cxxfunction: inline C++ function

Description

Functionality to dynamically define an R function with inlined C++ code using the .Call calling convention.

The rcpp() wrapper sets the plugin to the “Rcpp” value suitable for using Rcpp.

Usage

cxxfunction(sig = character(), body = character(), 
            plugin = "default", includes = "", 
            settings = getPlugin(plugin), ..., verbose = FALSE)
rcpp(..., plugin="Rcpp")

Value

A function

Arguments

sig

Signature of the function. A named character vector

body

A character vector with C++ code to include in the body of the compiled C++ function

plugin

Name of the plugin to use. See getPlugin for details about plugins.

includes

User includes, inserted after the includes provided by the plugin.

settings

Result of the call to the plugin

Examples

Run this code
if (FALSE) {
# default plugin
fx <- cxxfunction(signature(x = "integer", y = "numeric"), 
	          "return Rf_ScalarReal(INTEGER(x)[0] * REAL(y)[0]);")
fx(2L, 5)

# Rcpp plugin
if (requireNamespace("Rcpp", quietly=TRUE)) {

    fx <- cxxfunction(signature(x = "integer", y = "numeric"), 
                      "return wrap( as(x) * as(y));",
                      plugin = "Rcpp" )
    fx(2L, 5)

    ## equivalent shorter form using rcpp()
    fx <- rcpp(signature(x = "integer", y = "numeric"),
               "return wrap(as(x) * as(y));")
}

# RcppArmadillo plugin
if (requireNamespace(RcppArmadillo)) {
	
    fx <- cxxfunction(signature(x = "integer", y = "numeric"),
                      "int dim = as(x);
		       arma::mat z = as(y) * arma::eye(dim, dim);
		       return wrap(arma::accu(z));",
                      plugin = "RcppArmadillo")
    fx(2L, 5)
}
}
