compile_dll

Compile a .dll/.so from source.

Description

compile_dll performs a fake R CMD install so code that works here should work with a regular install (and vice versa). During compilation, debug flags are set with compiler_flags(TRUE).

Usage

compile_dll(
  path = ".",
  force = FALSE,
  compile_attributes = pkg_links_to_cpp11(path) || pkg_links_to_rcpp(path),
  register_routines = FALSE,
  quiet = FALSE,
  debug = TRUE
)

Arguments

`path`	Path to a package, or within a package.
`force`	If `TRUE`, for compilation even if `needs_compile()` is `FALSE`.
`compile_attributes`	if `TRUE` and the package uses Rcpp, call `Rcpp::compileAttributes()` before building the package. It is ignored if package does not need compilation.
`register_routines`	if `TRUE` and the package does not use Rcpp, call register routines with `tools::package_native_routine_registration_skeleton()` before building the package. It is ignored if package does not need compilation.
`quiet`	if `TRUE` suppresses output from this function.
`debug`	If `TRUE`, and if no user Makevars is found, then the build runs without optimisation (`-O0`) and with debug symbols (`-g`). See `compiler_flags()` for details. If you have a user Makevars (e.g., `~/.R/Makevars`) then this argument is ignored.

Details

Invisibly returns the names of the DLL.

Note

If this is used to compile code that uses Rcpp, you will need to add the following line to your Makevars file so that it knows where to find the Rcpp headers: PKG_CPPFLAGS=$(R_HOME)/bin/Rscript -e 'Rcpp:::CxxFlags()'“
