Hi,
I have a package I was previously able to compile and use for R 2.6.
In the newer versions of R it did not work, so I am making it from scratch
using Rtools and new R version.
Looks like you have designed "mypack" in a way that it is supposed to
run only under the Windows GUI version of R, since there is a call to
winMenuAdd()
in the startup code.
In that case the load check does not work and you have to disable it and
build the binary via
R CMD INSTALL --build --no-test-load

However, I keep getting error after Rcmd build –binary mypack
Here is the complete log:
