Which 'include' directory do you mean? $RHOME/include or <pkg>/include? You could put a copy of the *.h files into inst/include to get them into <pkg>/include. Putting them into $RHOME/include isn't always desirable or possible (permission problems). If you install *.h files then you are probably also distributing *.so, *.dll, and *.lib (on Windows) files and they should go into a parallel directory. Where should they go? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bill Dunlap Insightful Corporation bill at insightful dot com "All statements in this message represent the opinions of the author and do not necessarily reflect Insightful Corporation policy or position." ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
