question about Makeconf and nvcc/CUDA

Dear R development:



I'm not sure if this is the appropriate list, but it's a start.



I would like to put together a package which contains a CUDA program on Windows 7.  I believe that it has to do with the Makeconf file in the etc directory.

But when I just use the nvcc with the shared option, I can use the dyn.load command, but when I use the is.loaded function, it shows FALSE.







Here are the results of the check command:



c:\PROGRA~1\R\R-3.0.1\bin\i386>R CMD check cudasize
R CMD check cudasize
* using log directory 'c:/PROGRA~1/R/R-3.0.1/bin/i386/cudasize.Rcheck'

* checking whether package 'cudasize' can be installed ... ERROR
Installation failed.
See 'c:/PROGRA~1/R/R-3.0.1/bin/i386/cudasize.Rcheck/00install.out' for details.

And the 00install.out file:

* installing *source* package 'cudasize' ...

I've been experimenting with the Makeconf file, but to no avail.



Does anyone have any suggestions, please?



Thanks,

Erin
