Error in dyn.load(dllfile) — problem with building a package linking to Rcpp

问题

My package will not install, either on my machine or on travis-ci.org. The only update from the version on CRAN is that I added a vignette. I have been following the examples of Rcpp - package and R-packages; compiled code.

The error is related to these prior questions but not a duplicate.

Q40922814 -- problem here was the use of both C and C++ code. I only use C++ code
Q36952571 -- I'm on Mac OS, so no access to ldconfig, though perhaps my problem is related.

Error:

code

My package: imputeMulti

I have the following C++ files in src/

# utilities_rcpp.cpp
#include <Rcpp.h>
using namespace Rcpp;

<two minor functions>

# count_compare.cpp
#include <Rcpp.h>
using namespace Rcpp;

<one minor function>

I also have

# imputeMulti-package.R
## usethis namespace: start
#' @importFrom Rcpp sourceCpp, evalCpp
## usethis namespace: end
NULL

#' @useDynLib imputeMulti

.onUnload <- function (libpath) {
  library.dynam.unload('imputeMulti', libpath)
}

My best guess is that the error is related to Q36952571, but I am unsure how to resolve. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

回答1:

I think, based on a quick poke, that your package is borked.

The install step fails on

** testing if installed package can be loaded from temporary location

I.e. we miss a symbol imputeMulti_supDistC which you call, and you are doing that wrong. With Rcpp and its (awesome) compileAttributes() you do not invoke .Call() as you did here. You call a provide R wrapper.

You made that mistake twice, and this fixed it:

Make those simplifications, run compileAttributes() to update the two RcppExports files, and be happy.
