RDCOMServer for R 2.0.1 + Windows ?
This is about an Omegahat package. Especially for packages not on CRAN, please ask the maintainer in the first instance. There were Omegahat mailing lists: I do not know if they are currently operational but this does indicate that R-help is not the appropriate place to ask. Your questions are about Windows, not R, and the posting guide would point you to R-devel not R-help if either.

Has anyone managed to get this working?
Here's what I did:
I got the binary build for R2.0.1 from the Omegahat
download page, and made a small change to
the registerClassID function ( to make it use
the right path to RDCOMServer.dll).
Then I tried to replicate the simple TTest example
from the same web site. The COM class definition
and registration worked fine for me.
To test this, I tried to create the COM object using
COMCreate ( from the RDCOMClient package ):
COMCreate('R.TTest') -- this causes an error saying
"Error in the DLL".
In other words it is able to get the DLL path
correctly via the Win registry, but is then having
a problem with the DLL.
If anyone has a working Windows build for R2.0.1,
please let me know.
