Possible reasons for segmentation fault

Hi,

I have a written a C code for R and used R CMD SHLIB to compile it.
However, it returns segmentation fault on some 64 bits machines.

What is 'it'?  I presume you may mean trying to use the compiled code 
in R, but what you wrote suggests SHLIB segfaulted -- this almost 
always indicates a compiler bug.

What are some of the potential reasons for this?

User error - the scope is vast.

Thanks for the help/advice on the matter.

Read the posting guide (as you sent HTML, we know you haven't -- and 
if you had you would know that we need to know what platform you use) 
and then 'Writing R Extensions' chapter 4.

Best regards,
stan
