Hello r-helpers, I am new to Rtools and would like to build dll's from fortran subroutines for use within R.
I have had no luck compiling the following simple fortran code; c sample subroutine to include for R subroutine multiply(ax,bx,cx) implicit none integer ax,bx,cx cx=ax*bx end >From the directory in which the file is located I used the following command; R CMD SHLIB multiply.f With the following a sample of the error messages, and no dll produced; cygwin warning: MS-DOS style path detected: C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-215~1.1/etc/i386/Makeconf Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /cygdrive/c/PROGRA~1/R/R-215~1.1/etc/i386/Makeconf CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this warning.
