Maybe you need to set some flag in NAMESPACES to ask the package to load
required libraries.
Hope that help.
Hey again,
I built the default Rcpp.package.skeleton rcpp_hello_world to take in
strings and it worked fine. My problems seem to be from the libraries
themselves. I recompiled the libraries that I could to be shared
libraries and now the package builds the .so file, but I still get an
error when checking the package.
Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) :
unable to load shared object
'/home/jrussell/src/C++/NLP/RDGGDriver/SantosDartmouth.Rcheck/SantosDartmouth/libs/SantosDartmouth.so':
liblink_4_1b.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or
directory
The library liblink_4_1b.so is link grammar with slight modifications to
work with C++ code instead of C code and doesn't have an R package. I
have placed all libs in the src directory of the package, and they can
all be found at build time, and the .so file seems to be correctly
built, but then when it is checked, it seems not to use the same
ldflags that it uses when building (PKG_LIBS). Is this something that I
need to set separately? I have tried ??Makevars and google searches for
"R Makevars" and "external libraries Rcpp" and not found much. Are there
any concrete examples of packaging external libraries inside of R
packages? I have gone through all of the vignettes that I could find and
can't seem to find anything about including pre-built .so files in
packages. I suspect this is to keep source-only, but the libraries are
not all mine and I don't have this option available.
Thanks!
Jacob Russell
P.S. Time-To-Response on this mailing list is probably the best that I
have ever seen on a mailing list. Congrats!
