RInside installation error

Question

I am trying to make a R development environment in my computer. During last hour, I could successfully install RTools and RCpp. But when I tried the last element RInside package, I get following error. I can see the reason is because g++ or make does not recognize path including space (Program Files -> Files) But how can I change the make file or batter question is ... where is the make file producing following compilation?

Answer 1

Install in a path that does not include spaces -- I like C:/opt/R/R-library/ for my R packages.

The final link command fails because of the space.

This question has been asked and answered numerous times before here and on the rcpp-devel list.

Answer 2

It looks like this page has a link to a binary version of RInside for Windows. I downloaded it and it seems to also include source.

http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/RInside/index.html

Windows binary: RInside_0.2.8.zip
