Dear Murdoch,

After setting CYGWIN=nodosfilewarning, i re-ran the R CMD check and got
following message:

* installing *source* package 'mypackage' ...
** libs
ERROR: compilation failed for package 'mypackage'
* removing 'C:/Rpackages/mypackage.Rcheck/mypackage'

The log file contained following.
* using log directory 'C:/Rpackages/mypackage.Rcheck'
* using R version 2.13.0 (2011-04-13)
* using platform: i386-pc-mingw32 (32-bit)
* using session charset: ISO8859-1
* checking for file 'mypackage/DESCRIPTION' ... OK
* this is package 'mypackage' version '1.1'
* checking package name space information ... OK
* checking package dependencies ... OK
* checking if this is a source package ... OK
* checking for executable files ... OK
* checking whether package 'mypackage' can be installed ... ERROR
Installation failed.
See 'C:/Rpackages/mypackage.Rcheck/00install.out' for details.

The src directory contains nothing since all my codes are in R and are in
the R directory. I have checked that the code works fine in R console. My
DESCRIPTION file is like this:
Package: mypackage
Version: 1.1
Date: 2011-07-14
Title: abcd
Author: B N Mandal <mandal.s...@gmail.com>
Maintainer: B N Mandal <mandal.s...@gmail.com>
Depends: R(>= 2.13.0)
Description: xyz
License: GPL (>=2)

and NAMESPACE file contains
export(fun1)

I have checked Rd files are fine.

Can you suggest what may be wrong now?

regards,
BN Mandal
