Hi Christian, Thanks for your interest in Rcpp, and for posting here.

Well, NumericVector et al aren't really made for all possible math ops done on vectors, real or complex. They are first and foremost storage types. But for the math we do have Armadillo and RcppArmadillo. So in the short run, I would suggest the following two-step procedure: i) have a good look at Armadillo (http://arma.sf.net) and use the cx_mat or cx_vec types for mulitplication; write a small test program to see that everything works ii) use RcppArmadillo to from R via Rcpp / RcppArmadillo to this functionality | I was able to successfully import get("*") as an Rcpp::Function and do | the multiplication through R. Is this the best option for now? I am sure we can do better than this but I am not sure all pieces are in place just yet.
