I am trying to get a handle on what R_useDynamicSymbols and R_forceSymbols are used for in the C init functions for R packages. From the documentation, they appear to have something to do with controlling visibility of functions within the compiled package library, but there is no description of when to use them and what Boolean value should be passed to them. Looking at several other R packages with C code, they all seem to use R_useDynamicSymbols and pass it false. Does anyone know when these should be used and why?
