The list archive has some Google juice. If you type a specific >question, you sometimes gets the list. That is a Good Thing. The frustrating part is that hundreds of R-related lists are on the same server, so even if I use Google's "site:" operator I tend to get a lot of unrelated results at the same time, and I have trouble telling good stuff from bad stuff at my current skill level. >Gmame.org indexes it.

I'll try Gmane.org for searching, that will be helpful. But according to http://post.gmane.org/post.php?group=gmane.comp.lang.r.rcpp , posting is not allowed. >[ Lastly, remember that Romain and I do this as volunteers. Yes, of course. I'm just wondering if there's a way to do the social engineering better, taking advantage of other community members for the "easy" stuff, and freeing you to concentrate on aspects you might find more rewarding. Closed, purpose-built lists don't really have a good way to get people who start out casually involved to become more intimately involved. >Now: your question.

Looking at the source & docs for cxxfunction() I'm not sure how that's accomplished. It looks like the "..." argument is just silently ignored, and I think in this case the specific library isn't important, maybe I should try linking against some library "everyone" has (but that's not already linked in R.app) to make sure the problem doesn't lie with the library.

I guess part of my problem is that I don't yet know how to do that, so I was trying the "easier" prototyping method of using inline, to make a nice succinct test case. -Ken _______________________________________________ Rcpp-devel mailing list Rcpp-devel@lists.r-forge.r-project.org https://lists.r-forge.r-project.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rcpp-devel
