Hi,
Has anyone managed to successfully call GetRNGstate() / PutRNGstate()
without crashing in a Windows environment (spec. XP)? I've compiled
successfully using both the latest Cygwin, latest Mingw, and the version
of Mingw suggested in "Building R for Windows" website, but when the
executable runs, it crashes; the functions themselves can run when I omit
GenRNGstate()/PutRNGstate, but return the same values every time. My
compilation command is, having copied R.dll to my current directory:
gcc -o prog.exe prog.c -I{R's include path} R.dll
I've also tried:
gcc -o prog.exe prog.c -I{R's include path} -L./ -lR
I've managed to successfully compile Rmath.dll and call R functions that
way, but remain puzzled why the first way doesn't work. I've read mention
of "initializing" R (within a C program I assume) but haven't found the
documentation that explains this.
My test program is simply:
#include <R.h>
int main() {
GetRNGstate();
PutRNGstate();
return 0;
}
I've also tried #include-ing host of the other .h files. Thanks!
Juice
