To whom it may concern, I am very interested in embedding the R functionality in our application. This is a C application that currently runs on Win32, but will also run on Linux in the future. From the material that I have seen, I need R compiled as a shared library to evaluate R expressions from C. Is this correct? If so, can I download this shared library from somewhere? Is there any API document pertaining to this shared library?
You want to look at the "Writing R Extensions" manual, in particular the chapters on the R API (for access to the underlying computational routines) and the one on linking GUIs or other front-ends (which sounds more like what you want to do). Duncan Murdoch
