Is C++ really necessary here? I have the following R function in plyr: quickdf <- function(list) { rows <- unique(unlist(lapply(list, NROW))) stopifnot(length(rows) == 1) names(list) <- make_names(list, "X") class(list) <- "data.frame" attr(list, "row.names") <- c(NA_integer_, -rows) list } which is basically equivalent (although I do some tricks with rownames). It's even more efficient if you copy and paste the contents instead of calling the function because then that avoids duplicating the input list, and instead modifies it in place.
