Dear All,
I tried to write a C++ program that uses R internals and I encounter
"undefined reference" error when linking to libR.so. Here is an small
example of the program test.cpp:
extern "C" {
#include <config.h>
#include <IOStuff.h>
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
R_IoBufferInit(&R_ConsoleIob);
return 0;
}
}
I built it using:
g++ -o test -I/dir/to/R-2.5.0/src/include -L/dir/to/R-2.5.0/lib/R/lib -lR
test.cpp
and I got the error message:
/tmp/cc4zxrqh.o(.text+0x20): In function `main':
test.cpp: undefined reference to `R_ConsoleIob'
/tmp/cc4zxrqh.o(.text+0x25):test.cpp: undefined reference to `R_IoBufferInit'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
I installed R 2.5.0 on Fedora Core 4 with gcc 4.0.2 and configured with
--prefix=/dir/to/R-2.5.0 --enable-R-shlib
I did that with R 2.2.1 and can build without problem. Any suggestion on
how to link to libR.so in later R versions? Your help is very appreciated.
Best regards,
Jiangtian
