#include <Rcpp11> file not found error


I am attempting to use the Rcpp11 package in r from it's source over at:

devtools::install_github("Rcpp11/Rcpp11")

I read here: http://blog.r-enthusiasts.com/2014/05/27/disambiguating-rcpp11-and-rcpp/

that I can use include <Rcpp11> + using namespace Rcpp11 at the head of my .cpp file but I get this error upon sourcing:

 egfile.cpp:1:10: fatal error: 'Rcpp11' file not found
 #include <Rcpp11>
           ^
 1 error generated.

where egfile.cpp:

#include <Rcpp11>
using namespace Rcpp11;

// Below is a simple example of exporting a C++ function to R. You can
// source this function into an R session using the Rcpp::sourceCpp 
// function (or via the Source button on the editor toolbar)

// For more on using Rcpp click the Help button on the editor toolbar

// [[Rcpp::export]]
int timesTwo(int x) {
   return x * 2;
}

Any help with this? or should I defer to the // [[Rcpp::plugins(cpp11)]] method ?

Update: using the attributes::sourceCpp()

devtools::install_github("Rcpp11/attributes")

then restart from a clean session:

library(Rcpp11)
attributes::sourceCpp("egfile.cpp") # in home directory.

I get:

Solution

  • Presumably, you are trying to compile it from R Studio, which will use Rcpp::sourceCpp. You need the implementation of sourceCpp from the attributes package to generate the glue code for Rcpp11. attributes is available from github:

    devtools::install_github("Rcpp11/attributes")
    

    Then use this version to compile your file, i.e.

    attributes::sourceCpp( "yourfile.cpp" )
    

    Compiling an Rcpp11 file using Rstudio ui is something we have not yet dealt with, but something we identified as needed here
