Hi all, First of all, I found R.exp. Thanks. The following is a paragraph I copied from Venables and Ripley’s book “S programming” on Page242. If the code calls entry points in the R engine, create an import library from the file R.exp in the source-package distribution by lib /def: R.exp /machine: ix386 /out: Rdll.lib and add Rdll.lib to the link command or add it to the libraries to be used in the IDE. My problems are: 1. Why do we need an import library? (a very basic question) 2. What is R.exp? 3. After I copied the R.exp to C:\ and run “lib /def: R.exp /machine: ix386 /out: Rdll.lib”, the error message showed “Cannot open Rdll.lib” 4. I am not clear about “add Rdll.lib to the link command or add it to the libraries to be used in the IDE”.
