Dear listers,
Compilation of my gower pkg fails on R-oldrel-windows. I am pretty sure that this is because it uses gcc 4.6.3 which has limited support for OpenMP (the errors are the same as I got on the old travis-ci build environment, see my related question[1]). Now, according to the Rtools page[2], since R3.2.2 "Both the gcc 4.6.3 toolchain and a toolchain based on gcc 4.9.3 and mingw-w64 v3 are now included." Not sure what that says about CRAN, but I'm hoping/guessing it uses Rtools the same way as we do. So I guess I have the following options: - make my package depend on R>=3.3 - Alter my code (as kindly suggested by Ott Toomet in [1]) - Tell CRAN to use the modern compiler. Obviously, the latter would be easiest. Is this is even possible? For a local installation I could set an environment variable[3], but how about doing this at CRAN?
