Rcpp11 is a complete redesign of Rcpp, targetting C++11.

Rcpp11 needs a C++11 capable compiler, it is known to work with clang 3.3 and gcc 4.8 on OSX and ubuntu.

• This is trivial on OSX Mavericks if you have Xcode installed.

I have this on my ~/.R/Makevars file:

CC=clang
CXX=clang++
CXXFLAGS= -stdlib=libc++ -std=c++11 -O3
CFLAGS=-g -O3 -Wall -pipe

• I have tested Rcpp11 with gcc 4.8 on ubuntu, e.g. here is what I do on travis to install g++ 4.8

  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test -y
  sudo apt-get update -qq
  sudo apt-get install -qq g++-4.8

Then, you can install it using devtools::install_github:

devtools::install_github( "romainfrancois/Rcpp11" )
require( Rcpp11 )
evalCpp( "2LL" )
