Ignacio,
Maybe this is something else to try.
Write back and explain if this works or not.

Parallel Programming in Fortran 95 using OpenMP
OMP_NUM_THREADS
This environment variable specifies the number of threads to be used during execution of
the parallel regions

understanding is that this should also work on windows, is that correct?*
If so, what should I do? differently?

To get it to work on Linux, I modified my R script as follows:

#' OpenMP Hello World
#'
#' @param nthreads The number of threads that you want to use
#' @example
#' hello(nthreads=2)
#' @export
#' @useDynLib helloOpenMP, .registration = TRUE

hello <- function(nthreads=4) {
   (OpenMPController::omp_set_num_threads(nthreads))
  .Fortran("hello")
  return('Each thread will say hi to you!')
}

> hello(nthreads = 2) Hello from           0
 Hello from           1
[1] "Each thread will say hi to you!"




you!" without the Hello from X

Thanks for your help,

Ignacio
