Rcpp: rmarkdown knit pdf failed due to Rcpp

[zhiruiwang]

When I knit a pdf using rmarkdown, it always return such error:

Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) :

Not an _Rcpp_ problem. Toolchain issue. Does:

Rcpp::evalCpp("1+1")

give the correct answer?

[eddelbuettel]

That's peculiar because @coatless and I have been working A LOT on rmarkdown use lately. And he uses macOS. And he just beat me...

Library not loaded: /usr/local/clang4/lib/libc++abi.dylib

You probably just have a hash of pre-built and locally-built components. "If it breaks, rebuild."

[zhiruiwang]

It seems like a problem of clang. How could I fix it?

You can get the necessary compiler here:

@eddelbuettel please close the ticket.

@coatless it works. Thank you!
