[R-pkg-devel] windows i386
Dear Simon, The repo is at https://gitlab.com/roigrp/solver/highs . Thank you. If I tried the Makevars approach but this leads to other issues with the 32-bit version. I resubmittet the the version with the configure file. Cheers, Florian ? Gesendet:?Donnerstag, 15.

The main problem seems to be your build system that doesn't work. Since you didn't post the actual version of the package, I can only see the CRAN version which still don't set any of the necessary flags from R so it won't work (the error is that it can't even use the C compiler). Your package has to work both in 32-bit and 64-bit, so you need to make sure you pass the correct flags for cmake for each architecture - it's really the same concept as discussed earlier. As for multi-arch, if you have configure.win then you may need to use --merge-multiarch such that each architecture is built separately and the merged into one binary. I think an easier approach would be if you simply dropped configure* and just used Makevars to build the dependent library as part of the build process since you are building in a sub-directory, so you don't really need the configure and could build both archs in one R CMD INSTALL run. Cheers, Simon

I don't want to force the build of "i386" by setting Biarch: TRUE, since as far as I see from the source I link to this should not work and I don't want to alter the library I link to as little as possible. Therefore, I want skip the step "loading checks for arch 'i386'". Is this possible? I know locally this can be resolved by adding the option '--no-multiarch', but can a similar effect be accomplished at the CRAN checks? Furthermore, I know I can could this issue by adding R >= 4.2 to the depends since Rtools 4.2 does not build for i386. But this does not seem like a nice fix. Is there a better option and how would it work? Best regards, Florian
