R version 3.3.2 and arcgisbinding

BrooksBreece — Fri, 17 Feb 2017 23:21:37 GMT

Good evening,

I get the following warning when trying to install arcgisbinding:

> install.packages("arcgisbinding") Installing package into ‘C:/Users/Jon/Documents/R/win-library/3.3’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified) Warning in install.packages : package ‘arcgisbinding’ is not available (for R version 3.3.2)

Should I switch to an older version of R?

Brooks,

The r-bridge-install toolbox that you ran to show the R Installation Details can be used to install the bridge -- that will make the package available in R without using `install.packages'. The package itself isn't on CRAN, and that's why the installation command doesn't work. The bridge should work fine with any version of R 3.1 or later.

Cheers,
Shaun
