Compile source code for Windows (10)

To compile the source code on Windows mingw is required with mingw32-pthreads-w32. see http://mingw-w64.org/doku.php.

After installing mingw, run the following in cmd to compile and link the entire source (src) directory. The source code can be downloaded here.

cd c:/madingley/
mkdir dist_%date:~-4,4%%date:~-10,2%%date:~7,2%_win
cd src
for /r %i in (*.cpp) do g++ -std=c++11 -w -c -g -fopenmp -static-libgcc -static-libstdc++ %i
g++ -fopenmp -static-libgcc -static-libstdc++ -o madingley.exe *.o
del /S *.o
move madingley.exe ..
cd ..
move /y madingley.exe dist_%date:~-4,4%%date:~-10,2%%date:~7,2%_win

Next, the compiled executable (madingley.exe) can be found in a folder called dist_{dateoftoday}_win, needs to be moved into the MadingleyR package library (e.g. into path/to/pacakge/library/MadingleyR/win_exec). This will make sure the package will call the new C++ executable. The following R code can be used to obtain the path of the MadingleyR library (function is part of the MadingleyR pacakage):
