[Rcpp-devel] R Memory Management and RInside

[gershon bialer]

Hi,

I'm trying to use RInside, but I get the seg fault show below. Does
R's memory management somehow interfere with   the C++ standard
library memory management? What could be causing this?

Program received signal EXC_BAD_ACCESS, Could not access memory.
Reason: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at address: 0x0000000000000018
