[R-SIG-Finance] IBrokers - reqOpenOrders and placeOrder not working

[omerle]

Hi,


1 - A friend under linux used svn linux http://ibrokers.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ to 
make 
a IBrokers directory.
Then I zipped the file.
2 - And I installed by doing :
install.packages("C:/R/Software/IBrokers.zip", repos=NULL)
Installing package(s) into ‘C:/R/R-last-version/library’
3 - 
library("IBrokers")
Error in library(IBrokers) : 'IBrokers' is not a valid installed package

(There is a IBrokers directory in my library)

Does the IBrokers 0.9-7 version is not working or I made something wrong ?

Thanks

----------------------------------------------

Checkout the code with svn and build it yourself. The current version is 0.9-7

On linux or mac, you'd do something like this

svn checkout http://ibrokers.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ ibrokers

That will checkout the code into a directory called ibrokers. Then you can

R --vanilla CMD INSTALL --build ibrokers

HTH,
Garrett
