Hi! Concerning different behaviour between 1.9.1 patched and: R : Copyright 2004, The R Foundation for Statistical Computing Version 2.0.0 Under development (unstable) (2004-09-06), ISBN 3-900051-07-0 Subtitle: as(x,"vector"); x is of class "Massvector"; never enters setAs("Massvector","vector"... The same code: as(mvl[[1]],"vector") causes

Hi, It doesn't seem that the dispatching algo is finding my coerce method under some circumstances. Let's say I have 2 classes, A and AA and that AA is just a direct extension of A with no additional slots: setClass("A", representation(ii="integer")) setClass("AA", contains="A") I can define a method for coercing my objects to an integer

By reading the documentation for _setIs_ I noted that for the same object three different names are used. 1) the name of the first argument in the functions coerce and replace in setIs must be _obj_ (see example section or) setIs("MVCa","list",coerce=function(obj){obj@list},replace=function(obj,value){obj@list<-value}) 2) At the same time in the usage section:

Hi! Old story again. I put it away for a while because there are always other thinks to do. But I cant deny that I still like to like to comment assignment functions. Under linux I get. Cannot handle Rd file names containing '<'. These are not legal file names on all R platforms. Please rename the following files and try again: man/[[<-.caliblist.Rd

(I am not sure if this is a bug or a request for a more understandable warning, or possible something obvious I should be posting on r-help.) I am trying to coerce an new class object to be a DBIConnection and it does not work the way I think it should: R version 2.5.1 (2007-06-27) ... > require("RMySQL") # or require("RSQLite") Loading required package: RMySQL Loading

Hi the list I am fighting with the twins setAs and setIs... Here are some questions and comments (comments to myself but that migth be wrong, it is why I am posting them) 1. Very surprising : using setIs define 'is', 'as<-' but not 'as' ??? 2. Using setAs define 'as', 'as<-' but not 'is'... What surprise me is that as<- can be define by

Hello, With R version 3.0.2 Patched (2013-10-30 r64123) I don't see warnings that I get in R Under development (unstable) (2013-11-03 r64145) The warnings are like : Undocumented S4 methods: generic '[' and siglist 'BayMethList,ANY,ANY' The function actually looks like : setMethod("[", "BayMethList", function(x, i) { # Code to subset object. }

Dear R-Devel subsriber, during the set-up of a package with a NAMESPACE I stumbled over the following warning during: R CMD check -l c:/R/package smem ## skipped output * checking for missing documentation entries ... WARNING Undocumented S4 methods: generic 'show' and siglist 'equation' All user-level objects in a package (including S4 classes and methods) ## skipped output

Dear colleagues, there is a behaviour with S4 (virtual) classes that I find very hard to understand: Depending on the position of setAs(), the tree of inheritance changes. This is my baseline example that defines the classes "grandma", "mother", "daughter" and a virtual class "mr_x". For a new instance if "daughter", "mr_x" is betweeen

Dear all, I am just writing the documentation file for S4 class 'QualTreeSet' and get the following warning with R CMD check: * checking for missing documentation entries ... WARNING Undocumented S4 methods: generic 'initialize' and siglist 'QualTreeSet' All user-level objects in a package (including S4 classes and methods) should have documentation entries. See the

Hi, Please consider the following trivial example. In the sample code I first define a class MVCa using composition. This class contains a slot of type list. Next I define an inheritance relation using the function setIs -> MVCa "is a" list. Then I define a function printlength which prints the list-length which is defined for the type "list". If I call this function

I ran into a problem recently trying to update a package which uses S4 methods using a recent beta of R. I think I can reproduce it with a simple example. I have package called `testpkg' in directory testpkg/. In the R/ subdirectory of testpkg/ I have a file called testpkg.R which contains the following two lines: setClass("testpkg", representation(pts = "list"))

I'm trying to resolve a small problem that has arisen from introducing a NAMESPACE for the package SparseM. Prior to the namespace I had a class "matrix.diag.csr" that consisted of diagonal sparse matrices. It was defined to have the same attributes as the matrix.csr class and setAs was used to define how to coerce integers and vectors into this form:

Hi list, I've got a class B that contains a slot obj of class A. I'd like to be able to call all the methods of class A directly on objects of class B as if I had called the method on slot obj. This without overloading all methods of class A to work on class B. I don't define B as an extension of A, because I want class B to also work with objects of classes that inherit from

Consider this: $ cat test.dat 1 a 2 b Now, we want to read the 2nd column as a factor and ignore the first (since it's just a sequential ID). We can't just put "factor" among the colClasses (would have been nice), so let's try this instead > setAs("character","factor",as.factor) Arguments in definition changed from (x) to (from) >

Something has changed in the S4 default for coercing. Am I now suppose to use setAs, or is there something else I should do to make this work: R version 2.7.0 (2008-04-22) .... > require("methods") > setClassUnion("OptionalPOSIXct", c("POSIXct", "NULL")) [1] "OptionalPOSIXct" > setClass("TSmetax",

Hello, am I using 'setIs' in the correct way in the subsequent (artifical) example? Do I have to specify explicit 'setAs' for 'list' and 'vector' or should this work automatically, since "getClass("List1")" states an explicit coerce also for these classes. I'm working with R 2.0.0 Patched (2004-10-06) on windows 2000. Thanks for your

This seemed too advanced for r-help and is related to the recent discussion of character vectors in dataframes. Following Brian Ripley's most excellent advice, we are moving to a world in which character vectors in dataframes are always of class AsIs. The cool way of doing this seemed to be the following: > cat(c("x", "y", "z"), file = "test.txt",

Hi, I am looking into a way to hook into the R coercion framework to allow me to convert table-like data stored within a COM object into a data.frame. Some of our COM objects have their own table-like data storage, and from R's point of view it's an object (EXTPTRSXP) decoarated with a sepcial symbol so we can easily identify it. COM_Table <- a_method_that_creates_the_object()
