Hi Dirk,
Thanks for the response - it was helpful.
I've added the library you suggested and the appropriate path, and now
linking is fine. For completeness, my makevars.win now looks like this:
## Use the R_HOME indirection to support installations of multiple R version
## PKG_LIBS = $(shell "${R_HOME}/bin${R_ARCH_BIN}/Rscript.exe" -e
"Rcpp:::LdFlags()")
PKG_LIBS = $("C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-2.13.1/library/Rcpp/lib/i386/libR.cpp.a")
PKG_LIBS+= -lRcpp
PKG_LIBS+= -LC:/PROGRA~1/R/R-213~1.1/library/Rcpp/libs/i386
Guess the approach can be prettified using the $(shell....) approach above
and regular expressions, but I'm no expert on this.
Thanks again!
BR,
Bjørn
