build_win: Build windows binary package.

Description

This function works by bundling source package, and then uploading to http://win-builder.r-project.org/. Once building is complete you'll receive a link to the built package in the email address listed in the maintainer field. It usually takes around 30 minutes. As a side effect, win-build also runs R CMD check on the package, so build_win is also useful to check that your package is ok on windows.

Usage

build_win(pkg = ".", version = c("R-release", "R-devel"), args = NULL,
  quiet = FALSE)

Arguments

pkg

package description, can be path or package name. See as.package for more information

version

directory to upload to on the win-builder, controlling which version of R is used to build the package. Possible options are listed on http://win-builder.r-project.org/. Defaults to R-devel.

args

An optional character vector of additional command line arguments to be passed to R CMD build if binary = FALSE, or R CMD install if binary = TRUE.

quiet

if TRUE suppresses output from this function.
