Dear listers,
I am trying to install RcppBDT_0.2.1 on my Windows machine using the function
install.packages("./RcppBDT_0.2.1.tar.gz", repos=NULL, type="source").
Since this package is not like most of other packages in that it
requires Rcpp and boost,
I have installed Rcpp and boost first, and executed the
install.packages function.
Then, I got the following error message:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
*** arch - i386
ERROR: compilation failed for package 'RcppBDT'
* removing 'C:/Users/skim13/Documents/R/win-library/2.14/RcppBDT'
Warning in install.packages :

Warning in install.packages :

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
It seems Rcpp is automatically detected by PKG_LIBS set in Makevars
and Makevars.win and the problem looks to be boost.
But I have placed boost under
C:/Users/skim13/Documents/R/win-library/2.14/boost_1_51, the default
library folder and set BOOSTLIB accordingly
(BOOSTLIB=C:/Users/skim13/Documents/R/win-library/2.14/boost_1_51).
Can you please tell me what I have to do to make it work?
I have tried this on my Mac and Linux, and it is successfully
installed on both.
This makes me wonder even more why it cannot be installed on Windows.
I don't know, but you'll get more informative error messages if you install from the command line using R CMD INSTALL RcppBDT_0.2.1.tar.gz Duncan Murdoch
