Dear Prof. Ripley,
thanks for your prompt answer.
But under MS Visual Studio there is no make utility (nmake is used to link C++
projects from makefiles).
So is it possible to create R.lib with MS Visual Studio or should I install some
other compiler for that (gnuwin?)?
Best Regards,
Juri

It actually says:
You may if you prefer use Visual C++ to make the DLLs (unless they use
Fortran source!). First build the import library Rdll.lib by
make R.exp
lib /def:R.exp /out:Rdll.lib
in current versions of R. (Please note what the posting guide says about
updating *before* posting.)
