The survival package uses a generalized cholesky decompostition throughout.? If A is a symmetric matrix A= LDL' where L is lower triangular with 1s on the diagonal, D is diagonal, and D[i,i] =0 if column i of A is redundant.? Being able to read the rank and dependencies directly off of D is very handy. The bdsmatrix package uses the same, but exposes it to the user as gchol and solve

I'm testing out a new version of coxme and R CMD check fails with "could not find function ranef" (or random.effects or fixef, or anything from nlme). The NAMESPACE file has the line below importFrom(nlme, ranef, random.effects, fixef, fixed.effects, VarCorr) and nlme is declared in the DESCRIPTION file as an import. I feel that I must be staring at some obvious (but

I've moved nlme from Depends to Imports in my coxme package. However, a few of the examples for lmekin use one of the data sets from nlme. This is on purpose, to show how the results are the same and how they differ. If I use data(nlme::ergoStool) the data is not found, data(nlme:::ergoStool) does no better. If I add importFrom(nlme, "ergoStool") the error message is that

I have a question about what to do in the following situation (please bear with the setup): Package A defines an S4 generic 'foo' and as well as S4 methods for 'foo' and has exportMethods("foo") in its NAMESPACE file. Package B defines another method for 'foo' for class "bar" and has importFrom(A, "foo") exportMethods("foo")

R version 2.9.0 running on Centos (Red Hat linux). I have a pair of packages coxme and bdsmatrix. The latter is installed in my local library (I don't have permission for global install at work.) That is, it is in the location pointed to in R_LIBS_USER. In R, the command library(bdsmatrix) works fine. Coxme depends on bdsmatrix, in fact uses some cross-calls to it's C routines, which

Dear R devels, let's say I have three packages "pkg1", "pkg2" and "pkg3" which all contain new S4 classes and methods. Where "pkg3" depends on "pkg2" and "pkg2" depends on "pkg1". Moreover, all three packages have namespaces. 1) I use ".onLoad <- function(lib, pkg) require(methods)". Do I also have to

I've recently updated the coxme package, which calls internal routines from the bdsmatrix package.? (It is in fact mentioned as an example of this in the Extensions manual.) The call connections are a blocks like this, one for each of the 9 called C routines. void bdsmatrix_prod4(int nrow,??? int nblock,?? int *bsize, ??????????????????? double *bmat, double *rmat, ??????????????????? int

Dear all, I am using "coxme" function in Kinship library to fit random treatment effect nested within centre. I got 3 treatments (0,1,2) and 3 centres. I used following commands, but got an error. > ugroup=paste(rep(1:3,each=3),rep(0:2,3),sep='/') > mat1=bdsmatrix(rep(c(1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1),3),blocksize=rep(3,3),dimnames=list(ugroup,ugroup)) >

I'm working on the next version of coxme, one step of which is converting the bdsmatrix library from Splus to R. Actually, it is a conversion from S4 methods as first described in the Green book to S4 methods as they currently exist. Mostly it's going ok, but not entirely. 1. The biggest issue is lack of documentation. The online help pages have not been a help; they keep saying

And remove the cast on the return value of R_GETCCallable. And check that your function is found before using it. #include <R.h> #include <Rinternals.h> #include <R_ext/Rdynload.h> void bdsmatrix_prod4(int nrow, int nblock, int *bsize, double *bmat, double *rmat, int nfrail, double *y) { DL_FUNC fun = NULL; if (fun==NULL)

Dear list, I have another (again possibly boneheaded) puzzle about importing, again encapsulated in a nearly trivial package. (The package is posted at <http://www.math.mcmaster.ca/bolker/misc/coefsumtest_0.001.tar.gz>.) The package consists (only) of the following S3 method definitions: coeftab <- function(object, ...) UseMethod("coeftab",object) coeftab.default <-

Hello everybody, I have a problem with accessing class attributes. I think it might be due to namespace access restrictions or something similar, but I'm unable to figure it out, maybe someone knows the trick how to do it ... I'm trying to extract some information from the summary object for a model fitted using the lmer function from the lme4 package: smry <- summary(lmer(foo

The package coxme depends heavily on bdsmatrix, to the point of needing access to some of its C calls. The kinship package (in progress) uses the R level functions in bdsmatrix, but not the C calls. That is, I don't want to always export the symbols. For testing I can use an explicit dyn.load('somepath/bsdmatrix.so', local=F). How do I incorporate such a dependency in the

Hi, R experts I am currently using lmekin() function in coxme package to fit a mixed effect model for family based genetic data. How can I extract the p value from a lmekin object? When I print the object in R console, I can see the p value and Z value are just over there. But I can not extract them by the coef() function. kinfit$coefficient$fixed (kinfit is the name of the lmekin object)

The coxme package has a ranef() method, as does lme4. I'm having trouble getting them to play together, as shown below. (The particular model in the example isn't defensible, but uses a standard data set.) The problem is that most of the time only one of lme4 or coxme will be loaded, so each needs to define the basic ranef function as well as a method for it. But when loaded together

I've converted the bdsmatrix package (used by coxme) to the newer style of S4, and uploaded it. It is in the pkg directory of survival, on r-forge. I'm stuck on something that is almost certainly a namespace issue. I've borrowed liberally from Matrix (a big help) and read the documentation, and just upgraded to 2.8.1 - but still stuck. All the tests work when I run them "by

I have encountered an issue which I have been unable to resolve, involving an S3 generic (print) being declared S4 generic in a package, and the method being exported. This all works fine - the problem occurs when I try to import the method to another package. Here is the bit that works fine. ------------- #the .r file for package bar

In > R.version.string [1] "R Under development (unstable) (2011-12-15 r57901)" section 1.6.6 of 'Writing R Extensions' says Note that exporting methods on a generic in the namespace will also export the generic, and exporting a generic in the namespace will also export its methods. and Note that importMethodsFrom will also import any generics defined in
