Hi the list,
There is two way to declare a new object with inheritence : one can do
setMethod("myClass",
  representation("fatherClass",x="numeric")
  ....
or
setMethod("myClass",
  representation(x="numeric"),
  containt="fatherClass"
  ....
Is there any difference ? What is the usal way ?
Christophe
setClass("myClass",
   representation(x="numeric"),
   contains="fartherClass")
seems more logical to me in sense of syntax (pay attention to setClass 
instead of setMethod and contains instead of containt), but both work 
apparently.

Sorry, I make a mistake... I meant :
what the difference between
setClass("myClass",
   representation("fatherClass",x="numeric")
   ....
or
setClass("myClass",
   representation(x="numeric"),
   contains="fatherClass"
   ....
