R-3.6上的RDCOMClient安装故障

Question

我无法使用R-3.6安装RDCOMClient

一些背景知识: RDCOMClient在我的R-3.51实例中工作，我需要使用3.6，并且我需要使用RDCOMClient来与我桌面的Outlook进行交互。mailR和sendmailR目前不是一个选项。

我试过了：

>install.packages("RDCOMClient")

我怀疑RDCOMClient不支持3.6，因为它不在这里的目录中：http://www.omegahat.net/R/bin/windows/contrib/，但我想在继续之前，我想我应该在这里尝试一下。

我能做些什么让它工作吗？

Answer 1

事实并非如此，RDCOMClient不支持R3.6。它只是(还没有)用3.6x编译，并被放在存储库"http://www.omegahat.net/R/bin/windows/contrib/3.6/“中当前版本的子目录中。然而，使用R3.5x编译的0.93-0版本与R3.6x完全兼容，只需从3.5目录"http://www.omegahat.net/R/bin/windows/contrib/3.5.1/“下载并以压缩格式从本地PC安装即可。

或者直接做

url <- "http://www.omegahat.net/R/bin/windows/contrib/3.5.1/RDCOMClient_0.93-0.zip"
install.packages(url, repos=NULL, type="binary")

Answer 2

这对我很有效

library("devtools")
install_github('omegahat/RDCOMClient')

Answer 3

RDCOMClient目前似乎不支持R3-6。要解决此问题，我必须切换到选项中的R3.51版本，以运行RDCOMClient并发送电子邮件。

这不是一个理想的解决方案，但在他们发布更新版本之前将会有效。
