Installing SepOptim

[lasu...@gmail.com]

Hi all,

I'm trying to install the package and I keep getting errors. Previous recommendations by Joao,

restart a new session in RStudio/R and then try to do updates and install the SegOptim package - use option: Session > Terminate R in RStudio to start a new terminal and then run the installation code above.

Also note that it is not mandatory to update all the dependencies when installing SegOptim. You can opt to skip that part if you wish and do it later.

For SegOptim install.packages will not work because the package is not yet available on CRAN.

I have done it, then I have installed "remotes" package. I'm doing this:

remotes::install_github("joaofgoncalves/SegOptim")
Downloading GitHub repo joaofgoncalves/SegOptim@master
These packages have more recent versions available.
It is recommended to update all of them.
Which would you like to update?

 1: All                                             
 2: CRAN packages only                              
 3: None 

I'm not updating any of the packages because I get all sort of errors. So I'm just selecting [3] and I'm getting this error:


Enter one or more numbers, or an empty line to skip updates:

Any ideas? please?

Hi all,

I restarted everything and I updated R and then install the package as per instructions ... all good now :) 

Thank you!

Hi Angelica,

Thanks for the feedback. The previous issue was related to the lack of some package dependencies. In that case package ROCR needed to be installed first before compiling SegOptim.

Let me know if SegOptim works well for your case study. Because I am currently re-designing some parts of the package, it is very useful to have feedback from users to correct bugs and add new features.

Cheers

João
