Really, you can't query the filename of the active device in R. I
exported all the parameters to the R code block to R variables so I
can use them in R.

See example.

Here's a non-functional example that I hope can illustrate the point:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
* HEading
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
#+BEGIN_SRC R :file whatever.png :width 300 :height 200 :exports none
a = c(1,2,3,4)
plot(a)
dev.copy(pdf,gsub(".png",".pdf",org_babel_filename))
#+END_SRC
#+results:
[[file:whatever.png]]
#+LATEX \\include[whatever.pdf]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The idea is I want to be able to see the inline PNG image of my graph
while writing, and when I export I'll point the latex exporter to the
PDF. This provides a vector format for Latex, instead of a low
resolution bitmap. Yes you can use PDF's as includes, and they look
great because they are a vector format.
Does that help?
I'm having issues with the R dev.copy, but that's a separate issue.
Thanks.
