similar to: Help with R.oo

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

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

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",

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",

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

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);

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),

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) {

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 )

Hi, how are you? My name is Irucka Embry and I would like assistance on properly subsetting some data obtained from a .csv file. > file <-"info_n.csv" > INFO<- getMetaDataFromFile(file) INFO is 92 observations of 14 variables > INFO<- subset(INFO,site.no==02169570) INFO is 0 observations of 14 variables When the site.no is used I should have 1 observation of 14

Hello (Heinrich), I did not know I could do this. It doesn't seem to be documented anywhere. Thought this would be helpful to the fraction of the community using package R.oo. Note the call of a setMethodS3 method, xOne, in the setConstructorS3. This is extremely useful if xOne (in this case) is a very complex method (that you always want to be called every time you create a new object). If I

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

Hi all, I have attached the function file (revisedfunction) and the list of station IDs (StationIDs) in .pdf format. I have written a function to perform various operations on the station IDs in two groups. The first 6 station IDs require one less step than the remaining 68 station IDs. The file referenced at the beginning of the function is the file containing the StationIDs. > file =

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 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

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, I have the following function: getDataFromDVFileCustom <- function (file, hasHeader = TRUE, separator = "\t") { DVdatatmp <- as.matrix(read.table(file, sep = "\t", fill = TRUE, comment.char = "#", as.is = TRUE, stringsAsFactors = FALSE, na.strings = "NA")) DVdatatmper <- as.matrix(DVdatatmp[ , c("datetime",

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.

Has anyone figured out how to create a destructor in R.oo? How I'd like to use it: I have an object which opens a connection thru RODBC (held as a private member) It would be nice if the connection closes automatically (inside the destructor) when an object gets gc()'ed. Thanks in advance. Regards, Ken BTW, a >BIG< thanks to Henrik Bengtsson for creating the R.oo package! Lucky

I develop quite a bit of R code that I tend to distribute, or let other people embed in their software. One of the things I'd really like to do is find a way to load an R library I've developed, and call one function with arguments. Currently, I achieve that by building a separate R client file, which reads in the command line arguments, loads the library, and calls the main
