[Rcpp-devel] Mac problem (possibly not Rcpp's fault)

Le 05/04/11 18:58, Jay Emerson a ?crit :

I'm making a guess that the R-Forge setup is having the same problems
as we are, though -- more than just RcppModels show that same bus
error.  Executive summary: I now have a local success, with his
information given below, as well as information on one of the
failures; it does indeed appear to be a compiler version issue, as
Romain suspected.  I'll badger the students again to make sure they
are up to date.

Thanks!

The success setup:

My other student (who couldn't succeed) has an older version it
appears.  She seems to think she installed the newest version of
everything, up apparently not.

This is it I guess. IIRC R is only currently supported for versions greater than leopard (10.5).

(adding simon to the cc, he probably knows better than my vague memory)

Hm, it so happens that Romain committed something today (r2950) which seems
to be around the same or similar spot -- I have not been hit by anything like
it.  OS X uses g++ 4.2.1 which is starting to pose challenges as we are being
pushed at the same time to use g++ 4.5 and even 4.6 (now in Debian unstable
and already used by Kurt on CRAN tests).

We sort-of have 0.9.3 pre-releases; we are being hang-up by a modules issue
right now we are debugging. Rcpp 0.9.3 may help you -- can you and your
students try the version from my site at

  http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/code/rcpp/Rcpp_0.9.3.tar.gz

I just put a new tarball there that corresponds to r2956 which is very
current.  Passes R CMD check here... but it not 'officially released' so it
bites your cat and sets your car on fire none of that is our business :)

Romain may have more pertinent help for the OS X issues.
