R package with both fortran and c++ (Rcpp) code

Question

I am packing a bunch of my functions into an R package. My problem is that I have both .f90 code and c++ (through Rcpp) which I want to be compiled separately in two different shared libraries, also because they need different includes/link options.

I found only the package "grDevices" which has 2 shared libraries, and there the problem is solved using subdirectories with adapted Makefiles, whose syntax is however voodoo for me. Are there other examples out there?

Can I achieve what I want without expliciting everything in a Makefile, for example using just the Makevars file? Any hint appreciated. Cheers, domanov

I would start with a src/Makevars setting the respective variables for Fortran and C++:

PKG_CXXFLAGS
PKG_FLAGS
PKG_FCFLAGS

as well as

FLIBS
FCLIBS

See Section 1.2.1 "Using 'Makevars'" in Writing R Extensions for more.
