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

[omerle]

Thanks Joshua !

It works now !

But I didn't assume anything. I just didn't know that I was building binary packages. 
Without the right keyword I couldn't find any useful documentation and even with what 
you sent to me its quite hard for me to remember the consol thing with cd.. and so 
forth.

Again thanks for your help Joshua.
