I am trying to get the creation of a shared library with `juliac.jl` and `dyn.load`ing that library in R working. I can load the shared library in Julia and `ccall`...

In a slack discussion a similar issue in the JuliaCall repository, https://github.com/JuliaInterop/JuliaCall/issues/238#issuecomment-2620093298, was referenced. So part of the problem is that an older version of libunwind.so.8 is being accessed because...

I have the feeling that trying to retroactively patch up environment variables after R has overridden them will lead to a "twisty maze of passages" from which there is no...

I have a proof-of-concept using `juliac` to create a shared library, `dyn.load()`'ing it from an `R` session and evaluating `Julia` code on `R` objects.  At present it is just using...

@simonbyrne, @randy3k Do you think it is feasible to extract the code that handles conversion from/to SEXPRECs into a separate package that is included by RCall.jl? The purpose would be...

My guess at which files should be in a package `RObjects.jl`, if such a package were to be created, is just the first 12 files included in `src/RCall.jl`. That is,...

I'm running into a wall here trying to implement the .Call interface in Julia. The basic problem is in calling C functions from libR in the Julia code. This runs...

I managed to get an example of the `.Call` interface from `R` working after reading the documentation for Julia's `ccall` function. (Pro tip: read the documentation.) The first argument to...

After some further tinkering I can produce a slightly more general version using `Rf_coerceVector` to coerce the arguments into numeric vectors if possible. The Julia code looks like ```julia Base.@ccallable...

@simonbyrne, @randy3k Any reaction to the idea of splitting off the object conversion code into a separate package (I have, in different posts in this thread, suggested the names RconversionBase.jl...
