Hi, A package with some C code needs to use the headers and shared library in another package during installation/compilation. The first one is achieved through the LinkingTo option in DESCRIPTION. For the second a Makevars file with
PKG_LIBS=$(R_HOME)/library/firstPkg/libs/firstPkg.so was being used. Problem this is not portable if the firstPkg package is not installed in the library folder inside R_HOME but lives somewhere else. What is the best way for Makevars or configure to find where a package lives? Or is there any other way to make sure the linking step finds where the shared library is located? Apologies if I missed something in the extensions manual, but my limited experience with autoconf might have made me not notice it. Many thanks, Iago ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
