Hi there,
I'm writing an R extension that has a C component
that relies on two third
party libraries that I'm bundling
with the extension.
I'd like to statically link my resulting extension
so that I can rely on
the bundled versions of the libraries I'm
distributing, so there's two questions -
1, does R allow statically linked C extensions to be
used at runtime?
Yes
2, are there any standard ways of having R build my
extension statically?
Yes.
If you want to know more, follow the posting guide: this is not an
R-help topic, the missing 'at a minimum' information is vital ....
Apologies for spamming R-help, I suppose this should have gone to R-devel. I
can't ever remember the difference between
the two. So, Professor, if I re-post to R-devel would you be willing to
reveal any more detail for me? ;)
I also apologize for a lack of additional information, I'm happy to provide
you with any, but I'm not exactly sure
what else I can offer..I just want to build a statically linked R extension,
and it doesn't seem to be covered in "Writing R
Extensions". You seem to know the answer, any pointers would be greatly
appreciated.
You will need to tell us your OS, for a start.
Tyler
Thanks,
Tyler
