Something is causing Rcpp to be unable to detect the presence of {RcppArmadillo}, which can be seen in the lack of the include for it in the snippet you posted on SO (FWIW that site has multiple trackers and I'm not really a fan of being made a product to try to answer a question):
clang++ -mmacosx-version-min=10.13 \ -std=gnu++11 \ -I"/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/include" \ -DNDEBUG \ -I"/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Packages/Rcpp/include" \ -I"/Users/itpetersen/Desktop" \ -I/usr/local/include \ -fPIC -Wall -g -O2 -c helloworld.cpp -o helloworld.o Can you re-run the sourceRcpp() call with `verbose = TRUE` and paste the output here? Also, have you tried: remove.packages(c("Rcpp", "RcppArmadillo")) install.packages(c("Rcpp", "RcppArmadillo")) and trying everything again in a `--vanilla` R session? > On Aug 10, 2020, at 18:33, Isaac Petersen <isaac-t-peter...@uiowa.edu> wrote: > > I'm trying to compile C++ code in R so I can install packages from source. > I’m running R 4.0.2 on Mac OS X Catalina (10.15.6).
