[Rd] Embeding R

[Bengoechea Bartolomé Enrique (SIES 73)]

Hi,

You may find the biocep-R project very useful, it embeds R into Java using JRI. And it goes much further than that, providing an impressive framework from which you can start with a lot of work already done. It's open source, so you can also just have a look at the code for inspiration:

http://biocep-distrib.r-forge.r-project.org/

It hasn't been released yet (no documentation) but it's really worth exploring.

Best,

Enrique

Hi,

I'm planning to embed R into an application, with the following context:

- This application is written in Java (and managed with maven). I plan  
accessing R using JRI.
- This application must be installable on several plateform (linux, mac  
os, windows).
- The R engine must embed library, some of them having native code in C or  
Fortran.

Does this sound reasonable? I would be very grateful to everyone providing  
links, references, feedback or advice on this question.

Best regards,
Sylvain
