On Mac OS X 10.7.5, I installed Rcpp and RInside on R 3.0.2. If I go to RInside folder, I can see both lib and libs folder. However, in Rcpp folder, there is only libs folder that contains Rcpp.so and Rcpp.so.dSYM directory. Should Rcpp contain a lib folder with something like libRcpp.a and libRcpp.dylib so that I can link to it in g++?
Thank you!
The comment by @josilber is entirely correct. With the 0.11.0 release, we no longer need a user-facing library for Rcpp. As its NEWS file said:
\item Functions provided/used by \cpkg{Rcpp} are now registered
with R and instantiated by client package alleviating the new for
explicit linking against \code{libRcpp} which is therefore no
longer created.
RInside, as well as many other packages, was updated accordingly. From the ChangeLog of RInside:
* inst/examples/*/Makefile: Note that Rcpp (>= 0.11.0) no longer
requires the RCPPLIBS variable
[...]
* src/Makefile: PKG_LIBS no longer points to Rcpp's library
* inst/examples/standard/Makefile: Note that Rcpp (>= 0.11.0) no
longer requires the RCPPLIBS variable
