Any successful case of Building Rcartogram for Win32

[hi_ono2001]

Hello.
 
  On this December, Japanese TV program(created by TV
Tokyo, one of TV broadcast station in Japan) used my
Java-based  area continued cartogram to generate various
cartograms.
 
  However my algorithm is too slow.
 
  Rcartogram(http://www.omegahat.org/Rcartogram/)  seems
to generate cartogram faster and its results very good.
 
  Does anyone succeed to build this program on Win32?


  Regards.

You'll need to build by hand with the FFTW3 DLL headers - ./configure will
most likely not work happily. The FFTW site describes Windows
installation, but you'll need to modify the source package more to help it
find the DLL and headers:

Thank you very much for your response.

 I've tried to buid Rcarogram using Rtools, but could not
succeed to configure.
