[Rd] C function, double problem

[Rui Barradas]

Hello,

The double in R and the double in C are the same type, with the same 
number of decimals (64 bits), so it's not because the numbers are too long.
Try calling .C("function", other parameters, result = double(quantity)).
Or maybe the error is in the C code, of which we know nothing about.
