Hi, After I used the command "make.cdf.package(chip.CDF)", it produced a cdf package subdirectory "chipcdf". When I checked the R package installation instruction for Windows, it required a zipped local file. So, I put the whole subdirectory into a linux system, and used the command "zip -r chipcdf chipcdf", it produced the zip file "chipcdf.zip" Then I used the R window bottom, Packages->Install Packages from local zipped files, and selected the file chipcdf.zip. It showed the following without error message. >install.packages(choose.files('',filters=Filters[c('zip','All'),]), .libPaths()[1], CRAN = NULL) updating HTML package descriptions Then I was trying to load the package, it gived the error message: > library(chipcdf) Error in library(chipcdf) : 'chipcdf' is not a valid package -- installed < 2.0.0? I am a beginner here, there must be something wrong with my procedure. But I don't the right way to do it. Could someone provide a help? Some web pages say using the function make.cdf.env to create CDF environment directly. >Chipcdf=make.cdf.env(chip.CDF) But I don't known in this case, how should the makeProbePackage command be used. I am trying to create the required packages to run the GCRMA? Could someone help with this? Thanks a lot!
