Pre-compiled binary packages for R-1.9.x for Windows ==================================================== *********************************************************** This collection is for rw1090/1 only. It is no longer being updated: please update to rw2001. Last update: 15.12.2004. *********************************************************** This collection is unsupported. Please compile from sources yourself in case of any problems. Please ask the package maintainer in case of any questions. Building binary versions of the contributed packages on CRAN has been automated. Binary packages will be available on CRAN about 1-3 days after the sources have been published. Please do *not* submit binary versions of any packages, because that needs manual intervention by this collection's maintainer (hence it is time consuming). Some packages have been working in a former version, but do no longer compile on Windows or do not pass "R CMD check". The last `working' versions are still available. Packages that do not compile out of the box or do not pass "R CMD check" with "OK" or at least a "WARNING" will *not* be published. The results of "R CMD check" are given in CRAN/bin/windows/contrib/checkSummaryWin.html In case of a "WARNING" or an "ERROR", please check the corresponding check.log files in subdirectory ./check. Possible reasons for not-compiling or not-passing the checks: - I do not have some other software the package depends on - The package needs manual configuration - Any other reason I do not want to discover The packages fork, gmp, gtkDevice, hdf5, ncdf, RArcInfo, RCurl, RNetCDF, rpvm, RQuantLib, RScaLAPACK, rsprng, snowFT, taskPR, and udunits require additional libraries / software to build on Windows I do not have installed. For compiling RQuantLib yourself, you might want to check out Dirk Eddelbuettel's page: http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/code/rquantlib.html Although the packages RMySQL, ROracle, and snow pass make check, it seems to be dangerous to distribute them: I do not have the software available these packages depend on. RMySQL is available at http://stat.bell-labs.com/RS-DBI/download, provided by its maintainer, David A. James. The packages RNetCDF, SJava, XML, hdf5, ncdf, rgdal, udunits and xgobi do not build out of the box. Nevertheless these are available at http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin kindly provided by Professor Brian D. Ripley. Uwe Ligges Uwe.Ligges@R-project.org
