Subject: [Rd] Problem creating Makefile.win to build package using Visual C++
Message-ID: <47CB23DC.9080209@aon.at>

Dear all,

For testing purposes I have created a package "MyClass" containing C++ 
classes, which runs "R CMD check" on MacOS X and Linux w/o warnings. Now 
I want to create a Windows binary using MS Visual C++.

Using the "Makefile.win" shown below, I can compile the source code with 
Visual C++ using:
 >NMAKE /f "Makefile.win" CFG="Release"

However, when I modified the $(MYDLL) part to include "MyClass.def", and 
did:
 >R CMD INSTALL -l C:/home/CRAN/myRlib MyClass_0.3.2.tar.gz
I got the build error:
---------- Making package MyClass ------------
  adding build stamp to DESCRIPTION
  installing NAMESPACE file and metadata
  running src/Makefile.win ...
Makefile.win:3: *** missing separator.  Stop.
make[2]: *** [srcDynlib] Error 2
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make: *** [pkg-MyClass] Error 2

I have tried the following modification to include "MyClass.def":
$(MYDLL):     $(MYOBJ) $(RLIB) $(MAINR).def
              $(LD) $(SOFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) $(MYOBJ) $(OutPutOpt)$@

Please can someone tell me what might be wrong?

I know from the readme file that I need to do something like:
   link /dll /def:mypkg.def /out:mypkg.dll *.obj Rdll.lib
but it is not clear to me how to convert this example to my makefile?

Thank you in advance
Best regards
Christian
