Simon, This is great! Thank you for sharing. I think I noticed a bug with the fixpathR script: clang4 complier is hard coded.
https://svn.r-project.org/R-dev-web/trunk/QA/Simon/R-build/fixpathR Instances: find . -name \*.dylib -or -name \*.so| xargs -n 1 install_name_tool -change /usr/local/clang4/lib/$gcclib $R/lib/$gcclib and install_name_tool -change /usr/local/clang4/lib/$gcclib $R/lib/$gcclib $rbin Could this be the reason for the ABI issues we're having with clang7?

We don't want to require users to install compilers just to run R, so we supply copies of those runtime libraries in the lib directory. You can replicate the way CRAN R is built using the CRAN build scripts in https://svn.r-project.org/R-dev-web/trunk/QA/Simon/R-build There is a lot going on and there are many special cases for all the compiler generations we were using over the years, but I think the main part to look at for what you refer to is https://svn.r-project.org/R-dev-web/trunk/QA/Simon/R-build/fixpathR Cheers, Simon > On Jan 9, 2020, at 5:38 PM, Jonathon Love <j...@thon.cc> wrote: > > hi, > > i've successfully built R for macOS, and it all works well, however i'm wanting to achieve compatibility with the prebuilt .tgz CRAN R packages. > > the compatibility issue i've been having is that the R produced lacks the Resources/lib/libc++.1.dylib. the prebuilt CRAN R packages link to this, and can't find it at runtime. > > i'm wondering where this file (and a few other files in Resources/lib) that ship with the official CRAN R binary come from - because i don't think they're from the build process of R. > > it looks like the official binary is subject to a few additional build steps (copying binaries in, etc.)? > > with thanks > > jonathon > > _______________________________________________ > R-SIG-Mac mailing list > R-SIG-Mac@r-project.org > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-mac > _______________________________________________ R-SIG-Mac mailing list R-SIG-Mac@r-project.org https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-mac _______________________________________________ R-SIG-Mac mailing list R-SIG-Mac@r-project.org https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-mac
