f951.exe: sorry, unimplemented: 64-bit mode not compiled

Hello:


       Under my Windows 7 system, "R CMD check 
DiercxkSpline_1.1-5.tar.gz" fails because:


f951.exe: sorry, unimplemented: 64-bit mode not compiled in

make: *** [bispev.o] Error 1
gfortran -m64     -O2  -mtune=core2 -c bispev.f -o bispev.o
f951.exe: sorry, unimplemented: 64-bit mode not compiled in

make: *** [bispev.o] Error 1
ERROR: compilation failed for package 'DierckxSpline'


       A similar problem was reported for package "glmnet" 
(http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10291189/compiling-glmnet-failed-in-windows) 
plus one with R 2.14.2 
(http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Problems-when-building-a-package-for-Windows-64-td4464488.html).  
However, I get this with R 2.15.0 and the latest R tools (reinstalled 
earlier today).  On R-Forge, DierckxSpline has "Build status:  Current", 
which suggests that R-Forge does NOT have this problem.  I read through 
the two replies to these two earlier questions without seeing how to fix 
my problem.


       Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

This typically means that you're using the wrong (old) compiler. The new MinGW compilers support both -m32 and -m64. You have to set the PATH to the new compilers (in the gcc-4.6.3 subdirectory of Rtools) *before* any old compilers in Rtools.

Cheers,

Simon:  That was it:  I had installed several recent versions of Rtools 
without deleting the old ones and without properly updating the path.  I 
deleted what I had, then reinstalled Rtools215.exe (downloaded 
yesterday) while being careful to have the installer help me edit the 
path.  The problem disappeared.  Thanks very much.  Spencer

The original post below refers to an issue that arose with glmnet. It 
has since been fixed but the underlying problem (I believe) is a bug in 
gcc/gfortran 2.6.3 toolchain.  Here is a reproducible example, test.f90.

program dblbug
   real :: x, y
   x=2
   y=exp(dble(x))
end program dblbug

Compile with gfortran -fdefault-real-8 -o test test.f90.

The program will crash on Windows but not on i386 or x86_64 linux (same 
version of toolchain) but I think that says nothing.

Note: The glmnet code was originally written for single precision and 
hence the flag -fdefault-real-8. The fix was to just to remove the "dble."
