\title{
Evaluate a C++ Expression
}
\description{
Evaluates a C++ expression. This creates a C++ function using 
\code{\link{cppFunction}} and calls it to get the result. 
}
\usage{
evalCpp(code, depends = character(), includes = character(), 
        rebuild = FALSE, showOutput = verbose, 
        verbose = getOption("verbose"))
areMacrosDefined(names, depends = character(), includes = character(), 
        rebuild = FALSE, showOutput = verbose, 
        verbose = getOption("verbose"))
}
\arguments{
  \item{code}{
C++ expression to evaluate
}
  \item{names}{
names of the macros we want to test
}
  \item{depends}{

}
\note{
    The result type of the C++ expression must be compatible with \code{Rcpp::wrap}.
