I'm running R2.6.2 on a DELL box with 2gig RAM, using Rtools (v26). I have a perplexing problem trying to build a package.
I've created a small demonstration: problem.demo <- function () {cat("\n *** \u00e2 vs a ***\n")} This function runs in an R gui session and Rtools makes a simple package containing it alone or with a handful of similar routines. However, when I include it with a much bigger package (that Rtools has no trouble in packaging without it), the result is an invalid \uxxxx sequence: Compile time: 0 minutes, 3 seconds 171 Topics 342 Local links 171 Internet links 1 Graphic Created c:\DOCUME~1\CHARLE~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\Rbuild406495938\mh1823\chm\mh1823.chm, 149,803 bytes Compression decreased file by 398,668 bytes. preparing package mh1823 for lazy loading Loading required package: rcom Loading required package: RODBC Loading required package: RColorBrewer Loading required package: survival Loading required package: splines Error in parse(n = -1, file = file) : invalid \uxxxx sequence Calls: <Anonymous> -> code2LazyLoadDB -> sys.source -> parse Execution halted make: *** [lazyload] Error 1 *** Installation of mh1823 failed *** Removing 'C:/DOCUME~1/CHARLE~1/LOCALS~1/Temp/Rinst406445831/mh1823' Clearly I am overlooking something obvious, so I would greatly appreciate any guidance.
