[Rcpp-devel] installation of nlopt on windows from source

[althu07]

Hi fellows,

I try to link nlopt with Rcpp/RcppArmadillo packages in R. So I follow the
instructions on nloptr website (
https://github.com/jyypma/nloptr/blob/master/INSTALL.windows) to first
install nlopt from source on windows. However, I encountered the following
errors in make. Any help is very much appreciated! Thanks!
