Hello R experts

I am googling and reading around, however, I can't get it working (perhaps because I do not understand much C, however, I'll give it a try). I am trying to include C++ code into an R routine, where the C++ code looks:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void foo (double* x, double* y, double* out)
{
        out[0] = x[0] + y[0];
}

Back in R, the command

R CMD SHLIB --preclean -o xplusy

works fine resulting in two new files, xplusy.o and xplusy.so. The wrapper in R is:

dyn.load("xplusy.so")
xplusy <- function(x, y){
  .C("foo", as.double(x), as.double(y), out=double(1))$out
}
xplusy(1, 2)
dyn.unload("xplusy.so")

Now, dyn.load() works and xplusy also shows up in getLoadedDLLs(). However, when invoking the function, xplusy(1, 2), R complains:

Error in .C("foo", as.double(x), as.double(y), out = double(1)): C symbol name "foo" not in load table

I found some hints concerning Fortran code producing this error message, but no help concerning C code.

Any help tips?

Thanks, *S*
