[Rcpp-devel] RInside and MinGW (Windows)

[Jose]

Hi Dirk,

Thanks for your email.

I forgot to mention that I am using Rtool's MinGW and the PATH variable
includes C:\Rtools\bin and C:\Rtools\mingw_32\bin.
Also, I had to copy some dlls from the original MinGW (which is the one
that I had before)
in order to be able to compile with the Rtool's MinGW. The original MinGW
is not
included in the PATH variable. I am not sure if both MinGWs are the same
version
or how to check that if that actually matters.

Best,
Jose
