Re: [Rcpp-devel] Review request: Sandboxed R integration via RInside

I've always had licensing concerns with RInside. I preferred Rserve and it worked well for our purposes years ago. This new code sounds like it is more flexible than Rserve and deserves to be a separate package, not in RInside. But that's a personal preference to avoid the *appearance* of licen

My $0.02. Dirk is right - pick something and stick with it, but avoid the raw pointers, especially if your experience is limited. It's much easier to learn the smart pointers std::shared_ptr and std::unique_ptr, or their boost equivalents, rather than deal with raw pointers in new code. htt
