Dear R community, I am running R 2.0.1 on a Windoze XP OS. I recently upgraded from R 1.9x to 2.0.1 and I am currently upgrading a my personal function packages. My other packages compiled without a hitch but I am having a difficult time with my largest package. Can someone please help me with the following error message "Error in parse(file, n, text, prompt) : syntax error on line

Has anyone had success building a package on a windows machine? I am trying the following command with no luck (perhaps my flags are incorrect?). At this point I am stuck. Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi all, I am wondering if anyone has problem installing 'knncat' package. I tried to install using 'Rcmd INSTALL knncat_1.1.1.tar.gz', error message appeared. I attached the message in the end. I allso tried to install from RGui, but it was not listed. Thanks in advance. Regards, jenny ---------- Making package knncat ------------ adding build stamp to DESCRIPTION

Hi folks, I apologise if this is in the documentation somewhere, but I can't seem to find it. I also did a search of CRAN without any success. I'm using R-1.8.1 (pre-compiled) on Windows 2000 with Rtools and mingw 2.0.0 (which includes gcc/g++ 3.2). I'm trying to link some C++ code from another application to R using the .Call interface and am experiencing some problems. I was

Hi All, I'm using R1.8.1 on Windows XP. I'm having trouble producing an R library from source code. A colleague has written the source code, in Unix. I've copied the source code across to Windows (with the help files, data files, description and index) and am trying to compile it into a library. I've "sourced" each of the *.r files and they appear to work.

Dear all I am trying to create a package in R 1.9.0 and I a getting an error message which I do not understand.

I just installed the R-patched 1.4.0 and for some reason I now have trouble compiling R packages - I could compile it a few weeks ago with R 1.4.0 released in December. This only happens if I put the --binary option in. For example: Rcmd build --binary cw returns the error: make: Entering directory `/cygdrive/c/PROGRA~1/R/RW1040/src/gnuwin32' make DLLNM= \ -C C:/MyRWork/cw PKG=cw

I'm using R 1.4.1 under Windows 2000 and am experiencing difficulty installing a package. I've included an example output using Rcmd build, but the same problem occurs with Rcmd check and Rcmd INSTALL. The error (make[1]: /bin/sh.exe: Command not found) is not a new one - it's referenced in readme.packages among other locations. I've placed a copy of sh.exe in C:\bin, but it

We are trying to compile and run the ttest.c example that comes with R (in C:\Program Files\R\rw1081\src\library\windlgs\src\ttest.c). After compiling it with MS Visual C++ we load the DLL with dyn.load. So far it seems good, but when we try to call it from R (after running C:\Program Files\R\rw1081\src\library\windlgs\R\windlgs.R) R crashes. We have tried changing the exports from DLL but have

I've been trying to create/load/call a dll from R-1.8.1 on Windows without much success. I've been able to at least load the library on FreeBSD (1.8.1). I've been able to perform this before using DLL that weren't created using RCMD SHLIB, but simply compiling under MS DevStudio. C:\optflikam>rcmd shlib --output=optflikam.dll as47.f as197.f flikam.c g77 -O2 -Wall -c as47.f

Dear R experts I am running a negative-binomial GLM (glm.nb) to test the null hypotheses that species 1 and 2 are equally abundant between site 1 and site2, and between each other. So, I have a 2x2 factorial design with factors Site (1,2) and Taxon (1,2). Since the Site:Taxon interaction is significant, I need to do the equivalent to a "post-hoc test" for ANOVA, however, the same tests

I've been comparing variables among objects (taxa) related by known trees, using phylogentically independent contrasts in the ape package, and want to move on to more complex models e.g. by using gls with appropriate correlation terms. My trees contain lots of (hard) polytomies and information about ancestors, which I've been including- creating fully dichotomous trees by using zero branch

I would like to revisit a problem that was discussed previously (see quoted discussion below). I am trying to do the same thing, using a string to indicate a column with the same name. I am making "foo" a string taken from a list of names. It matches the row where "item" = 5, and picks the corresponding "taxon" > foo <- list$taxon[match(5,list$item)] Let's

I don't see what's missing in my statements to add rows to a data frame and someone else will probably see what needs to be added to the statements. The data frame has this structure (without any data): $ PHYLUM : chr $ SUBPHYLUM : chr $ SUPERCLASS : chr $ CLASS : chr $ SUBCLASS : chr $ INFRACLASS : chr $ SUPERORDER : chr $ ORDER : chr $ SUBORDER :

Dear R-ers: Recognizing that it is better to remain silent and have people think you stupid than to speak and remove any doubt, I fear that I must speak nonetheless. I am having the Devil's own time trying to make a simple R package for my own use. Yes, I have perused the FAQs and searched the archives. Yes, I have read "Writing R Extensions" and eventually divined what Rcmd

I am trying to write my first R package. The file 'Creating R packages' instructs me to create a 'man' subdirectory for the help files (with an Rd extension). However when I look at other libraries I do not find a man subdirectory (I find html dirs). Also I am told to include a keyword from the KEYWORDS.db. However this file is not on my system? Any suggestions? I am working
