• Auto-injecting bare mimimum required headers if not present. i.e. R.h and Rinternals.h
• Raise warning when there doesn't appear to be any .Call()-compatible functions in the code

• Be stricter about rejecting function signatures which aren't compatible with .Call() when auto-generating wrappers.

• Return a more useful object which contains wrapper functions for all the C functions which adhere to .Call() syntax
• Added verbose flag to control whether output from the compiler is echoed to the terminal. Default: FALSE

• Remove directory where dll was compiled when unloading the dll.

• bugfix for directory handling

• Explicitly set a finalizer on the returned reference to the DLL such that the library will be unloaded when this returned variable gets garbage collected.
  • User must now keep a reference to the returned object to ensure the C functions remain available.
  • Automatically unloading the library means that
    1. it will not pollute the namespace
    2. Newer versions of the compiled function are not masked by prior compiled versions.
• Switch to use Makevars file for setting CPPFLAGS as Windows doesn't understant R CMD COMPILE
