|
|
4 \description{
|
|
5 The demos of the \pkg{rdyncall} package (see \code{demo(package="rdyncall")})
|
|
6 use shared libraries such as SDL, OpenGL and Expat via \code{\link{dynport}}s -
|
|
7 a dynamic binding approach which requires, that prebuilt binary shared library
|
|
8 files are already installed.
|
|
9
|
|
10 Depending on the host system, some libraries are officially a part of the
|
|
11 OS or Distribution, some others need to be installed to get the demos running.
|
|
12
|
|
13 As of the current version of this package, the installation of additional
|
|
14 shared C libraries need to be done manually. It follows an overview of
|
|
15 the required libraries and installation notes for various operating-systems and distributions.

18 The following Libraries are used as 'run-time' pre-compiled binaries
|
|
19 for the particular target OS and Hardware platform.

20 Some notes on installation of additional run-time libraries
