Are you aware that the default R for Windows installation from CRAN has ICU support? > I am following > https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-admin.html#Building-from-source These instructions are unfortunately outdated. The scripts and instructions used to build the current version of R for Windows can be found here: https://github.com/rwinlib/base#readme > I have downloaded and extracted > https://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/Rtools/goodies/ICU_531.zip That build of ICU was for the previous toolchain (up to R 3.2.5). You need to use the ICU build which is included with Rtools (if you checked the icu checkbox during the Rtools installation). The scripts mentioned above will do this automatically. ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
