library.dynam {base} | R Documentation |
Load the specified file of compiled code if it has not been loaded already.
library.dynam(chname, package = .packages(), lib.loc = .lib.loc)
chname |
a character string naming a shared library to load. |
package |
a character vector with the names of packages to search through. |
lib.loc |
a character vector describing the location of R library trees to search through. |
This is designed to be used inside a
package rather than at the command line, and should really only be
used inside .First.lib()
. The system-specific extension
for shared libraries
(`.dd' on Windows)
should not be added.
The .Dyn.libs
vector with the names of packages
which have used library.dynam(..)
in the current R session.
It is returned as invisible
, unless the chname
argument is missing.
Users should never set .Dyn.libs
directly.
