installation files. They seem to give you the option of creating an account with them, or using Github. I would opt for the former, even though I have a Github account. If you are on Windows, an alternative Perl distribution is Strawberry

I'm trying to make sure my R package will install properly (build help files, etc) and when I try to run the rcmd check (or any rcmd option) I get the following error. Does dcf.pm stand for perl module? If not, why do I get this message? C:\systemfit\r_code>rcmd check --help Can't locate R/Dcf.pm in @INC (@INC contains: c \PROGRA~1\r\rw1041\share\perl; /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/cygwin-multi

Dear R users, With package.skeleton() i have produced successfully my .Rd??s, ... Now i will run Rcmd check on ..\R\bin\ But Rcmd check (and build) on my Windows XP does not work. It`s a problem with "perl". (Translated i get the message: The instruction Perl is either wrongly written or could not not be found.) In help("check") I found this: "These may not work

This is in Windows 98. The problem exists in both rw1021 and rw1023, using ActiveState Perl builds 620 and 626: C:\>Rcmd REMOVE --library=C:/R/Rlibs RBMDS Unknown option: library Usage: Rcmd REMOVE [options] pkgs Remove the add-on packages specified by pkgs from the default library tree (/library) or the tree specified via `--library'. Options: -l, --library=LIB remove packages

Hello! I have just read mails in thread <http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/devel/04a/0583.html> about problems with Cygwin and Rtools. I had the same problems and kept just the newest cygwin1.dll and things seem OK now. However I currently hit the problem with Perl (I have ActiveState and Cygwin Perl installed). When I tried to work with 'Rdconv' in Cygwin I get the following: $

I am trying to build a R 1.7 package under Windows NT. I created the DESCRIPTION file, the RD file and added the code to the R folder. I also downloaded and installed the Rtools package and have Perl 5.0. I know that Perl, Miktex, and gcc are working. I also have my PATH variable set correctly. I can fake install my package by removing the *.R from the code file, using Rcmd Rdconv to create

Hello everyone, I'm using R 1.5.1 on Windows. I chose the option 'Install Source Files' when installing R. The code below shows my use of the command SHLIB and the error I get.

I almost didn't believe in it anymore, but Rcmd INSTALL finally is working for me! Thanks to all who helped on this, especially to Guido Masarotto, Brian Ripley, John Fox, Peter Dalgaard, Uwe Ligges. Anyway, I do think the documentation is a bit confusing here (at least for me, I don't know if others have felt the same). It might be a good idea to add the essence of Brians and Guidos

Dear all, I have some C code using the zlib uncompress.

R users, I recently upgraded (?) to Windows XP from 2000. I am trying to build an R package. I have done this many times on my old system and I am not sure why it is not working in XP. To build the package I call a bat file that specifies all the necessary paths -- but the "build" file (which appears to be a perl script) is looking for a "src" subdirectory in the src

Prof. Ripley, Seems like mine is 629: c:\home>perl -v This is perl, v5.6.1 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread (with 1 registered patch, see perl -V for more detail) Copyright 1987-2001, Larry Wall Binary build 629 provided by ActiveState Tool Corp. http://www.ActiveState.com Built 12:27:04 Aug 20 2001 Will try a newer build and see.
