Wrong link on RForge page

[kenahoo]

There's a link to http://wiki.r-project.org/rwiki/doku.php?id=packages:cran:rjava on http://www.rforge.net/rJava/ which is broken. I assume the wiki moved, but I don't know where to, so I'm not sure what the right fix is.

AFAIR Philippe is trying to resolve the wiki issues so this is not really under our control at this point.

Is there a new location for the wiki, or does it just not exist right now? I ask because I have a question on Stack Overflow about rJava (http://stackoverflow.com/q/26048133/169947) and I'm guessing an answer might be in the wiki.

AFAIR the wiki is down for some technical reason, I don't think it moved.

BTW: you issue on SO has nothing to do with rJava - you're apparently failing to compile the modified code. Note that R does NOT provide facilities to compile Java code, it is the responsibility of the package author (mainly because R doesn't require JDK so there is no guarantee that compilers are available at install time - that's why most packages compile classes at build time, not install time).

Oh! Okay, I thought there was a way to get java compilation into the build process and I was just missing it. If I can get back to this issue (at work) I might try to submit a doc patch that makes it clear that the java has to be compiled manually, and how one might go about it. Thanks.
