Neal Richardson commented on ARROW-8281: ---------------------------------------- Not sure if this is possible, but if it is, you'll find out in [the Bible|https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-exts.html], perhaps around [here|https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-exts.html#Creating-shared-objects]? > [R] Name collision of arrow.dll on Windows > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: ARROW-8281 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-8281 > Project: Apache Arrow > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Packaging, R > Affects Versions: 0.16.0 > Reporter: Uwe Korn > Priority: Major > > Currently we build the R extension for Windows only for CRAN with static > linkage. For conda-forge, we though want to build it with dynamic linkage to > {{arrow-cpp}}. Here we come into the issue that the R packages as well as the > C++ package produces an {{arrow.dll}}. As there is no RPATH equivalent on > Windows, the dynamic loader cannot find the right relatonship of both and > fails to load the library. > From my point of view, the simplest approach here would be to name the R > {{arrow.dll}} differently, e.g. {{rarrow.dll}}. Would this be possible? -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
