Greetings, I have a computer with the following setup: 1)cblfs (pure 64-bit (amd64) linux), kernel2.6.34 gcc4.4.2 2)R-2.11.1
I compiled R with BLAS and lapack using the switched ( --with-blas="- lpthread -latlas -lfptf77blas" --with-lapack="-llapack -lcblas" ). (( http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-admin.html#Linear-algebra) ) Prior to compiling R-2.11.1 sh conigure --help gave options including the following SHLIB_LD command for linking shared libraries which contain object files from a C or Fortran compiler only SHLIB_LDFLAGS special flags used by SHLIB_LD SHLIB_CXXLDFLAGS special flags used by SHLIB_CXXLD SHLIB_FCD command for linking shared libraries which contain object files from the Fortran 95 compiler SHLIB_FCLDFLAGS special flags used by SHLIB_FCLD I did not know what to set for these and accepted whatever the defaults were. I ended up with shared-libraries which are as follows:- $R_HOME/lib/{libRblas.so,libRlapack.so } i.e. with the prefix 'lib' and the following shared-libraries without the 'lib' prefix. $R_HOME/modules/{R_X11.so,internet.so,lapack.so,vfonts.so } $R_HOME/library/cluster/libs/cluster.so $R_HOME/library/foreign/libs/foreign.so $R_HOME/library/grDevices/libs/grDevices.so $R_HOME/library/grid/libs/grid.so $R_HOME/library/KernSmooth/libs/KernSmooth.so $R_HOME/library/lattice/libs/lattice.so $R_HOME/library/MASS/libs/MASS.so $R_HOME/library/Matrix/libs/Matrix.so $R_HOME/library/methods/libs/methods.so $R_HOME/library/mgcv/libs/mgcv.so $R_HOME/library/nlme/libs/nlme.so $R_HOME/library/nnet/libs/nnet.so $R_HOME/library/rpart/libs/rpart.so $R_HOME/library/spatial/libs/spatial.so $R_HOME/library/splines/libs/splines.so $R_HOME/library/stats/libs/stats.so $R_HOME/library/survival/libs/survival.so $R_HOME/library/tools/libs/tools.so In linux builds the linker usually looks for libs with the 'lib' prefix. In this installation all the libraries ---in $R_HOME/modules ---in $R_HOME/library/patha/to/whatevr do not have the 'lib' prefix. QUESTION: A) does any on list know SHLIB_LD SHLIB_LDFLAGS SHLIB_CXXLDFLAGS SHLIB_FCD SHLIB_FCLDFLAGS settings for compiling R and do these result in so libs with the 'lib' prefix? B) If all of A) is negative what is there to be done to to enable generation libraries in $R_HOME/modules $R_HOME/library/~ with the 'lib' prefix? suggestions welcomed. luxInteg ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
