TMB (version 1.7.4)

compile: Compile a C++ template to DLL suitable for MakeADFun.

Description

Compile a C++ template into a shared object file. OpenMP flag is set if the template is detected to be parallel.

Usage

compile(file, flags = "", safebounds = TRUE, safeunload = TRUE, openmp = isParallelTemplate(file[1]), libtmb = TRUE, libinit = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

file

C++ file.

flags

Character with compile flags.

safebounds

Turn on preprocessor flag for bound checking?

safeunload

Turn on preprocessor flag for safe DLL unloading?

openmp

Turn on openmp flag? Auto detected for parallel templates.

libtmb

Use precompiled TMB library if available (to speed up compilation)?

libinit

Turn on preprocessor flag to register native routines?

...

Passed as Makeconf variables.

Details

TMB relies on R's built in functionality to create shared libraries independent of the platform. A template is compiled by compile("template.cpp"), which will call R's makefile with appropriate preprocessor flags. Compiler and compiler flags can be stored in a configuration file. In order of precedence either via the file pointed at by R_MAKEVARS_USER or the file ~/.R/Makevars if it exists. Additional configuration variables can be set with the flags and ... arguments, which will override any previous selections.
