Vincent,
First of all, thank you for publishing such useful package. This is a very
valuable contribution and I would be glad to contribute to the
RProjectConnector project. There is one thing which bothers me: Having to
manually copy the R library files (.dll or .so) is time-consuming and
prevents unattended installation.
In BioSmalltalk I am currently downloading library files supporting several
URI locations by using Metacello. This is just adding a line in the
#baseline: method
spec preLoadDoIt: #preLoad.
The problem could be incompatibility of versions between the R installed in
the user's machine and the .dll/.so versions provided by the
RProjectConnector. A better option is to detect the R installation path and
copying the libraries to the pharo-vm/ directory. What do you think?
Cheers,
Hernán
