how to include dll library with makefile, when using rcpp/rinside package

Question

I am using R with Rinside/Rcpp package. I was able to generate .exe/.o/.dll files (A) from come C++ code I wrote based on Rinside package.

However, later I found I would like to use A.dll as library for my other function. But I cannot figure out a way to do that. Any hints? Or any doc out there that I can refer to?

Thanks

RInside comes with four directories filled with examples, and three of those use, respectively

• MPI for parallel computing
• Qt for GUI apps
• Wt for Web apps

and each has a working Makefile showing you exactly how to set up linking with an external library, besides the R, Rcpp and RInside libraries already used.
