[Rcpp-devel] RcppArmadillo and the version of Rcpp

[Greg Distiller]

Hi

I hope its not inappropriate for me to post this as a follow up to my problems with getting RcppArmadillo to work. I tried to compile from source using R CMD INSTALL as Dirk suggested but am getting the error message below. I don't know if this particular problem is related to a small issue I had getting Rcpp to work from within RStudio: for some reason RStudio was not seeing the correct system environment path and so could not find the compiler. I managed to resolve this by explicitly setting the path when I start RStudio using Sys.setenv(). The error I get when trying to install RcppArmadillo is as follows (specifically see the errors at the bottom):



C:\Program Files\R\R-2.15.1\library>R CMD INSTALL RcppArmadillo*tar.gz

* installing to library 'C:/Program Files/R/R-2.15.1/library'

* installing *source* package 'RcppArmadillo' ...

** package 'RcppArmadillo' successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked

** libs



*** arch - i386

cygwin warning:

  MS-DOS style path detected: C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-215~1.1/etc/i386/Makeconf

  Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /cygdrive/c/PROGRA~1/R/R-215~1.1/etc/i386/Makec

onf

  CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this warning.

  Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths:

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks
