INSTALL-windows

Installation of the binary windows package
==========================================

This package is distributed as a .exe file and is suitable for 32 and 64 bits architectures :
spams-R-v2.6-2017-03-22.win32+amd64.exe

The installation process will :
  1. unpack files in "C:\Program Files\spams-R" (win32) or "C:\Program Files (x86)\spams-R" (win64)
  2. start R to install the real R package (spams_2.6.zip) from the above directory.
   NB: on a 64bits architecture, only the 64bits version of the module
   will be installed.


If you want to manually install the zip file :
     a) in the GUI interface of R, select Packages/'Install from zip file'
  and open the zip file
 or b) in an R console type :
    install.packages('spams_2.6.zip',repos=NULL)
Note : for a global install under windows-7, you must start R with administrator
privileges (right click on the icon)

--------------------
To run the given examples, open a "command" window and type :
a) on a 32bits system :
cd C:\Program Files\R\R-2.15.1\library\spams\inst\test
..\..\..\bin\Rscript test_spams.R -h
..\..\..\bin\Rscript test_spams.R

b) on a 64 bits system
..\..\..\bin\x64\Rscript test_spams.R -h
..\..\..\bin\x64\Rscript test_spams.R
