Rtools 3.4

I am unclear what "still wants" means here. There are no direct dependencies between the Cyclops source code and RTools (beyond gcc >= 4.6.3). I suspect there are other packages for which you have already compiled with the older compiler that no longer link when some packages are compiled with the newer compiler.

What is the error message you are getting? And steps did you take to generate that message? Plus, further info about your system (R version, package versions, etc.) would be helpful.

You may want to also try devtools::find_rtools().

Ok let me be more clear then :)

1. I installed the latest version of Rtools which is currently 3.4
2. I run install_github("ohdsi/Cyclops") in R

results: popup "Install Build Tools" Building R package from source requires installation of additional build tools. Do you want to install the additional tools now?"

It then installs Rtools 3.3 and the install_github works fine afterwards. I would expect Rtools3.4 would be enough since:
devtools::find_rtools()
[1] TRUE

I reproduced this by removing Rtools 3.3 and do the whole thing again.

Pop-up error message is from devtools. Not likely a Cyclops issues. @PRijnbeek, please re-open if this issue remains after Rtools 3.4 becomes default.
