Hello Richard,
Thanks for the tips.
I was aware of the R(D)COM. In the last public version, there is now splash
screen appearing which is kind of boring so I think I need to buy it or
something.
Anyway, I think the idea was to create a common CORE library that can be
used from C# and from R. So I think I'll have a look at RCPP which looks to
be the best solution.
Have you tried it already? Do you know any good tutorial for this package?
Thanks,
Jeremie
