You need to install those tools. If you've done that, but decided not to use the Help Compiler (hhc), then you need to modify the MkRules file in RHOME/src/gnuwin32 to tell it not to try to build that kind of help.

答复: [R] fail in adding library in new version.
Dear All, I imitated the web age Description example to make my description. I wrote: Package: example Version: 1.0 Date: 2005-07-08 Title: example library Author: Ivy [EMAIL PROTECTED] Maintainer: Ivy [EMAIL PROTECTED] Description: simple function License: GPL Version 2 or later. Packaged: Fri July 8 13:00:00 2005; Ivy And In Dos environment, I install example library. There are some error: -- Making package example adding build stamp to DESCRIPTION no R files in this package no man files in this package installing indices installing help wc: D:/PROGRA~1/R/rw2011/library/example/R/example: No such file or directory adding MD5 sums * DONE (example) Then the DESCRIPTION, MD5 and Meta folder are created in the path of D:\Program Files\R\rw2011\library\example So please tell me which step was wrong?

To get more info on the DESCRIPTION file see 1.1.1 of the Writing Extensions manual which you can get to from the Help | Manuals menu entry in the Windows R GUI. There is also an example in that section. Also \Program Files\R\rw2011\library contains one directory per package and you can look at the DESCRIPTION files in each for additional examples (although these are built files and you don't need the Packaged and Built lines since those were added automatically).

Even better, cd to MyRpackages, add R's bin dir to your path variable, and simply say: R CMD INSTALL example Another possibility is to put Rcmd.bat from the batch file collection http://cran.r-project.org/contrib/extra/batchfiles/ in your path. It will use the registry to find R so you won't have to modify your path (nor would you have to remodify it every time you install a new version of R which is what you would otherwise have to do): cd \MyPackages Rcmd install example Just for the records: 1. cd \MyPackages won't

Then I setup it in the path of D:\program files\R\ 1. unpack tools.zip into c:\cygwin 2. install Active perl in c:\Perl 3. install the mingw32 in c:\mingwin 4. add c:\cygwin; c:\mingwin\bin in Control Panel - System - Advanced - No, without the blank(!!!): c:\cygwin;c:\mingwin\bin Environment Variables - Path - Variable (In your previous mail, you said put these at the beginning of the path, I don't understand what is your meaning. Which path?) Well, the PATH variable already contains a couple of paths, add the two given above in front of all others, separated by ;. Don't see what is difficult to understand here. 5. I tried an library example. I set a new folder named example in the c:\MyRpackages\. And In the example folder, it contain an DESCRIPTION file and R folder. in R folder contain a example file. I just write very simple script in it: a-2; b-3;sum - sum(a,b); print(paste(a,+,b,=,sum)) 6. I opened the DOS environment. Into the D:\ Type the following code: cd \Program Files\R\rw2010 But I don't understand the second line you writed in your previous mail: bin\R cmd install /MyRPackages/example Then you should read the R Installation and Administration manual, you missed it, obviously! I am not sure that I set up R in D:\ But I do so much action in C:\ Did I do the correct action? Did I do the action into the correct path? I still need your and others help. Thank you very much! I think you need to read the manuals before, and additionally seek advice by a local Windows expert who can tell you relationships between paths, environment variables, executable files etc. Uwe Ligges -原始邮件- 发件人: Gabor Grothendieck [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] 发送时间: 2005年6月6日 10:21 收件人: Ivy_Li 抄 送: r-help@stat.math.ethz.ch 主题: Re: [R] fail in adding library in new version. On 6/5/05, Ivy_Li [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello everybody, Could I consult you a question? I always use R old version 1.9.1 . Because I can not add my library into the new version 2.0.0 by the same method as old version. Getting the latest version of R is strongly recommended. The suggestions below all assume the latest version and may or may not work if you do not upgrade. * I have read the webpage http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/Rtools * Download the tools.zip * Unpack tools.zip into c:\cygwin * Install Active Perl in c:\Perl * Install the mingw32 port of gcc in c:\mingwin * Then go to Control Panel - System - Advanced - Environment Variables - Path - Variable Balue add ;c:\cygwin;c:\mingwin\bin You may need to put these at the beginning of the path rather than the end. Also just as a check enter path at the console to make sure that you have them. You will likely have to start a new console session and possibly even reboot. Also you need the Microsoft Help Compiler, hhc. Suggest you reread the material on which tools you need. * Save my library example into c:\MyRpackages\ . But I am not sure what type it is, is it need suffix? And I don't what its content, just my function script, no special format? In MyRPackages you would have a folder called example, in your case, that contains the package. Within folder example, you would have the DESCRIPTION file, the R folder, etc. * Then I don't know where should I do this step: Type R CMD INSTALL --build example. Need I run R first? You don't have to run R first. You do need to make sure that R.exe can be found on your path or else use the absolute path name in referring to R. For example, if your path does not include R you could do something like this: cd \Program Files\R\rw2010 bin\R cmd install /MyRPackages/example Be sure to use forward slashes where shown above and backslashes where shown. So There is a error after I do this step. It said it can not find somethig. I don't which step is wrong. It costed me much time. Try all these suggestions including upgrading R and if that does not work try posting screen dumps of the actual errors you are getting. __ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html __ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
