Hi Thank you for your replies. In order to create a prototype would i need to build the libtorrent library? Or would including the source file in the package be enough?
I have used Rcpp and the.c(), .call() function before but i have never tried to "wrap" such a large librairy. If you have any advise, please feel free to share.
