Dear All, In a package, I am using ".C" to call some C functions. In one case, the number of elements of the return vectors are not known in R before the C call. (Two of the vectors are integers, the third is vector of character strings).
Passing from R a vector of the maximum possible size would be a huge waste. I understand one alternative is to use ".Call", but I'd rather avoid it if I can (all of the code seems working except for the return of values into R). Another would be to write to a file from C and then read that into R, but this looks very ugly. Are there any other reasonable alternatives, or should I just use .Call? Thanks, R. -- Ramon Diaz-Uriarte Statistical Computing Team Structural Biology and Biocomputing Programme Spanish National Cancer Centre (CNIO) http://ligarto.org/rdiaz ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
