[Rcpp-devel] Using Armadillo objects as arguments in calls to R

[Davor Cubranic]

Can anyone tell me about issues I have to look out for when dealing with Rcpp Functions and passing Armadillo objects as arguments? I'm getting "not compatible with INTSXP" and segfault errors when calling the following Rcpp equivalent of R's 'predict(loess(y~x, weights=w, span=span))'. The errors usually only manifest only after several dozen calls.

const vec predict(const vec& x, const vec& y,
			const vec& weights, const double span) {
  Function formula_fn("formula");
  Function loess_fn("loess");
  Function predict_fn("predict");

  List data = List::create(_["x"] = wrap(x),
			   _["y"] = wrap(y));
  NumericVector weights_r = wrap(weights);
  const NumericVector out_r = predict_fn(loess_fn(formula_fn("y~x"),
						  data,
						  weights_r,
						  Named("span") = span));
  const vec out = vec(out_r.begin(), out_r.size());
  return out;
}
