Ah ok, so you want to use this from R, I would suggest to Rcpp::export a dispatcher, something like this:

#include <Rcpp.h>
using namespace Rcpp ;

// the template
template <int RTYPE>
Matrix<RTYPE> vec2matrix__impl(Vector<RTYPE> x, int nrow, int ncol) {
  return Matrix<RTYPE>(nrow, ncol, x.begin());
}

// the exported dispatcher,used from R
// [[Rcpp::export]]
SEXP vec2matrix(SEXP x, int nrow, int ncol){
    switch( TYPEOF(x) ){
case REALSXP: return vec2matrix__impl( NumericVector(x), nrow, ncol ) ; case INTSXP: return vec2matrix__impl( IntegerVector(x), nrow, ncol ) ;
        // ... add other cases you want to handle
    default:
        return R_NilValue ;
        // .. or do whatever
    }
}


/*** R
    vec2matrix( 1:10, 2, 5 )
    vec2matrix( rnorm(10), 2, 5 )
***/

Romain,

I actually already tried this in my file util.cpp but can't get it to work:

#include <Rcpp.h>

using namespace Rcpp;

// [[Rcpp::export]]
NumericMatrix vec2matrix(NumericVector x, int nrow, int ncol) {
   return NumericMatrix(nrow, ncol, x.begin());
}

// [[Rcpp::export]]
template <int RTYPE>
Matrix<RTYPE> vec2matrix2(Vector<RTYPE> x, int nrow, int ncol) {
   return Matrix<RTYPE>(nrow, ncol, x.begin());
}

Any thoughts?

Don't Rcpp::export templates.

Hello Søren,

This is easy templating:

template <int RTYPE>
Matrix<RTYPE> vec2matrix(Vector<RTYPE> x, int nrow, int ncol) {
        return Matrix<RTYPE>(nrow, ncol, x.begin()); }

will work for NumericVector, IntegerVector, CharacterVector, ...

Dear all,

Dirk: Thanks for the reply :).

I shall dare to ask a "bonus question": I've played around with templating so 
that I get the right output type. I know (thanks to an earlier reply by Romain) how to do 
so using SEXP's but if I am constructing a utility function to be used on c++ objects, I 
can't that to work. What I am after should mimic the following such that the output type 
is determined by the input type:

NumericMatrix vec2matrix(NumericVector x, int nrow, int ncol) {
    return NumericMatrix(nrow, ncol, x.begin()); }

IntegerMatrix vec2matrix(IntegerVector x, int nrow, int ncol) {
    return IntegerMatrix(nrow, ncol, x.begin()); }

Any help would be more than welcome.

Best regards
Søren

Soren,

You missed the most appropriate constructor:

      template <typename Iterator>
      Matrix( const int& nrows_, const int& ncols, Iterator start ) ;

With that we just do this:

    R> Rcpp::sourceCpp('/tmp/soren.cpp')
    R> soren(1:4,2,2)
         [,1] [,2]
    [1,]    1    3
    [2,]    2    4
    R>

and the file soren.cpp is below.

Dirk


#include <Rcpp.h>

using namespace Rcpp;

// [[Rcpp::export]]
NumericMatrix soren(NumericVector x, int n, int k) {
    return NumericMatrix(n, k, x.begin()); }
