Hmm -- sorry, this is rather strange and I'm also not well versed in smoking out windows compilation problems. Can you provide more of the installation log so we can see what the error is, exactly? I say it's strange because it seems as if CRAN actually has the compiled version of the latest version of the package for windows there: http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/data.table/index.html In particular: http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/r-release/data.table_1.8.8.zip Perhaps you might try changing the CRAN mirror you are using to see if you can grab it? Or just download from the link above and install the compiled version locally? As for me -- I try to keep my version of data.table tied to SVN and periodically svn up and recompile ... I've had no compilation problems as of late (I just recompiled now to double check), so I'm not sure what's going on on your setup. Sorry that I can't be of much help here, perhaps some other windows users can chime in. -steve -- Steve Lianoglou Computational Biologist Bioinformatics and Computational Biology Genentech _______________________________________________ datatable-help mailing list [email protected] https://lists.r-forge.r-project.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/datatable-help
