Dear all, I am trying to create a R interface to a C++ library which itself uses cmake as its build tool.
For experimenting the idea, I copy the entire source of the library to a sub-directory of "inst" and call "cmake" in the "configure" script, then call "make", which generates a static library. In another package, I write C code that interfacing with R and provide the PKG_LIBS variable with the path of the static library. This approach works on my machine (openSUSE), I would like to try to port it to windows in future. Since this package needs cmake at build time, is it possible to add cmake to the win-builder? And I have found two previous discussions about cmake: 1. https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-package-devel/2015q2/000097.html 2. https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-package-devel/2016q2/000897.html Also, I am in fact relative new to the build tools, do you have any suggestions or comments on the approach taken? The two packages are: 1. https://github.com/marlin-na/Rlibsymengine (ship the C++ library) 2. https://github.com/marlin-na/symengine.R Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
