Exactly the same here. You misunderstood the example and failed to grasp the generality. All you do is specify a signature -- i.e. accepting two NumericVector and returning a third. Then the external pointer takes care of everything. You as the API provider known nothing about the supplied functions. Ditto in RcppDE. Optmises any function.
