Great. | I used the windows dlsym() equivalent to call in to a handful of entry | points. Given that this forces you to use C datatypes, you get none of | the C++ operators that make Rcpp so useful - but in my case, the data | exchange is fairly coarse and predictable. Oh, so it is a) really limited to atomistic C types just like the old .C() interface b) also highly non-portable as it will work only on that one platform. Still, some people will want to try it regardless so it would be nice to have some more documentation.
