Hi, I am trying to install a package (PortfolioAnalytics) of R 2.15.2 on Win 7.
I have tried the following instructions on : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11105131/cannot-install-r-forge-package-using-install-packages I used svn checkout svn://svn.r-forge.r-project.org/svnroot/returnanalytics/ to get the package and then copy it to my Win 7. Then, on Win 7 I run: > install.packages('PortfolioAnalytics', type='source', repos='<The location > of the package on Win 7>') I got Warning: unable to access index for repository C:/myPath/library/returnanalytics/pkg/PerformanceAnalytics/src/contrib Warning: package PortfolioAnalytics is not available (for R version 2.15.2) I also tried http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4739837/how-do-i-install-an-r-package-from-the-source-tarball-on-windows http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-admin.html#Windows-packages (6.3.1 Windows) http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-admin.html#The-Windows-toolset (Appendix D The Windows toolset) I have installed RTools216 on Win 7. But, it does not say how to use it to build a R package on Win 7. http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/Rtools216.exe Any help will be appreciated. Thanks [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
