Thanks Prof. Brain,

Following your suggestion I found the reason of my problem in the document
''R Installation and Administration' and the links it points to'.

After I updated to R2.6.2, the RTools's default compiler chaged to gcc4 while I was using 3.4.x. The error disappeared after I installed gcc4 and
the default settings from RTools works well now.

Have a nice day!

Using 'mingw32-make' indicates that you have not followed the instructions accurately. You *must* have the Rtools/bin directory ahead of all other
tools in your PATH.

Please check again (and again) that you have followed the prescription in
'R Installation and Administration'.

I got errors when I tried to compile my code into dll on XP box.

"C:/R/R-2.6.2/src/gnuwin32/MkRules:235: warning: overriding commands for

mingw32-make: *** No rule to make target `''.o', needed by `'''. Stop."

So I decide to try the example in "writing R extensions" c++ code example x.hh,x.cc and xmain.cc, I compiled with "r cmd shlib x.cc xmain.cc" and
got
the same error output:
"mingw32-make: *** No rule to make target `x.cc''.  Stop."

I was able to compile dll before, since then I have updated R, installed other softwares, so I am a bit confusing at this moment what would be the cause of this problem. Could some please give some suggestions? Thanks
in
advance.

Sun
