thank you very much

You can find many guides on google search Cygwin.

Better way is to run a virtual Linux environment and install torch on it.
Cygwin may not perform as well

Cross-compiling R packages with Fortran shared library

I am developing an R package that relies on some Fortran subroutines. I write my code under Linux, but to be able to collaborate with my colleagues who work with Windows, I would like to be able to compile a Windows version of my package.
How to compile an R package for Windows under Linux? I have been looking into this issue on the web and found many suggestions and possible solutions, but no clear advice on how to do this with recent versions of R. It looks like cross-compiling was supported in previous versions of R, but not anymore today.
I am able to compile my Fortran subroutine for Windows under Linux using MinGW, but I am not sure about the next steps to create a package that can be installed on Windows. Does anyone have experience with this?
Any help would be much appreciated, thank you!

Installing cvxopt for python - Where do I find libblas.a and liblapack.a

I've got a (what I assume to be) rather simple question regarding the installation of cvxopt on Windows. I'm following this "guide" http://cvxopt.org/install/index.html. But I've got stuck on the part where you're supposed to
Copy libblas.a and liblapack.a to the src directory.
I think it's fair to say to I'm very lousy at these kind of things and that I've got no idea of what I'm doing. So I would be greatly helpful if someone could tell me where I could find these. I guess it has something to do with:
make lapacklib && cp liblapack.a ..
and
make && cp blas_WIN.a ../libblas.a
But I can't really make anything of this...
Thanks in advance!
cvxopt is included in WinPython. Even if you won't use WinPython directly, it's probably the easiest way to get cvxopt on Windows: After installing WinPython, you can copy the cvxoptfolder from the Lib\site-packagesdirectory into the corresponding one of your Python distribution.
Edit:
It's again available under the unofficial windows binaries.
Unfortunately the cvxopt 1.1.7 currently distributed with the unofficial windows binaries has issues with the current winpython 2.7.6.4 (or maybe has issues on its own). In my experience you could encounter many weird problems like code throwing math domain errors or arithmetic errors where things used to work perfectly fine on winpython 2.7.6.2 and the cvxopt 1.1.6 included there. I do not think that it is a problem with cvxopt 1.1.7 since it works fine on linux, rather of the specific binary packaging or maybe incompatibility of such packaging with the latest winpython.
If you are encountering such issues, maybe you can stay with winpython 2.7.6.2 that is the last version shipping a working cvxopt.

Porting C application from linux to windows

I am porting a linux wxwidgets app to windows, using MinGW and Code::Blocks. The app has some dependencies that I don't know how to sort out on Windows:
1) endian.h
2) sqlite3.h
1) I can't seem to find a windows version of functions like be32toh(). Anyone know where I can get these?
2) How do you install the sqlite3 include file(s) and libraries? I see various tarballs on the sqlite download page, but it seems I must build sqlite3 from source. Is that correct?
Many thanks,
Thomas
1) Use endianness macros provided by wxWidgets; wxINT32_SWAP_ON_LE and others. Obviously it makes sense to use them also in the Linux version to avoid duplicating essentially the same functionality. See the wx documentation.

How to install and manage multiple versions of R

I am working on a machine that has older version of R. I don't have root access on the machine, and the sys admin is on a vacation.
So the question I have is, how can I install and manage (the packages, especially) the latest version of R? Obviously I need to download the R package and install it, but a few detailed instructions from the community will help.
R noob here. Help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
