Uwe Korn created ARROW-8281: ------------------------------- Summary: [R] Name collision of arrow.dll on Windows Key: ARROW-8281 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-8281 Project: Apache Arrow Issue Type: Improvement Components: Packaging, R Affects Versions: 0.16.0 Reporter: Uwe Korn
Currently we build the R extension for Windows only for CRAN with static linkage. For conda-forge, we though want to build it with dynamic linkage to {{arrow-cpp}}. Here we come into the issue that the R packages as well as the C++ package produces an {{arrow.dll}}. As there is no RPATH equivalent on Windows, the dynamic loader cannot find the right relatonship of both and fails to load the library. >From my point of view, the simplest approach here would be to name the R >{{arrow.dll}} differently, e.g. {{rarrow.dll}}. Would this be possible? -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
