Thanks a lot for those examples, is there any example with Fortran

I wouldn't know.

What does 'depend on' mean here? (All the context has been removed,
pace the posting guide.)
If it means 'link to', then any package which uses BLAS or LAPACK is an
example. But strictly you cannot link to a DLL (although you can on
Windows, but on OS X what R calls DLL is not what OS X calls a 'dynamic
library').
If you want to dynamically load an external DLL then
- there are no Fortran examples on CRAN
- you need to ensure that the DLL is already linked to the Fortran
runtime (which typically Fortran DLLs are not).
