As Tradestation imposes Windows, also consider the two (D)Com servers.

Otherwise, I have had luck with C/C++ interfaces to R but I haven't tried the
embedding route you are heading to.  For C++, I can *really* recommend
Dominick's RcppTemplate. 

Another option is Simon's Rserve -- that avoids all linking issues as
everything is done over tcp/ip, either on the same box or across the network.

Keep us (or maybe r-devel) posted ...

Good luck, Dirk
