I don't have bandwidth right now to test any of this. As you say VC++ is not supported by CRAN anyway.<br>
<br>
Have you tried building client packages with VC++, as this is more likely to start getting problematic at that stage. Due to templates lazyness, most of the code of Rcpp is not actually compiled in Rcpp, but if/when needed by the client code.<br>
</blockquote><div><br>I tested with several clients (that use both Rcpp and cxxPack) and it works fine, but I have<br>not run all of the unit tests. The VC++ IDE is only used to build the DLL's (and check that<br>everything can be compiled). These DLL's can simply be copied over the ones created<br>
by MinGW, and R will handle them without problems. This required some DLL special<br>processing, and the fact that it works is surprising given the comments in<br><a href="http://www.mingw.org/wiki/MixingCompilers">http://www.mingw.org/wiki/MixingCompilers</a>.<br>
<br>I did not test the possibility of running R inside the IDE as this would require building R inside<br>the IDE, which I have not tried to do.<br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
