Hello,
I have written my own very simple package. On an Apple, I was able to
run through the "R CMD build" and "R CMD check" successfully. I have
also installed the package, and successfully loaded the library on my
Apple.
This package is written entirely in R and requires no compilation.
I am trying to move the package to a Windows machine.
I (perhaps naively) thought, given that it contains no code requiring
compilation, that I should just be able to take the .tar.gz file and
directly install it in Windows. This didn't work. Nor did
"translating' the contents of the .tar.gz file into a .zip file.
I was about to provide the errors, but more googling on this issue
suggests that maybe what I'm trying to do is impossible.
Do I really have to "build" on a Windows box ... even when the package
requires no compilation? Is there no simple translation tool available
for this case?
You need to INSTALL a source package (that has been build) as on any
other platform. How to colect the tools in order to make R CMD INSTALL
work under Windows (and other OSs) is described in the R Installation
and Administration manual.
Best,
