I've been trying to get R+PostgreSQL+PL/R to work together on a OSX machine without the Framework and CoreFoundation options and have noticed some suspicious switches when compiling packages.
I've installed R (on OSX) with the following ./configure: ./configure \ CC="gcc -arch i386" \ CXX="g++ -arch i386" \ OBJC="gcc -arch i386" \ F77="gfortran -arch i386" \ FC="gfortran -arch i386" \ --enable-R-framework=no \ --enable-R-shlib \ --without-blas \ --x-includes=/usr/X11/include \ --x-libraries=/usr/X11/lib Notice the --enable-R-framework=no \ --enable-R-shlib \ No flames please.I'm sure I'm breaking lot's of R purist-isms. There's a bigger picture here than trying to get R and packages to build by themselves. When I build packages, using sudo R, for example: > install.packages(c("rconifers"), + lib="/usr/local/lib/R/library", + repos="http://cran.r-project.org", + dependencies=TRUE ) the package seems to get built with the "-Wl,-framework - Wl,CoreFoundation" switches, even when R isn't built with the framework (and CoreFoundation) options. For example: gcc -arch i386 -std=gnu99 -dynamiclib -Wl,-headerpad_max_install_names -undefined dynamic_lookup -single_module -multiply_defined suppress -L/ usr/local/lib -o rconifers.so coeffs.o file_io.o grow.o mortality.o plot.o rconifers.o sample.o smc_coeffs.o smc_model.o stats.o swo_coeffs.o swo_model.o thin.o -L/usr/local/lib/R/lib -lR -Wl,- framework -Wl,CoreFoundation I would like to build packages without the "-Wl,-framework - Wl,CoreFoundation" options because I'm going to install it on other OS (FreeBSD, Linux, whatever) Does this cause a problem? Will this cause a problem? I'm guessing the CoreFoundations are an artifact of the XCode compiler. What's with the -Wl,-framework stuff? Can I make it stop? Will I be okay? Thanks, Jeff.
