Rcpp alongside NONMEM
Hi,
My colleagues and I are running into problems using modelling and simulation
tools which rely on Rcpp (e.g. Stan, mrgsolve, PKPDsim) alongside an existing
NONMEM installation. The problem is that we have TWO versions of compilers
installed - one for NONMEM and one from the Rtools set.
For NONMEM we're using gfortran 4.5.0 installed in C:\Program Files
(x86)\gfortran\libexec\gcc\i586-pc-mingw32\4.5.0. (Running Windows 8).
When Rtools installs it allows me to configure where the RBuildTools sits on
the PATH, but if I put it first (as recommended) then it stops NONMEM picking
up the gfortran compiler above, and NONMEM doesn't run successfully. But if I
put the RBuildTools further down the path, then it doesn't set up c++ as a
command line executable.
If anyone has experience at making these play nicely together without having to
hack the PATH, I'd be really interested to hear from you. While hacking PATH
variables is fine individually, it's not a recipe that's easily rolled out and
supported across an organisation... (Although I'd still like to know how you
might hack the PATH info to get this to work!).
