In the init.c file, do I have to change 'void' to corresponding declaration? E.g: extern void F77_NAME(datacon)(void *, void *, void *, void *, void *, void *, void *, void *, void *, void *, void *);
I don't think you need to change anything in the generated file. At least I didn't, and I believe Brian Ripley mentioned that the script generated fully working init files for hundreds or thousands of packages with compiled code and only needed manual changes for tens of packages when they tested it on CRAN.
Also, how do I know the package passes the CRAN incoming feasibility as it does not show any warnings or notes on my R CMD CHECK --as-cran. Re submit and see again?
You can use R-Hub as a way to check your package on the development version: https://github.com/r-hub/rhub#readme If you have your package on a public remote git repository, you can additionally set up a continuous integration service like travis-ci: https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/languages/r/ and use that to check against devel.
I agree that R-Hub is a great solution, and I have used it several times myself. You can even just use the website to submit a package: https://builder.r-hub.io/advanced But the R interface is nice, so it is recommendable to install the rhub package. Alternatively, submitting to http://win-builder.r-project.org/ also lets you test under R-devel. Best, Ege
Best, Zhian

You should be able to find info on this list or elsewhere. Basically you need to make a file called e.g. init.c in your src/ with the appropriate code. This file can be auto-generated for you as described by Dirk here: http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/blog/2017/03/30/#002_even_easier_package_registration Good luck!

I tested on my macOS with R CMD CHECK and R CMD --as-cran, both went through with one NOTE ( Maintainer: NOTE). * checking compiled code ...

See 'Writing portable packages' in the 'Writing R Extensions' manual. I did go through the manual (section 5.4), but didn't understand much. Can someone help to resolve this issue?
