similar to: R.oo package: do setMethodS3 work upon construction

If someone is able, can you tell me if there is a better way to do this? More specifically, do I have to rewrite all of the data members stuff and extend stuff of parent class in the child class? See below. Thanks in advance! Example 1: setConstructorS3("ClassA", function(A,x) { if(missing(A))A=15; if(missing(x))x=NA; extend(Object(), "ClassA", .size = A, .x=x

Hello, I'd like to 'do work' on data members upon construction (i.e. without implementing it in a get method). Is this the best way to create data member 'z' upon construction? I'm thinking if .z=paste(x,y) below gets more complex I'll run into issues. setConstructorS3("MyClass", function(x=NA,y=NA,...) { this <- extend(Object(), "MyClass",

Hi to all members, i have a question about class inheritance and methods using R.oo package: I have the following code and it doesn't work, guess i'm doing smth wrong and there is nothing in the help. library(R.oo) setConstructorS3("ClassA", function(A=15) { extend(Object(), "ClassA", .size = A ); }) setMethodS3("print", "ClassA",

Hi R-community, I'm very busy with a software project which I would like to development completely with R.oo. Many of the object oriented aspects that I already know from Java development seems to be in place with this library. But...there is something that I'm really missing... *the super method call* Just a little example that shall demonstrate what I mean: Image we have the following

Hello, How do I inherit two classes using the R.oo package. Below is kind of a silly example, but I am trying to create class PerDog from classes Dog and Person. Error at bottom. I've tried a few other ways of using extend(), but nothing seems to get me what I want. Example: setConstructorS3("Person", function(age=NA) { this = extend(Object(), "Person", .age=age )

I thought I would post an example of using R.oo with inheritance and pass by reference for future searches. With PerMore I am inheriting Person. Then I am changing an object data memeber of an object of PerMore class using pass by reference ('mimiced' by R.oo) in an object of AgeMultiplier. I change a data member in the child class and the parent class for demonstration purposes. This is

Hello, Using the R.oo package, how do I throw an error if a field is not present when the user of the class creates the object? Using the example in the R.oo package: setConstructorS3("Person", function(name, age) { if (missing(name)) name <- NA; if (missing(age)) age <- NA; extend(Object(), "Person", .name=name, .age=age ) }) [rest of class methods

Dear R.oo package users, while testing some functionality of the R.oo, I found that during the first construction of a object from a class, the constructor is twice called, but only one object is finalized. In all subsequent creation processes, the constructor is (expectedly) called once. Here some example code: library(R.oo) setConstructorS3("Test_class",function(val) {

I would like to use R.oo and tcltk to implement a Turtle World. I have encountered many problems because: 1) I am not sure how to implement static fields with R.oo 2) I am not sure how to implement a constructor that would call a function only for the first instance of a class (i.e., to initialize value of static fields only once) 3) I am not sure how to remove/delete cleanly existing

Hi Henrik, I'm sorry to be bothering you, but there is something that I have been stuck with for a while now. I am trying to create a class like : setConstructorS3("MyPTCM",function(tokenslist=0) { extend(Object(), "MyPTCM", .gamma = 0.0, .rho = 0.0, .phi = 0.0, .tokenslist = tokenslist, .uniquetokens = unique(tokenslist),

Hi, I've got a long-running project whose data fits nicely into data.frame objects in R. As I accumulate more and more functions, I decided to switch to an OO approach so I can organize things better. Looking around at the various approaches to OO R, I came across R.oo, which seems nice. Where I'm currently stuck is getting my objects to be mutable. For example, in the following toy

Can someone show me how to modify one (R.oo) class's object inside another (R.oo) class's method? Is that possible with the R.oo package? A quick example or reference to an example would be outstanding... Thanks, Ben [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi! I'm trying to learn about object oriented R, as it seems like it would be very useful. I'm going over an example from the documentation, and I'm very confused: http://www1.maths.lth.se/help/R/R.oo/ [assume you've called library (R.oo)] setConstructorS3("SavingsAccount", function(balance=0) { if (!is.numeric(balance) && length(balance) != 1)

This is a simple R.oo question but I, thankfully, hope that someone would explain it to me so I would better understand this work frame. I create this class: setConstructorS3("MyExample", function(param=0) { print(paste("called with param=", param)) extend(Object(), "MyExample", .param = param ); }) >From what is printed out, who made the second call to

Hello R experts I am googling and reading around, however, I can't get it working (perhaps because I do not understand much C, however, I'll give it a try). I am trying to include C++ code into an R routine, where the C++ code looks: #include <iostream> using namespace std; void foo (double* x, double* y, double* out) { out[0] = x[0] + y[0]; } Back in R, the command R CMD

Hi all, I'm trying to do some object-oriented programming in R using the R.oo package. Right from the start I encountered a strange (at least for me) problem. I define a new class/constructor based on the R.oo documentation. However the first attempt to create an object fails: === Code: === library(R.oo); setConstructorS3("MyClass",function(param) { print(param);

How can I define a static member of a class? not a static method, rather a static field that would be accessed by all instances of the class.

Hi R version 2.4.0 alpha (2006-09-06 r39158) MacOSX 10.4.7 There was a thread some time ago as to whether the structure created by package.skeleton() would pass R CMD check. I have an example where package.skeleton() gives an R file that gives an error when sourced. If I type setClass("brob", representation = representation

I got the following warnings when I install R.oo. Are these warnings normal? Should I reinstall the package as mentioned in the warnings? How to reinstall? The sessionInfo() is at the end. > install.packages("R.oo", dependencies=T) Warning in install.packages("R.oo", dependencies = T) : argument 'lib' is missing: using '/utility/R' also installing the

I feel tedious when I define a S4 class and the methods. For each method, I have to call both setMethod and setGeneric (or both setReplaceMethod and setGeneric). I would like a more compact grammar so that I can reduce the key strokes. I'm wondering if there is a better way available. setClass( Class='A', representation=representation( x='numeric' )
