I've been having trouble debugging some C code that I'm writing as part of an R package. The code compiles and executes when I use R CMD SHLIB
from the Windows console (ie cmd.exe):
>R CMD SHLIB MaximumAgreementForest.c
gcc -m64 -I"C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-32~1.4RE/include" -DNDEBUG -I"d:/RCompile/r-compiling/local/local323/include" -O2 -Wall -std=gnu99 -mtune=core2 -c MaximumAgreementForest.c -o MaximumAgreementForest.o
gcc -m64 -shared -s -static-libgcc -o MaximumAgreementForest.dll tmp.def MaximumAgreementForest.o -Ld:/RCompile/r-compiling/local/local323/lib/x64 -Ld:/RCompile/r-compiling/local/local323/lib -LC:/PROGRA~1/R/R-32~1.4RE/bin/x64 -lR
The script also built correctly in Netbeans until I started using the functions R_alloc
and C_alloc
from the R libraries. Now it doesn't seem to be able to find the definitions of a number of R-specific functions. When I attempt to build the project in Netbeans the console lists the following:
cd 'C:\Work\Fun\implied_weight\MAF'

My script, a single .c file, contains the lines
#define USE_RINTERNALS
#include <R.h> // which itself #includes R_ext/Memory, R_ext Printf
#include <R_ext/Print.h>
#include <R_ext/Memory.h>
#include <Rinternals.h>
Figuring that Netbeans is failing to point to the relevant libraries, I have tried adding and removing C:/Program Files/R/R-3.2.4revised/include
and C:/Program Files/R/R-3.2.4revised/bin/x64
at File→Project Properties→General→Source folders , to no effect.
Under File→Project Properties→Build→C compiler , I have included C:/Program Files/R/R-3.2.4revised/include
.
When I add C:/Program Files/R/R-3.2.4revised/bin/x64/R.dll
to Build→Linker→Libraries→Libraries , via the Add Library... option, I receive the error c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.8.1/../../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lR
, and the linker exits without (before?) complaining about the undefined references.
When I subsequently add "C:/Program Files/R/R-3.2.4revised/bin/x64/", which is already in by System PATH, to Build→Linker→Additional Library Directories , the compiler fails with the message C:/Program Files/R/R-3.2.4revised/bin/x64/R.dll: file not recognized: File format not recognized
What am I missing... how can I point Netbeans to the relevant R libraries?
The File format not recognized
error is encountered when a 32-bit compiler tries to load to a 64-bit .dll (or vice-versa). Changing the path C:/Program Files/R/R-3.2.4revised/bin/x64/R.dll
to C:/Program Files/R/R-3.2.4revised/bin/i386/R.dll
resolved the problem.
