Hi
I don't know how to complie R-2.13.1 with MKL in windows 7 64bit.
I can compile normal R in windows using Rtools under R-admin.html description.
but, this way doesn't use ./configure file.(use MkRules.local file as
setting.).
In 'R-admin.html' description, use ./configure --with-blas="$MKL" in
which case with MKL compile.
But, There is no description when I use MkRules.local setting file.
So, I don't understand what I could describe in MkRules.local file in
case of compile R-2.13.1 with MKL in windows.
Does anyone know how to complie R with MKL in windows?
The Windows make files assume you're using MinGW. If you're not using that
compiler, you're on your own.
I think the questions was about MKL BLAS with MinGW.
WADA, see Windows FAQ 8.2 - in general, you don't need to compile R
against a particular BLAS - you just use shared BLAS and put your
favorite BLAS implementation (like MKL) instead of Rblas.dll. The
instructions you quote are not for you - they are for unix. I did
not use MKL on Windows myself (my tests on OSX indicated that it's
slower than ATALS and thus not worth the hassle), so you'll have to
try it for yourself.
Yes, I think that was the question, and I have used MKL. But its use
on Windows is a pain (it took my staff man-days to get the license
manager to work), and I would suggest using the Goto BLAS instead:
instructions are in the current R documentation (the rw-FAQ AFAIR).
Cheers,
Simon
