Yes, Rcpp.h has be to included. And only Rcpp.h. It takes care of the rest.

Yes.

We include fairly copious documentation in Rcpp itself, see the directory
examples for 

	 RcppInline			(initial) inline examples    
	 FastLM				a comparison of 'fast' lm()  
	 ConvolveBenchmarks		a benchmarking study
	 functionCallback		how to call C++ from R

Moreover, we have an entire package called RcppExamples

We include a fairly detailed vignette in the package.

Lastly, if you check the CRAN page for the Rcpp paackage, you get a list of
eleven packages using Rcpp.  By looking at these eleven as reference
implementations, you may find a 'best practice' better to adopt.

Hope this helps.
