|     | Hello,
|     |
|     | I have a quick design question. I am working on a program that uses

|     have a
|     | C++ function with the following signature:
|     |
|     | double nll_singleton(
|     |     const VectorXd& theta,
|     |     const MatrixXd& ua,
|     |     const MatrixXd& ub,
|     |     const MatrixXd& Xmat,
|     |     const MatrixXd& Ymat);
|     |
|     | I would like to run R's optim over this function, where 'theta' is the
|     vector
|     | that I am optimizing over. Would I use RCpp::InternalFunction for this?
| 
|     Per rinside_sample9.cpp, possibly.
| 
|     | nll_singleton is going to call MPI and I would rather do it this way 
than
|     use
|     | mpi over R, if this is possible.
| 
|     Right.
| 
| What I meant was, rather than recode everything in R and use Rmpi.

Understood.

| 
| >R.parseEval("nll_singleton(c(1,2,3), matrix(1:10, nrow=3), ...etc..")
| 
| ?
|

| matrices.

I don't know. That's something you will have to work out.
