Weird.

Why do we need this here, and not for any of the other C++ using packages on CRAN?

Short tip:  You can set it locally outside the package via something like this:

      edd at max:~$ grep ^CXX.*FLAGS .R/Makevars
      CXXFLAGS +=           -O3 -Wall -pipe -Wno-unused 
      CXX1XFLAGS=-O3 -Wall -pipe -Wno-unused
      edd at max:~$ 

It will affect all your C++ builds for R. 
 
| If I find some time tomorrow I will try to dig into that a little more…

I would appreciate this.  We can add it easily via configure -- but I would
like to know why we need it.

|         Hi Ben,
| 
|         Do you have any quick guide for building and installing RQuantLib on

|             Hi,
| 
|             first post, bear with me. 
| 
|             On this matter, it works fine on 10.9.x. RStudio seems to have
|             fixed on their end. Since I have recently rebuilt both QuantLib and
|             RQuantLib several times on stable and development sources on my
|             10.9.x environment just running RQuantLib has never been an issue.
| 
|             As a workaround, perhaps you could try to create a script to launch
|             through the terminal so that the environment variables are loaded
|             properly?

|                 So quantlib-config is not found.
| 
|                 I don't own (or access) an OS X machine but even I noticed all
|                 these hoopla
|                 over 10.10 not setting PATH -- that could be the culprit.
|                 Google for
|                 something like
| 
|                           RStudio "OS X" 10.10 PATH
| 
|                 and you just get pointers.  One trick appears to be to launch
|                 RStudio from
|                 the term.app.
