Dear list, It seems that S4 methods defined for an S3 'base' generic are not used in 'base' functions. This can be problematic when 'base' functions start with something like 'as.matrix'. ### START R code setClass("classA", contains = "matrix", representation(realData = "numeric")) setMethod("as.matrix",

Dear list, It seems that a package (pkgB) using another package (pkgA) with S4 generics formed by taking existing functions (for example 'plot') must not import the existing functions ('plot') in its namespace to avoid the warning "replacing previous import: plot". Suppose we use the simple 'import' directive in the name space of pkgB. pkgA and pkgB files would

Yes. That's the version I've been discussing that has non-zero exit status. That situation is why CRAN retired the prob package. It's possible you installed that library earlier in development and it's been "carried" along. It no longer installs, now. The problems with all of this seem to have started this month according to the conversations. However, no one has

The issue is fAsianOptions. Is there a version that works with the latest version of R? If not, which version of it works with which version of R and where can it be found? I tried several at the archive already. Alternatively, is there another package that behaves similarly to prob?

Yes, that is exactly what I was doing two days ago. Warning in install.packages : installation of package ?fAsianOptions_3010.79.tar.gz? had non-zero exit status Which is what a reading of the explanation for why "prob" was retired leads one to expect. Do you have some other suggestion about how to get it to work? I notice you're not using Windows which might have a relationship

Dear all, While debugging a function I realized that sort(c(" 1", " 2", "10")) do not give the same result on Windows and Linux. This is actually not surprising because white spaces are not handle in the same manner on these two platforms. But I was wondering if this behavior is also desired in R. regards, Yohan Chalabi

Hi room, There seems to be a problem with the Windows building machines of R-Forge. All our packages with Fortran source code cannot be compiled for Windows. The error in the log file is make[3]: gfortran: Command not found It seems that gfortran is not installed. Is there any plan to fix this or am I doing something wrong on R-Forge? thanks in advance for your advises. regards, Yohan --

Thanks. I found that, and installed it and got the same message.

Dear all, In R-devel I have noticed the new approach for the "ts" class in the package "methods". the "structure" behaviour of "ts" is not always kept when one uses "ts" objects and objects of classes which extend the virtual class "structure". As a short example: ## this works fine setClass("foo", representation(header =

My question has two parts. The first is with regard to the frame or environment in which generic functions are defined in packages. It seems as though they are defined (i.e. exist as objects) in frame 1, even when defined in a package. The following is a short example: setClass("track",representation(x="numeric",y="numeric")) plotTrack <- function(x,y,...)

I've installed R-devel R Under development (unstable) (2014-07-09 r66111) Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin13.1.0 (64-bit) and am trying to resolve some problems that I am seeing with my SparseM package. In prior versions I explicitly had: setGeneric("image", function(x, ...) standardGeneric("image")) and then used setMethod to define a method for the class matrix.csr but

A general goal for the next version of R is to make S4 and S3 play better together. As mentioned in a previous thread, one limitation has been that S3 generic functions, specifically the UseMethod() call, did not make use of S4 inheritance when dispatching on general S4 objects. This has been fixed in a version committed today (updated to rev 52267). The code change is not large, but it

Hello, I've been attempting to make a generic method that dispatches on the first argument, which can be either an S3 or an S4 class. This is as far as I've gotten. Any suggestions about what to try next ? library(aroma.affymetrix) library(GenomicRanges) setGeneric("analyse", function(x, y, ...) standardGeneric("analyse")) setMethodS3("analyse",

Hi, I'm having some trouble setting methods for the qr family of functions. I believe I have distilled my misunderstanding in the code snippet below: foo <- function(x, ...) UseMethod("foo") foo.default <- function(x) { } # foo setGeneric(name = "foo", useAsDefault = foo) setMethod("foo", signature(x="bar"), function(x, ...) { } )
