coatless-rpkg / rgen Goto Github PK

To allow for stand-alone script development, we'll need to add in a call to register the package with Rcpp attributes via the Rcpp.plugin.maker()

Add in $(SHLIB_OPENMP_CFLAGS) when Armadillo 7.900.0 ships with OpenMP 3.0 support for basic element-wise ops.

README is a bit vague...

Use:

• Package Intro
  • Supported Distributions
  • Installation Instructions
  • Using the package
    • standalone example
    • packaging example

Need to also add in a NEWS file to track changes / allow for release posts.

Wrap samplers under rgen namespace to avoid any heartache...

After deciding on #6, setup registration for the package ala:

http://thecoatlessprofessor.com/programming/r/registration-of-entry-points-in-compiled-code-loaded-into-r/

otherwise R CMD check will give...

checking compiled code ... NOTE

Found no calls to: 'R_registerRoutines', 'R_useDynamicSymbols'

The issue with the "multiple definition of" is originating from not having inline prefixed to the functions definitions. As a result, the function definitions have been exported by each object file regardless of whether the include guard was used.

Ewk!

Should these sampling distributions be available on call to R? With the header-library behind rgen, we can create a wrapper into R this way...

Downside: Two sets of documentation.. >.<
