I want to construct a data frame in an Rcpp function, but when I get it, it doesn't really look like a data frame. I've tried pushing vectors etc. but it leads to the same thing. Consider:
RcppExport SEXP makeDataFrame(SEXP in) {
Rcpp::DataFrame dfin(in);
Rcpp::DataFrame dfout;
for (int i=0;i<dfin.length();i++) {
dfout.push_back(dfin(i));
}
return dfout;
}
in R:
> .Call("makeDataFrame",mtcars,"myPkg")

It seems Rcpp can return a proper data.frame, provided you supply the names explicitely. I'm not sure how to adapt this to your example with arbitrary names
mkdf <- '
Rcpp::DataFrame dfin(input);
Rcpp::DataFrame dfout;
for (int i=0;i<dfin.length();i++) {
dfout.push_back(dfin(i));
}
return Rcpp::DataFrame::create( Named("x")= dfout(1), Named("y") = dfout(2));
'
library(inline)
test <- cxxfunction( signature(input="data.frame"),
mkdf, plugin="Rcpp")
test(input=head(iris))
