Armadillo Matrix 与Eigen MatriXd 相互赋值

For example:

#include <RcppArmadillo.h>
#include <RcppEigen.h>

// [[Rcpp::depends(RcppEigen)]]

// [[Rcpp::depends(RcppArmadillo)]]

// [[Rcpp::export]]
Eigen::MatrixXd example_cast_eigen(arma::mat arma_A) {

  Eigen::MatrixXd eigen_B = Eigen::Map<Eigen::MatrixXd>(arma_A.memptr(),
                                                        arma_A.n_rows,
                                                        arma_A.n_cols);

  return eigen_B;
}

// [[Rcpp::export]]
arma::mat example_cast_arma(Eigen::MatrixXd eigen_A) {

  arma::mat arma_B = arma::mat(eigen_A.data(), eigen_A.rows(), eigen_A.cols(),
                               false, false);

  return arma_B;
}

/***R
(x = matrix(1:4, ncol = 2))
example_cast_eigen(x)
example_cast_arma(x)
*/

Results:

(x = matrix(1:4, ncol = 2))
#      [,1] [,2]
# [1,]    1    3
# [2,]    2    4

example_cast_eigen(x)
#      [,1] [,2]
# [1,]    1    3
# [2,]    2    4

example_cast_arma(x)
#      [,1] [,2]
# [1,]    1    3
# [2,]    2    4

One quick remark: If you are using Eigen's Mapping function, then you should automatically have the change in the Armadillo matrix (and vice versa), e.g.

#include <RcppArmadillo.h>
#include <RcppEigen.h>

// [[Rcpp::depends(RcppEigen)]]

// [[Rcpp::depends(RcppArmadillo)]]

// [[Rcpp::export]]
void map_update(Eigen::MatrixXd eigen_A) {

  Rcpp::Rcout << "Eigen Matrix on Entry: " << std::endl << eigen_A << std::endl;

  arma::mat arma_B = arma::mat(eigen_A.data(), eigen_A.rows(), eigen_A.cols(),
                               false, false);

  arma_B(0, 0) = 10;
  arma_B(1, 1) = 20;

  Rcpp::Rcout << "Armadill Matrix after modification: " << std::endl << arma_B << std::endl;

  Rcpp::Rcout << "Eigen Matrix after modification: " << std::endl << eigen_A << std::endl;
}

Run:

map_update(x)

Output:

Eigen Matrix on Entry: 
1 3
2 4

Armadill Matrix after modification: 
   10.0000    3.0000
    2.0000   20.0000

Eigen Matrix after modification: 
10  3
 2 20
