Dear all, I have used devtools with success and pleasure to build packages in the past, but everything has changed recently. No success using build(binary = T) in Windows 7 (with rtools34 and R-3.4.2). MANY hours searching for solutions. Can someone help me?
In particular, I use devtools::build(binary = T) to build a package (called CPparms) and devtools::install(). Then ls('package:CPparms') returns character(0), indicating that there is nothing in my package. Is it mis-communication between R and Rtools? build(binary = T) tells me it is "installing *source* package" but shouldn't it be building a binary package first? Sys.getenv('PATH') gives the following items that are related to R and Rtools: c:\Rtools\bin;c:\Rtools\mingw_32\bin;...c:\Rtools\bin;c:\Rtools\gcc-4.6.3\bin;c:\Program Files\R\R-3.4.2\bin\x64;...c:\Rtools\bin;c:\Rtools\gcc-4.6.3\bin;c:\Progra~1\R\R-3.0.2\bin\x64; The first two items seem to be OK, but I don't not see c:\Rtools\gcc-4.6.3\bin in my Window Explorer. Also, the path names for my R-3.4.2 and R-3.0.2 are formatted differently. R seems to know how to find Rtools: > system('g++ -v') Using built-in specs.
