If all else fails, read the manual: it is explicitly documented that you need a file src/Makefile.win .

And very likely you should rather study the manual to resolve what issue you think 'requires' a Makefile: those who want to use R on other platforms (e.g. Solaris and AIX) are unlikely to thank you for taking that route.

I've written a rather complex package that requires overriding the default 
compilation behavior for the C code component.   In the src dir I have a 
Makefile that is used correctly on OSX and Linux builds of the package, but 
completely ignored on windows.

R CMD INSTALL<package>

on windows runs Makeconf instead of running make on my Makefile.    If run make 
in the src directory manually on windows, the shared library compiles.

How can I get the INSTALL command to look for the Makefile?    I am building on 
R 2.14.0 on a win 7 vm.

Thanks
