Hello,
I am trying to see if I can get RMatlab from Omegahat
(http://www.omegahat.org/RMatlab/) working on OS 10.6.4 to be able to call
R from Matlab.
I am following the instructions at:
http://www.stanford.edu/~dgleich/notebook/2009/09/rmatlab_using_r_from_matlab.html
I got to the point of running the ./configure script (see below) where the
script complains that libR.so cannot be found. I searched my Mac for a
libR.so file, but could not find it. I am using the latest OSX binary from
CRAN, and I read in the R for Mac OS X FAQ that it is already compiled as
a shared library.
If there are likely to be non-trivial changes involved in trying to
compile it for OSX, then probably doing it by myself is beyond my current
ability, as is also probably already obvious.
Seeking hints/guidance/advice...
Very best and many thanks, Suresh

There is no R shared library (libR.so), so you cannot run R within Matlab.
You will only be able to start Matlab from within R
If this is not what you want, reinstall R from source with the
configuration option
./configure --enable-R-shlib
If you have already compiled R as a shared library but this script has
not been able
to find it, set the environment variable R_SHARED_LIB_DIR to the name of
the directory
in which it is located and re-install this package
Looking for mclmcr.h
checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output... a.out
checking whether the C compiler works... yes
checking whether we are cross compiling... no
checking for suffix of executables...
checking for suffix of object files... o
checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes
checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes
checking for gcc option to accept ANSI C... none needed
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating inst/scripts/RMatlab.csh
config.status: creating inst/scripts/RMatlab.sh
config.status: creating src/Makefile
Using the following settings
Mex compiler: /Applications/MATLAB_R2007B/bin/mex
Mex extension: mexmaci
Mex linker flags: -Wl,-flat_namespace -undefined suppress
-bundle
R shared library directory:
Installation directory:
*********************************************************
To set the environment variables to run R from within Matlab
or vice versa, source the relevant shell script into your shell
before running Matlab or R
Bourne or Bash shell:
. /scripts/RMatlab.sh
Csh or Tcsh shell:
source /scripts/RMatlab.csh
