[R] How can I pass a R matrix as parameter to C code?

[Austin, Matt]

You need to pass it as a vector and then you can convert to an array
structure in C.  Look at carray.c for one way to do this, there are others.
Browse the source code and see how different authors handle your problem.

Hello, 
   
  Is it possible to pass R matrix as a parameter to an internal C procedure?
  From the documentation I got the impression that only 1-dim vectors can be
passed. 
  Why the following wont work for me?
   
   
  > a<-matrix(1:15,3,5)
> .C("pr",as.integer(a))
   
  void pr(int **a){
  a[1][1]=100;
}
   
   
  Thanks,
  Johan
