[Rcpp-devel] is std::sort function broken??

[Noah Silverman]

Hi,

I have a vector of doubles that I want to sort.

Using Rcpp and inline.  When attempting to create the function,  I receive an error.  Does anybody have any suggestions?

===================
Test <- cxxfunction(
	signature(),
	plugin="Rcpp", includes="#include <ctime>, #include <time.h>, #include <algorithm>. #include <vector>",
	body="
		std::vector<double> data;
		
		for(int i=0; i != 20; i++){
			data.push_back(i);
		}
		std::sort(data.front(), data.back());
		return Rcpp::wrap(data);
	"
)
