Hello list,
(PC Windows 2000, R 1.2.3)

i want to compile C source file for R on windows 2000. I'm working 
with Metrowerks CodeWarrior for creating and compiling C files. I've 
see that R.lib file must be obtain with R.ddl by Visual C++. I don't 
have Visual C++ (and i don't want to buy it !!) but i want to obtain 
R.lib file. Is there a solution to my problem ???

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You only need R.lib if you are using Visual C++.  You need to read your
compiler's manual on how to make an import library for R.dll from the data
in R.exp.

I think all the information needed is in the file readme.packages.
