I'm trying to call R from c++ on linux via RInside, I compiled R-2.15.1 from source with gcc version 4.5.3 (Debian 4.5.3-1) , I don't have sudo rights to use apt-get install. I'm using OpenBlas and a system optimized lapack. The blas and lapack libraries work fine for many scalapack applications
I installed R with
./configure --with-blas="-I/lib/OpenBLAS-v0.2.3-0/xianyi-OpenBLAS-48f075c/install/include -L/lib/OpenBLAS-v0.2.3-0/xianyi-OpenBLAS-48f075c/install/lib -lopenblas -lgfortran" --with-lapack="/usr/lib/liblapack.so -lgfortran" --enable-BLAS-shlib=yes --enable-R-shlib --enable-R-static-lib --prefix= .
which installed and runs fine,I ran make check with no errors, also all the packages (Rcpp and RInside) installed fine..
however when i use the given RInside makefile
, the basic hello world example from /standard/rinside_sample0.cpp
compiles! but it does not run and i get the following error
./rinside_sample0: error while loading shared libraries: libRblas.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
the file libRblas.so
exists and is in the R/lib
folder,
when i try to link it manually with the g++ command the make file creates or linking as follows i get a segmentation fault
/R/lib/libRblas.so ./hello_world
Segmentation fault
EDIT: heres how the example make file tries to compile an example, (which compiles fine) but won't run with the above missing libRblas.so
error

I fixed the problem by adding the R install path lib ../R/lib:
to the beginning of LD_LIBRARY_PATH
after that all the examples compiled and run fine
