I am still having some difficulties with connecting R to a C++ function. I
am able to call the function as expected after compiling the shared library
and such. However, the call to the function is via .C; parameters from the
.C call are not being passed correctly to the function. As an example, I
have attached a GDB run of the code. I set a breakpoint on entry to the
function I am calling from R. What is bothering me (and probably causing
the segmentation faults I am seeing) is that the parameter
prm=as.double(c(3.2,1.1)) is not 3.2,1.1 IMMEDIATELY after the call to .C.
I am sure I am missing something very basic.
Thanks,
Sean
