<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi all,<br><br>I finally got RcppOctave to work on Windows!<br></div><div>See these threads for details on what it took:<br><a href="http://lists.r-forge.r-project.org/pipermail/rcpp-devel/2013-October/006524.html">http://lists.r-forge.r-project.org/pipermail/rcpp-devel/2013-October/006524.html</a><br>
<a href="http://lists.r-forge.r-project.org/pipermail/rcpp-devel/2013-October/006555.html">http://lists.r-forge.r-project.org/pipermail/rcpp-devel/2013-October/006555.html</a><br><br>I would love to have feedbacks -- and log output :) -- on install/build/check run on other Windows machines. So feel free to try and complain if things go wrong.<br>
<br><div>The source is available from github on branch develop:<br><a href="https://github.com/renozao/RcppOctave/archive/develop.zip">https://github.com/renozao/RcppOctave/archive/develop.zip</a><br><br></div><div>Corresponding built source and binary packages are also available from my CRAN-like repo:<br>
</div><div><a href="http://web.cbio.uct.ac.za/~renaud/CRAN">http://web.cbio.uct.ac.za/~renaud/CRAN</a><br></div><div>e.g.:<br></div><div>install.packages('RcppOctave', repos = c(getOption('repos'), '<a href="http://web.cbio.uct.ac.za/~renaud/CRAN'">http://web.cbio.uct.ac.za/~renaud/CRAN'</a>))<br>
</div><div><br></div><div>Requirements:<br></div> * building: Octave bin/ sub-directory must be in Windows PATH + the usual Rtools stuff. Probably better not to have spaces in R and Rtools paths;<br><div> * installing: never actually tried... but Octave bin/ sub-directory must be in the path, I imagine that Octave library directory (where liboctave, liboctinterp and libcruft live) must also be somehow registered or in Windows PATH.<br>
<div><br>Note that I developed/tested the windows version using the mingw port (<a href="http://wiki.octave.org/Octave_for_Windows#Octave-3.6.4-mingw_.2B_octaveforge_pkgs">http://wiki.octave.org/Octave_for_Windows#Octave-3.6.4-mingw_.2B_octaveforge_pkgs</a>), not sure if this is important, probably it is, maybe someone knows ;)<br>
</div><br></div><div>I will also test on my side, but the more the merrier!<br></div><div><br></div></div><div>Thank you.<br><br></div><div>Bests,<br></div><div>Renaud<br></div><div><br>PS: people interested in keeping up with RcppOctave might consider subscribing the -- currently pristine -- mailing list <a href="http://lists.r-forge.r-project.org/pipermail/rcppoctave-user/">http://lists.r-forge.r-project.org/pipermail/rcppoctave-user/</a><br>
