You will be well served by paying attention to existing documentation starting with the actual name of the project and repository. Despite your insistence, there is no capital C in Rcpp. R c p p. It would be polite if you could use the name we have been using for twenty years.

Now, your question is not very clear. Of course templates resolve at compile time. That is a major C++ innovation. Rcpp has the added challenge of operating on R types, namely SEXP which are (effectively) union types resolved at run time.

That challenge has been documented and discussed a great many times. Maybe you want to take a look? Old issues here, questions at StackOverflow, mailing list posts, Rcpp Gallery posts. The list goes on. What have you read already and what is your minimally complete verifiable example (ie an MCVE) ?

If you just want to shoot the breeze, the mailing list may be a better place.

Closing this for lack of follow-up or clarification.
