Dear R experts,
recently I started developing a Rcpp package "OpenMPTest".
Within that package I want to use OpenMP, as in the following code example:
// header file
#include <omp.h>
using namespace Rcpp ;
RcppExport SEXP testOpenMP( SEXP nThreads ) ;
// cpp file
SEXP testOpenMP( SEXP nThreads ) {
BEGIN_RCPP
NumericVector numberThreads = NumericVector( nThreads );
omp_set_num_threads( numberThreads(0) );
#pragma omp parallel
{
// Code inside this region runs in parallel.
printf("Hello!\n");
}
END_RCPP
}
As I am an absolute newbie with writing C++ extensions and have not
much understanding of the Makevars file, I am unsure what to write
into it. Currently I have:
## Use the R_HOME indirection to support installations of multiple R version
PKG_LIBS = `$(R_HOME)/bin/Rscript -e "Rcpp:::LdFlags()"`
KG_CFLAGS = $(SHLIB_OPENMP_CXXFLAGS)
PKG_LIBS = $(SHLIB_OPENMP_CXXFLAGS)
## -- compiling for OpenMP
PKG_CXXFLAGS=-fopenmp
##
## -- linking for OpenMP
PKG_LIBS= -fopenmp -lgomp
Obviously compilation fails with error:
R CMD INSTALL OpenMPTest
Symbol not found: __ZTIN4Rcpp19index_out_of_boundsE
With standard setup of the above Makevars I get the
Symbol not found: omp_set_num_threads
Inline also does not work:
fb <- 'omp_set_num_threads(10);
+ #pragma omp parallel
+ { Rf_PrintValue(wrap("HALLO JUPP")); }
+ '
> funk <- cxxfunction( signature(), body=fb, plugin='Rcpp' )
error: ‘omp_set_num_threads’ was not declared in this scope
How do set the PKG_LIBS -and eventually other variables- to all
required values in a single statement?
Could anyone provide me with a working Makevars example, please?
Help will be much appreciated!
Kind regards and have a nice weekend!
Cheers!
