Hi: Here's my revised attempt at explaining my problem. Hopefully it won't get sent out weirdly like it did earlier. ? The link to what I'm trying to follow is http://www.stat.columbia.edu/~gelman/stuff_for_blog/AlanRPackageTutorial.pdf ? I've been going through the tutorial but when I got to page 9 and did R CMD SHLIB Xdemo.cc Xdemo_main.cc -o Xdemo.dll I got the following error: XDemo_res.rc:15:38: warning: missing terminating " character XDemo_res.rc:23:34: warning: missing terminating ' character c:\mark\research\Rtools\MinGW\bin\windres.exe: XDemo_res.rc:16: syntax error Then XDemo_res.rc file that gets created is below. I'm using Windows ans R 2.8.1.? I'd really like to make this work so I can continue my learning experience. It's a very nice example that I could really learn a lot from. Thanks a lot for any help/enlightenment. #=========================================================================== = #include <windows.h> #include "Rversion.h" VS_VERSION_INFO VERSIONINFO FILEVERSION R_FILEVERSION PRODUCTVERSION 3,0,0,0 FILEFLAGSMASK 0x3L FILEOS VOS__WINDOWS32 FILETYPE VFT_APP BEGIN ? ? ?
