Building the Rlabkey Package on Windows

**Note: ** this requires using the cygwin dlls from the Rtools installation, rather than any preexisting cygwin installation.

  • Install Rtools

    • Tested with Rtools35
    • Default components are correct
    • Do not unselect the Cygwin DLLs component
      • TCL/TK is not required
    • Allow installation to edit the system path
      • Click next. There is then an editable preview of the new system path. Leave as is.
      • If reinstalling Rtools, make sure there is only one copy of the new entries in the path
  • Install MiKTeX for Latex support

    • After installation, open the MiKTeX package manager and install these additional packages:
      • fancyvrb
      • inconsolata
      • mptopdf
      • url
  • Install qpdf

  • Run ./gradlew build
