Hello, We pushed the initial release of RcppGSL to CRAN this morning. The package extends Rcpp in the direction of the GNU Scientific Library (GSL). The package contains C++ classes (in the RcppGSL namespace) that act as smart pointers to associated GSL data structure, so for example RcppGSL::vector<double> is a smart pointer to gsl_vector. This allows us to plug in various constructors and operators to shadow some of the heavy syntax that C imposes to GSL. The package contains an 11 pages vignette that explains the features in details, with examples. The vignette also details how to actually use RcppGSL, either in another package (best) or at the R prompt with inline. We hope this package will be helpful to developers of CRAN packages that use the GSL. Romain and Dirk
