I'm working with Rcpp now. I would say use pre-built binaries, including R, whenever possible. I've found the most success by avoiding local builds. Now if I could just get corporate to approve the 64 bit builds for the GSL...
There are pre-built GSL libraries for 64 bit Windows available, if you need them. http://wiki.rglab.org/index.php?title=Public:Installation_of_GSL_from_Wi ndows_binary Thanks, Dale Smith, Ph.D. Senior Financial Quantitative Analyst Risk & Compliance Fiserv. 107 Technology Park Norcross, GA 30092 Office: 678-375-5315 Mail: dale.sm...@fiserv.com www.fiserv.com -----Original Message----- From: rcpp-devel-boun...@r-forge.wu-wien.ac.at [mailto:rcpp-devel-boun...@r-forge.wu-wien.ac.at] On Behalf Of Dirk Eddelbuettel Sent: Tuesday, August 28, 2012 9:40 AM To: Dan Murphy Cc: rcpp-de...@r-forge.wu-wien.ac.at Subject: Re: [Rcpp-devel] RInside missing R.dll On 28 August 2012 at 06:14, Dan Murphy wrote: | Hmm, that's a possibility.

Or maybe it is your R-built-from-source which may make your setup non-standard. I don't develop on Windows myself, but I occassionally built there (eg for local-to-work packages) or test there (eg in a small virtual instance on my Linux server) but most of the time I just toss package candidates at win-builder.r-project.org which works great (but does not help with RInside besides building the package). We had a long standing Windows bug in RInside (which was entirely my oversight) but since that has been fixed, it "just works" and reliably so. And thanks to Peter's CMake files even in different settings / IDEs etc. But Windows is finicky and you must follow the prescribed procedure to the t.
