Re: [R-pkg-devel] Multiple architectures on Windows
I am testing a package on Windows for submission for CRAN but having trouble
getting it to work on i386 and x64 platforms simultaneously.
At install time, the package runs a install.libs.R to generate an RData file.
This file contains compiled code (they are cached Stan models generated from
the rstan package) that is architecture specific.
When I check the package on Windows, it will always fail to load the RData file
on whatever architecture it was not installed with (e.g. if I install with x64,
it will fail to load on i386). This suggests to me that the install step is
not running for both architectures as it should, or that they are being written
to the same place and one is overwriting the other.
Is there a way to configure the package to force it to run install.libs.R to
generate these RData files separately under both architectures? The problem as
far as I can tell is that the `R_ARCH` global variable is always empty in
install.libs.R, so under both i386 and x86 runs, the RData files are being
written to the same place. My destination directory is set using the following
line: `dest <- file.path(R_PACKAGE_DIR, paste0('libs', R_ARCH))`.
Things I have tried to force this behavior:
- Adding `Biarch: true` to the DESCRIPTION file.
- Adding a configure.win file.
Thanks for any help you can offer! I am happy to share the package file itself
if you find that useful.

Re: [R-pkg-devel] Multiple architectures on Windows
Sean,
You could look at the packages Rblpapi and x13binary both of which do
something a little nonstandard, but arch dependent. You can either 'hit it'
in the configure or the make step. I can detail if needed.
x13binary is smaller. It just pulls the Census binary in, for Windows that is
precompiled. Here is its configure.win:
-
#!/bin/sh
cwd=$(pwd)
cd inst
r_script="${R_HOME}/bin${R_ARCH_BIN}/Rscript"
set_internet2=`"${r_script}" -e
"cat(ifelse(compareVersion(paste(R.Version()['major'], R.Version()['minor'],
sep = '.'), '3.2.2') > 0, '', 'setInternet2();'))"`
"${r_script}" -e "${set_internet2}
download.file('https://github.com/x13org/x13prebuilt/raw/master/v1.1.26/windows/x13ashtml.zip',
'x13ashtml.zip', quiet = TRUE, mode = \"wb\")"
unzip -u x13ashtml.zip
cp x13ashtml/x13ashtml.exe bin
rm x13ashtml.zip
rm -R x13ashtml
cd ${cwd}
exit 0
-
Similarly, here is src/Makevars.win for Rblpapi -- it needs a library we
fetch from Bloomberg (in configure.win) but unpack as needed:

Those are X11 error messages. How are your running your test? Anything
unusual like a remote connection suppressing display extension such as RANDR
which are usually available at the workstation itself.
In any case, this may have nothing to do with you package per se but as did
not share code or how you ran the tests it is hard to say more.
Best, Dirk

Re: [R-pkg-devel] Fwd: R-package-devel@R-project.org: RANDR
Thank you Dirk.
When you say test, I think you mean the examples in the documentation.
Which I likely do have wrong, because I'm not sure how to make a data file
available to the example. but that may be a different issue.
I don't know what RANDR is. I am opening several alternate output files:
pdf, rtf txt. Would that impact it? Here is the example call to my
package, if that helps:
\examples{
#- Vignette3 visualization
filePath<-"~/file/path/Installing CAT/Vignette3"
# use for mac
#filePath<-"c:\\file\\path\\Installing CAT\\Vignette3"
# use for PC
fileName<-file.path(filePath,'activity stress c57--stress
copy2-part.txt')
file2Name<-file.path(filePath,'good-6d-2m-part.txt')
CatCall(TimeCol=c(1,2), timeFormat=“\%d/\%m/\%y
\%H:\%M:\%S”,lum=NA, valCols=5, sumCols=c(), Avg=FALSE, export=TRUE,
sizePts=2, binPts=1, Span = 0, Increment=0, k=5, yLab=NA, modulo=1440,
Rverbose=0, RmaxGap=3000, Skip=0, header=TRUE, Smoothing=T,
Actogram=T,AutoCorr=T,CrossCorr=T,Console=F,Graphics="pdf", Darkness1=0,
LagPcnt=1, tz="GMT",
fileName=fileName,file2=list(Name=file2Name,TimeCol=c(1,2),
timeFormat="\%d/\%m/\%y \%H:\%M:\%S", lum=NA, valCols=5,
sumCols=c(),sizePts=2, binPts=1,Darkness=0))
}
Can I tell you anything that would be more helpful?
