Dear list,

i would like to build an own package using:

R CMD INSTALL --html --build --auto-zip -l folder spectral.methods

it seems to succeed as I get the following messages:

* installing *source* package 'spectral.methods' ...
** R
** data
Warning: empty 'data' directory
** preparing package for lazy loading
** help

* MD5 sums
packaged installation of 'spectral.methods' as spectral.methods_1.0.zip

* DONE (spectral.methods)

I can also load the package using library('spectral.methods') and everything seems to work fine. The way I understand the R CMD INSTALL command, however, lets me to expect that a zipped directory is created which does not happen.

Well, it said it was:

packaged installation of 'spectral.methods' as spectral.methods_1.0.zip

and that is how all the CRAN binaries are made. So look for a file of that name.

Do I need to zip the folder independently? Do I need to install some sort of zipping program?

You did, in Rtools ....

I have installed rtools.

Cheers
Jannis
