I'm looking for a library in c++ which I compile with the Borland compiler bcc32. Before I tried to take the benefits of RInside but unfortunately it's only working with gcc-compiler and can't be used in my programming environment, which is Embarcadero.

  1. Is it possible to use Rcpp with a bcc32 compiler?
  2. Are there compatible libraries on the market doing statistical calculations in c++?

I hope you can help me. Thanks.

Part 1: no. From the Rcpp FAQ:

1.3. What compiler can I use. On almost all platforms, the GNU Compiler Collection (or gcc, which is also the name of its C language compiler) has to be used along with the corresponding g++ compiler for the C++ language. ... The clang and clang++ compilers from the LLVM project can also be used ... The Intel icc family has also been used successfully as its output files can also be combined with those from gcc .

If it's not on that list, it's not supported.

Part 2: off topic for StackOverflow.

    Thanks, Ben, and to add: this isn't because we're meanies. We use and support all the tool-chains supported by R. Which does not include `bcc32`. So there. – Dirk Eddelbuettel Nov 08 '17 at 01:46
