I have been reading "Exposing C++ functions and classes with Rcpp modules" and find the idea interesting. However, I read in Section 5 that objects created using an external pointer are not persistent from session to session.
For my purposes, I think I could use S4 objects that make C++ copies of themselves at creation time, accessible via an external pointer. All methods would then make use of the C++ copies for speed, and at the end of the session the S4 copies that live in the R side would be saved. I am thinking of writing code which at the start of a session checks all (S4) objects in the workspace and recreate the C++ copies. Is this the way to go? Has someone with a similar problem devised an alternative solution? If anyone can offer some hints (or better yet, point to some package that I can use for inspiration) I would be grateful.
