[Rcpp-devel] LLVM

[Dirk Eddelbuettel]

CCing Conrad even though I know he reads the list (and I fear he may have set
off for vacation in NZ). Also CCing Simon as usual when begging for OS X help :)

That is the very same issue we had with OS X development compilers before.
We even moved those arma::arma_version symbols around:

2011-04-25  Dirk Eddelbuettel  <edd at debian.org>

	* src/RcppArmadillo.cpp: Rewritten armadillo_version as to no longer
	require an instance of arma::arma_version, with Thanks! to Conrad

but as I recall that did not resolve the issue.  My memory is a little fuzzy,
but didn't this go away once you moved compilers?

The code bit it trivial:


extern "C" SEXP armadillo_version(SEXP single_){

    bool single = as<bool>( single_) ;

    if( single ){
	return wrap( 10000*arma::arma_version::major +
		     100*arma::arma_version::minor + 
		     arma::arma_version::patch ) ;
    }

    IntegerVector version = 
	IntegerVector::create(_["major"] = arma::arma_version::major,
			      _["minor"] = arma::arma_version::minor,
			      _["patch"] = arma::arma_version::patch);

   return version ;

}


and there is no reason I can see why this doesn't link.
