问题
I'm trying to compile a Rcpp package that uses RcppArmadillo within RStudio. I am only trying to compile:
#include <RcppArmadillo.h>
// [[Rcpp::depends(RcppArmadillo)]]
using namespace Rcpp;
// Implementation of MASS' rmvrnorm()
// [[Rcpp::export]]
arma::mat rmvrnorm_arma2(int n, arma::vec mu, arma::mat sigma) {
int ncols = sigma.n_cols;
arma::mat Y = arma::randn(n, ncols);
return arma::repmat(mu, 1, n).t() + Y * arma::chol(sigma);
}
which is found here: http://gallery.rcpp.org/articles/simulate-multivariate-normal/
I have placed the file rmvrnorm_arma.cpp within the /src/ directory.
RStudio is providing the following errors:
==> Rcpp::compileAttributes()
Warning message: The following packages are referenced using Rcpp::depends attributes however are not listed in the Depends and LinkingTo fields of the package DESCRIPTION file: RcppArmadillo

I'm not sure why Rcpp / Rstudio is refusing to note the includes and dependency statement at the top of the cpp file that rmvrnorm_arma
If I try to load the .cpp using source I receive the following error on the FIRST attempt to load it:
Rcpp::sourceCpp('rmvrnorm_arma.cpp') Warning message: In normalizePath(path.expand(path), winslash, mustWork) :
path[1]="F:/Documents/BoxSync/Choice Project/R Scripts/Rcpp Scripts/RcppArmadillo MCMC/Choice38/src/../inst/include": The system cannot find the path specified
On the second attempt of loading it, the source is picked up.
Prior to starting to develop in rcpp package mode within Rstudio, I did not have any issue with sourceCpp().
回答1:
The [[Rcpp::depends(...)]] functionality is for sourceCpp() et al, for packages you should use Imports: and Depends: etc pp fields to set up a package.
I believe there is minor bug / nuisance with RStudio right now as you may need to swap fields in DESCRIPTION to get rid of the first warning. But it works otherwise.
Consider setting up a package with the function we provide: RcppArmadillo.package.skeleton() and start from there.
Edit: And the other approach, of course, would be to load any of the sixty-five CRAN packages using RcppArmadillo and building it inside RStudio to then compare their setup (basically: Depends/Imports and LinkingTo, along with correct NAMESPACE file) to what you currently have and so see what you are lacking.
