[R] compiling r from source on Windows 7 (64 bit)

2011-08-13 Thread Erin Hodgess
Dear R People:

Hope you're having a nice Saturday.

I'm trying to compile R-2.13.1 from source on Windows 7 (64 bit).
I've been able to compile on a 32 bit without any problems.

I changed my BINPREF64, WIN, DEFS_W64 in MkRules.local and did the
usual stuff with the jpeg, etc.

But things are jogging along and I get the following:

Makefile.win:28: ../../../../etc/x64/Makeconf: No such file or directory

Has anyone run across this, please?

Should I possibly just switch back to 32 bit, do you think, please?

I need to compile from source because I'm building packages.

Thanks for any help.

Sincerely,
Erin

Erin,

You can build packages without compiling from source (what made you
think you couldn't?).  Did you make sure when you installed the Rtools
(I am assuming you are using those rather than going out and getting
everything you need on your own) that you included everything for 64
bit builds?  When switching between 32  64, I typically only switch
between WIN = 32 and WIN = 64.

[R] [R\ Compiling R from source on Windows 7 (64 bit) solved

2011-08-13 Thread Erin Hodgess
Hello again.

Due to the excellent help from Josh Wiley,  I ran back in the C:/R
directory with only changing WIN = 64 in the MkRules.local file (other
than the JPEG, etc).  All was well.

Thanks,
Erin
