[Rcpp-devel] Exposing a large number of C++ classes in R
I've been thinking for a while about using clang to do source-to-source translation to generate the R bindings for a given c++ class. There are lots of examples online, but I haven't yet tackled this for R. http://eli.thegreenplace.net/2012/06/08/basic-source-to-source-transformation-with-clang http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28711580/how-to-write-a-source-to-source-compiler-api http://szelei.me/code-generator/ etc. good luck! -Whit

Hi, I am trying to write a package that exposes a large number of C++ classes from an external project to R and was looking into how to lighten the workload. Dirk already pointed my to the RcppR6 package, which looks really useful. However, even this would require to write quite a bit of yaml to achieve this. So, is there a converter (e.g. based on doxygen xml) that can help with the yaml writing? Does anyone have more experience and can give pointers on how to best approach this problem? Also, how best to handle multiple inheritance in this context? Thanks a lot for anyone's help! Holger
