You found the answer. "littler" aka 'r' embeds R by loading the shared
library --- the libR.so you were looking for.

Unless you have R build with --enable-R-shlib, you will not be able to use r,
or for that matter other users of embedded R.

Hope this helps, Dirk

little r... do you mean the scripting front end for R? If so, the core
utility Rscript is probably installed (it was added in 2.5.0 I believe) and
provides the functionality of little r, including hash-bang lines. Check the
bin folder in the R installation.

If you are talking about something different, ignore this message :)

Re: [R] I don't see libR.so in my installation directory

2009-05-08 Thread Tena Sakai
Hi,

Maybe I know the answer to my own question.
When I built R 2.9.0, I didn't say:

  ./configure --enable-R-shlib

I know I have given "--prefix" flag, but that's
the only flag I used.

I would appreciate it, if someone would give me
a definitive answer, however.
