strange error in attributes::sourceCpp("test.cpp")

[jedazard]

While testing the Rcpp11 installation (from Github) on my laptop (Windows 8.1), I get the following error :

writeLines( '

• include

• // [[export]]
• IntegerVector foo(){
• return {1, 2, 3} ;
• }
• ', "test.cpp" )

attributes::sourceCpp("test.cpp", verbose=T) Error in system("uname -r", intern = TRUE) : 'uname' not found

This is strange because it did not appear during the UseR 2014 tutorial about a week ago and it persists even after re-installing R 3.1.0 and Rtools 3.1... I checked the Rtools installation, it seems fine. Libraries 'Rcpp11' and 'attributes' load properly. Also happens on Desktop (Windows 7)... Bizarre. Any idea?

Works! (after re-installing the Rcpp11 and attributes libraries from GitHub) Even on Windows machines... apparently.
