Dear Ross Thank you for this clarification, maybe there is something misconfigured on my Intel-Mac. BTW, I have now upgraded to XCode 2.4.1 from 2.4, but the result remains the same.
I don“t know if this could help clarify what might be wrong, but I am not able to compile plier, a simple package containing an R-wrapper around Affymetrix C++ plier code. This is the output I get when trying to compile plier: m3450p027:/Volumes/CoreData/CRAN/Bioconductor/packages rabbitus$ R_ARCH=/i386 R CMD INSTALL -l ~/Library/R/library plier_1.4.0.tar.gz * Installing *source* package 'plier' ... ** libs ** arch - i386 g++-4.0 -arch i386 -I/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/include -I/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/include/i386 -msse3 -fPIC -g -O2 -march=nocona -c affyplier.cpp -o affyplier.o /Volumes/CoreData/temp/cc3VRxb1.s:4750:indirect jmp without `*' /Volumes/CoreData/temp/cc3VRxb1.s:4769:indirect jmp without `*' /Volumes/CoreData/temp/cc3VRxb1.s:4784:indirect jmp without `*' /Volumes/CoreData/temp/cc3VRxb1.s:4799:indirect jmp without `*' /Volumes/CoreData/temp/cc3VRxb1.s:4818:indirect jmp without `*' /Volumes/CoreData/temp/cc3VRxb1.s:4833:indirect jmp without `*' g++-4.0 -arch i386 -I/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/include -I/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/include/i386 -msse3 -fPIC -g -O2 -march=nocona -c plier_impl.cpp -o plier_impl.o /Volumes/CoreData/temp/ccLq6FYI.s:554:indirect jmp without `*' /Volumes/CoreData/temp/ccLq6FYI.s:569:indirect jmp without `*' /Volumes/CoreData/temp/ccLq6FYI.s:584:indirect jmp without `*' /Volumes/CoreData/temp/ccLq6FYI.s:599:indirect jmp without `*' /Volumes/CoreData/temp/ccLq6FYI.s:618:indirect jmp without `*' g++-4.0 -arch i386 -I/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/include -I/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/include/i386 -msse3 -fPIC -g -O2 -march=nocona -c plieralg.cpp -o plieralg.o plieralg.cpp:30:20: error: malloc.h: No such file or directory make: *** [plieralg.o] Error 1 chmod: /Users/rabbitus/Library/R/library/plier/libs/i386/*: No such file or directory ** arch - ppc g++-4.0 -arch ppc -I/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/include -I/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/include/ppc -I/usr/local/include -fPIC -g -O2 -c affyplier.cpp -o affyplier.o g++-4.0 -arch ppc -I/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/include -I/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/include/ppc -I/usr/local/include -fPIC -g -O2 -c plier_impl.cpp -o plier_impl.o g++-4.0 -arch ppc -I/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/include -I/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/include/ppc -I/usr/local/include -fPIC -g -O2 -c plieralg.cpp -o plieralg.o plieralg.cpp:30:20: error: malloc.h: No such file or directory make: *** [plieralg.o] Error 1 chmod: /Users/rabbitus/Library/R/library/plier/libs/ppc/*: No such file or directory ERROR: compilation failed for package 'plier' ** Removing '/Users/rabbitus/Library/R/library/plier In any case, the problem seems to be R-specific, since the same code for my package MyClass runs fine, when compiled as a shared library and called from other C++ code. BTW, since I do not have an url, I would like to attach my package, so that people could try it. In my initial mailing I have attached my package as MyClass_0.1.2.tar.gz, but it got scrambled as https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/attachments/20070204/2e7fb79c/attachment.gz Is there a possibility to attach it in a way so that people can use it?
