Jos,
you omitted the crucial part but my guess would be that all you have
to do is to put #include <iostream> *before* R headers includes (R
defines "length" which throws off iostream).
Also note that using cout is not a good idea, because it is not
captured by R, you should be using Rprintf instead.
Cheers,
Simon
