Solver for a generic optimal portfolio
solve.QP probably assumes the standard markowitz style mean-variance framework where the objective function is quadratic. So, if you want some other objective function, you'd have to describe it exactly in order for others to figure out whether the objective function is still quadratic.

I'd like to estimate weights of an optimal portfolio other than min
variance portfolio by replacing covariance matrix with something else. Is
there an R package that can do this (my understanding is that solve.QP is
not helpful for this task).
Thanks! Alec
