Hi,
I am planning to use R as the backend in my application and VB

to be able to integrate the R interpreter into the application

installing the application should take care of everything. Is
this something
which is possible with R
Is your application licensed under the GPL, or a compatible license? .
Then I don't think there's any basis for an objection. The only issues
are in doing it: we use Inno Setup as our installer, and it could
certainly set things up for you. The easiest way to do this is to make
a model installation on your own machine, then run Inno Setup to make an
installer from it. If your application needs configuration (e.g.
setting local directories, registry entries, etc.) then it's more work,
but it's all fairly straightforward. R can make use of such
customizations (and our installer does them), but it doesn't need them.
