Dear Uwe Ligges, There was really a problem with an irregular name of a help topic (%cin% - the % was the problem) as you said. With the new R Version and with the corrected Rd file all works fine. Thanks a lot for your help! Matthias > TEMPL Matthias wrote: > > > Hello, > > > > When building my package (R CMD check) following error > message occurs: > > ...

Hi, I have been developing a small package. It install under RedHat Linux 9.0 without a problem. However, I have a small problem under Windows XP. I am using R-1.8.0 on both systems and HTML Help Workshop 4.74.8702.0 on Windows XP. I created the package under Linux. When I try to install the package created under Linux in Windows XP using c:\rtest> rcmd install rtest I get the following

Until recently R 2.1.0 was called rw2010dev. I just visited http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/rdevel.html and noticed its now called rw2010alpha, not rw2010dev. I would like to use it without downloading all the libraries over again. Can I - just rename my rw2010dev folder (Windows XP) to rw2010alpha and then install rw2010alpha to that? or - install it in a separate

Hello, I've spent a while reading about configuring WINE for use with hhc.exe to create .chm files. These instructions almost work: http://code.google.com/p/htmlhelp/wiki/HHW4Wine But, when comparing the Windows-generated .chm to the Linux-generated .chm, the Linux-generated one does not have sorted or consolidated index entries. It seems that whatever part of the process is responsible for

Hi all, I'm seeing an error on Windows when I try to install a package to a package library path that starts with a digit. I can reproduce the error as follows using R-devel from Feb 24 on Windows advanced server: badLib = "c:\\badExample\\2\\foo" dir.create(badLib, recursive=TRUE) z = .libPaths() z = .libPaths(c(badLib, z)) z [1] "c:\\badExample\\2\\foo"

Hello, Apologies in advance if this should be in R-devel, not Rhelp. I did read through the R-devel thread started by Gabor Grothendieck in September of this year - I am getting the exact same error using a new computer that has XP installed, not vista, complaining that the file hhc.exe is not found. I have downloaded the hhc.exe to HTML Help Workshop dir in Program Files but it says that

Hi, I am getting the following error when using R CMD INSTALL ever since I upgraded to R-2.7.1: hhc: not found CHM compile failed: HTML Help Workshop not intalled? As indicated, the package is installed but without CHM help files. I have downloaded the latest version of Rtools and I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling HTML Help Workshop. I have also tried rebuilding the package several

Dear R users, I am having problems building R packages in Windows xp. I have followed the instructions from Peter E. Rossi in Documentation -> Other, except for the TeX version (fpTeX), since when I go to the recommended webpage, it is said that fpTeX has been discontinued. I have MikTeX in my computer, and I have followed the recommendations in

Hi I have a package which was built using R 1.9.1 and everything worked fine. I recently upgraded to R 2.0.1 and tried to re-install my package - and I got: Error in library(mypackage) : 'mypackage' is not a valid package -- installed < 2.0.0? So I tried rebuilding it using my new version of R: R CMD BUILD --binary mypackage hhc: not found cp: cannot stat `mypackage.chm': No

With rw2010dev I get a strange protect(): protection stack overflow error with a small data frame which otherwise is usable: If anybody wants to have a look I can provide an RData file with the problematic data frame. Doesn't seem to be necessary, the following simulated example generates the error: > testmat <- matrix(1:80, 20,4) > dim(testmat) [1] 20 4 > str(testmat) int

I am using R-1.9.1 with windows 2000 and trying to build a package.

Hi, I am trying to build a package from source for the first time. I'm using Windows XP. After R CMD INSTALL or R CMD check I get an error message that I don't understand. I've tried to follow the instrucions provided in the R Installation and Administration .pdf and the text file that comes with Rtools, but most of this is new to me and clearly I'm missing something. Here's

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-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

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

I have Windows XP build scripts that look for R in a variety of folders and if multiple ones are found, takes the last one. For example, I currently have the following in \Program Files\R : rw1060 rw1062 rw1071 rw1071beta rw1081 rw1090 rw1090dev rw1091 rw1091pat rw2000 rw2001beta Note that it currently correctly gets rw2001beta but if I add rw2001 then it will not pick it up since

Hi all I am not sure this question is better suitted for the R-devel or R-help, but here it goes anyway I am not a software developer but I have produced a personal set of functions that I would like now to combine in a package. I am finding this really hard to do only by following the manuals provided (the language is for software developers I guess which I am far to be). Even so I could
