[R] Using R in C++

[Jörgen Wallerman]

I have read the "Writing R Extensions Guide", and got the impression it is
only possible to access some "basic" mathematical functions from R in C, not
including ks.test(). My question is if it is possible to go further than
those "basic" functions. I guess what I want to do is to execute an R
function within R but from C++, where all execution is started and
controlled from the C-end. For example, it is possible to run R from the
prompt with the function as an argument? How do I then get access to the
result? Is there a better way than that? Is there a C-interface for
ks.test() allowing it to be compiled and included in a C-application? Which
parts in the help am I missing?
