[Rcpp-devel] Difficulty Compiling RcppClassic Package on Windows

[Tim Jurka]

Hello Rcpp-Devel,

This is my first question posted to this list, so please remind me if I'm missing crucial details in my inquiry!

I have successfully interfaced Yoshimasa Tsuruoka's excellent C++ maximum entropy library ( http://www-tsujii.is.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp/~tsuruoka/maxent/ ) using RcppClassic, and everything compiles cleanly on *NIX and OS X when compiled from source (via the same method described below). However, when I try to install from my repository on a Windows 7 machine (using R 2.12.1 64-bit), it starts throwing a lot of errors. I have RTools installed, with both the 32-bit and 64-bit options selected, and a blank Rcpp package skeleton compiles fine on my machine. Could anyone point me in the right direction as to what's going differently on Windows vs my *NIX machines?

Thank you in advance for any help!
Tim

The commands I run in R look like:
repositories <- c("http://install.rtexttools.com/","http://cran.r-project.org","http://www.omegahat.org/R")
install.packages("maxent", repos=repositories, type="source")

My Makevars.win file looks like:
PKG_LIBS = $(shell "${R_HOME}/bin${R_ARCH_BIN}/Rscript.exe" -e "Rcpp:::LdFlags()")
PKG_LIBS += $(shell "${R_HOME}/bin${R_ARCH_BIN}/Rscript.exe" -e "RcppClassic:::LdFlags()")

These headers are included in all files with Rcpp code:
#include <RcppClassic.h>
#include <R.h>
#include <Rmath.h>

And the error output looks like (for both 32-bit and 64-bit builds, error output is identical for both g++ and x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++):
