Hi Dan,

Thanks for switching to the list.

I think I just had that yesterday at work -- you do have to be careful

to use

_matching_ RInside and Rcpp releases.  Which I why going with CRAN is a

good

option.

Using the _released_ versions 0.7.11 for Rcpp and 0.2.2 for RInside

should

'just work'.   As Romain said, please send along the version numbers

you used.

Totally. It seems though that when you install from cran you get Rcpp
0.7.10 even though cran advertizes 0.7.11, but I did not try all

mirrors.

It is not uncommon for the OS X binaries on CRAN to lag the other
versions of a package.  It seems that building the OS X binaries is
more involved than even the Windows binaries.

I solve the problem of lagging OS X binaries by installing Linux on
any Macs I use and ignoring the OS X system.  Now if only I could get
around the stupid 1-button mouse and bizarre key mappings.  :-)

There is a setting in System preferences > Mouse that lets you emulate a
two button mouse (at least with the magic mouse that was shipped with mine)

For the keyboard, I am still hostage. I often google for the keystrokes.

(The true sign of a died-in-the-wool Macophile is when they try to
convince why a 1-button mouse is really a good idea.)

not there yet.

We do try to make pretty sure that this works for _released_ versions.

Rcpp tends to change a lot so there sometimes is something changing at

its

side that may not yet be reflected at the RInside side. We try to

minimise

that but it happens. Sticking with the releases should help as a

remedy.

Thanks, Dirk
