Submission from: (NULL) (15.195.185.82)
package XML_2.5-1
>library(XML) throws an error window saying:
"
RGui: RGui.exe - Unable to Locate Component
This application has failed to start becuase iconv.dll was not found.
Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
"
RGui then reports this:
Error in inDL(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now), ...) :
unable to load shared library 'c:/R/R-2.9.0/library/XML/libs/XML.dll':
LoadLibrary failure: The specified module could not be found.
Error : .onLoad failed in 'loadNamespace' for 'XML'
Error: package/namespace load failed for 'XML'
Indeed the error messages triggered by library(XML) seems to be a side effect of
a dll naming issue. This issue can be solve by _adding_ a copy of
Riconv.dll renamed as iconv.dll
and restarting RGui
