..many thanks, no it works until he didn't find hhc.exe (..but the path to
HTMLHelpWorkshop should be correct !?)
and break down, ok i just check all path settings and find a solution for my
self !

But here another problem:
...modify without the MkRules in my current binary R.1.6.1\src\gnuwin32

C:\DataMining\rw1061\library>Rcmd INSTALL Oop

make: Entering directory `/cygdrive/c/dataMining/rw1061/src/gnuwin32'
make DLLNM= FLIBS="-lg2c -lRblas" \
  -C C:/DataMining/rw1061/library/Oop PKG=Oop RHOME=c:/dataMining/rw1061
RLIB=C:/dataMining/rw1061/library RVER=1.6.1 \
  -f c:/dataMining/rw1061/src/gnuwin32/MakePkg
make: Entering an unknown directory
make: *** C:/DataMining/rw1061/library/Oop: No such file or directory.
Stop.
make: Leaving an unknown directory
make: *** [pkg-Oop] Error 2
make: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/c/dataMining/rw1061/src/gnuwin32'
*** Installation of Oop failed ***

Sure a PathProblem - Is it correct to set the cross-compiler.settings
to the MinGW folder ?

THANKS for ADVANCE
& regards,Christian


## =================== cross-compiler settings  =================

ifeq ($(strip $(BUILD)),CROSS)
# Next two might be i386-mingw32msvc- or i586- depending on the
cross-compiler.
BINPREF=mingw32-
# Set this to where the mingw32 include files are. It must be accurate.
HEADER=C:/MinGW/include
endif

Read again: INSTALL says:

Check your path
---------------

You need the following in your path:
.
our toolset
mingw\bin
Perl\bin
the latex bin directory
zip.exe, unzip.exe, hhc.exe

Do not use spaces nor unnecessary quotes in your PATH variable.


so I think you failed to follow one whole chunk of the instructions!
Surely you are not cross-compiling!  If you were, Rcmd would not work.

Uwe Ligges already told you *not* to unpack in ...\rw1061\library, but
that seems to be exactly what you have done, hence the problem.
