[Rcpp-devel] [rinside] compiling e QT + RInside on win7 have some problems

[John Buonagurio]

I did this a couple years ago, so you may need to make some changes with the latest toolset, but the process was straightforward. Here are my general suggestions:

 - Use the Qt 4.8.6 binary distribution built with MinGW GCC 4.8.2: http://download.qt.io/archive/qt/4.8/4.8.6/qt-opensource-windows-x86-mingw482-4.8.6-1.exe.mirrorlist
 - Set your path to include the Rtools binaries and R, but not Rtools GCC-4.6.3, e.g. C:\Rtools\bin;C:\MinGW\bin;C:\R\R-3.2.1\bin
 - Build Rcpp and RInside from source using GCC 4.8.2. You may need to use R i386 and prevent x64 compilation, e.g.

   install.packages("C:/Rcpp_0.11.6.tar.gz", repos=NULL, type="source", INSTALL_opts=c("--no-multiarch"))
   install.packages("C:/RInside_0.2.13.tar.gz", repos=NULL, type="source", INSTALL_opts=c("--no-multiarch"))

 - Test with Dirk's qtdensity example. It worked for me with no changes using the included .pro file with qmake && make.

Looks like you're close. Try the above and if you still have issues I'll give it a shot myself tomorrow.
