Hi,
i would like to create a minimal build of the R engine to package together with
a Java application. So far i have succeeded in doing this by compiling the R
sources
using the following args to configure:
../configure --prefix=/Users/marc/Desktop/standaloneR --enable-static=yes
--enable-threads=posix --with-aqua=no --with-tcltk=no --enable-R-framework=no
Are you guessing here? The first two do nothing in R.
Unfortunately the R created using the above configuration does not
include support for the quartz() graphics device (which i would like to
have because of the antialiasing capabilities and also because quartz
should be available on any mac system - in constrast to X11 that might
not be available on Tiger systems)
Hmm, X11 does have 'antialiasing capabilities' by default in R 2.7.x.
The availability of quartz() is controlled by HAVE_AQUA, so you need
--with-aqua .
A second and third question that i have (maybe only because i do not
have a lot of experience with compiling from the command line - sorry)
is: How do i tell the system to generate universal binaries?
Follow the FAQ, e.g.
http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/RMacOSX-FAQ.html#How-to-build-universal-R
The build also dynamically links to libpng and lipjpeg which causes
problems when the final app is started on different machines with
different versions of these libraries (or even wothout them). So evade
this problem i would like to link them statically - but i did not figure
out how...
How about (from configure --help)
--with-libpng use libpng library (if available) [yes]
--with-jpeglib use jpeglib library (if available) [yes]
Switching these off should do what you want.
If this is all off-topic or in any other way not suitable to ask in this
list i apologize and would like to know where there would be a better
place to ask.
Most of it is in the FAQ.
Thanks in advance,
Marc
