How to install Sxslt package on Windows? R

Question

In relation to this question, I need to install Sxslt package in R on a windows platform. I used RStudio to compile the package from the source, but it encountered an error. It returned a message about defining LIB_XSLT. Please see the log below:

> install.packages("Sxslt", repos = "http://www.omegahat.org/R", type="source")

Sxslt package which were provided by Omega Project is outdated now. It is better to use xslt package available at CRAN.

install.packages("xslt")
