Test the Embeddable R Library

This a collection of tests for verifying that using R as a library within another application (i.e. embedded R) works for this installation. This is only relevant if one has configured R with the --enable-R-shlib argument for the top-level configure. Currently, this only works for Unix, and not the Mac or Windows.

Test Applications

Rtest Just prints the vector c(1, 2, ..., 10) Rplot Creates a basic plot of c(1,2,..., 10) in the default device and then quits immediately. Rpostscript Produces a plot of 1:100 using the Postscript graphics device. This creates a file named Rplots.ps Rerror Reads a function definition from an external file (code.R) and calls it which in turn generates an "error" via stop(). The local error handler defined for this application catches this error and recovers. RNamedCall Calls a function with some named arguments. RParseEval Parses a string and evaluates the resulting expression(s). Rpackage Invokes example() for functions in ctest and mva to ensure that packages can be loaded into R in an embedded context. These packages must be linked against libR.so. embeddedRCall.c Collection of routines used in the different tests. Other Tests This has been tested in many other situations including the some of the Omegahat packages: As a procedural language within Postsgres. See R in Postgres SJava SNetscape SXalan SXalan RSPython RSPerl These can be used as example code for embedding R within other applications.: Just prints the vector c(1, 2, ..., 10)
