[Gretl-users] problems with gretl libr foreign blocks under win32

[Klein, Christoph]

Thanks for the fast help. I think adding the bin directory is sufficient. I have attached a sample script which provokes the error.

I've added a function maybe_print_R_path_addition() in
lib/src/gretl_win32.c, but I'm not making use of it yet.

I have a few questions before I activate this code. Is it overkill
to add the R "bin", "modules" and "lib"  directories to PATH? Can
we get away with just adding the "bin" directory?  And if we use
this, should it go into the Rsrc file?

Allin.
