[Rcpp-devel] Returning an element from a List with its attributes?

Hello Wush,
Indeed, thank you!

I will write more on this after I finish the code, since there are some
bits which are a mystery to me.

Hi Tal,

```
cppFunction('
std::vector<RObject>  temp2_fail(RObject x){
   std::vector<RObject> lower;
   List x_list(wrap(x));
   int n = x_list.size();
   lower.push_back(x);
   return(lower) ;
}
            ')
```

Is this what you want?

Dear list members,

I would like to be able to get an element pushed with its attributes,
and I came across the following problem:

cppFunction('
std::vector<List>  temp(List x){
   std::vector<List> lower;
   lower.push_back(x);
   return(lower) ;
}
            ')
x = list(structure(1L, animal = "cat"))
temp(x)
temp(x[1])
temp(x[[1]]) # is there a way to not make this output without attributes?



If I use RObject, it will solve it, but then I would later not be able
to iterate over the object, because I can't seem to get the .size() of an
RObject.

Here is the code with the RObject:


cppFunction('
std::vector<RObject>  temp2(RObject x){
   std::vector<RObject> lower;
   lower.push_back(x);
   return(lower) ;
}
            ')
x = list(structure(1L, animal = "cat"))
temp2(x)
temp2(x[1])
temp2(x[[1]]) # Now it works as I want, but the following wouldn't work:




cppFunction('
std::vector<RObject>  temp2_fail(RObject x){
   std::vector<RObject> lower;
   int n x.size();
   lower.push_back(x);
   return(lower) ;
}
            ')



Any ideas?
