Hi list, Calling setGeneric()/setMethod() from within the .onLoad() hook of MyPkg package produces the following error: > gctorture(TRUE) > library(MyPkg) .onLoad(): ok1 .onLoad(): ok2 Error : protect(): protection stack overflow Error : .onLoad failed in 'loadNamespace' for 'MyPkg' Error: package/namespace load failed for 'MyPkg' This is with

Hi list, This looks similar to the problem reported here https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2006-April/037199.html by Henrik Bengtsson a long time ago. It is very sporadic and non-reproducible. Henrik, do you remember if your code was using reg.finalizer()? I tend to suspect it but I'm not sure. I've been hunting this bug for months but today, and we the help of other Bioconductor

Hi, x <- c(rep(1800000003L, 10000000), -rep(1200000002L, 15000000)) This is correct: > sum(as.double(x)) [1] 0 This is not: > sum(x) [1] 4996000 Returning NA (with a warning) would also be acceptable for the latter. That would make it consistent with cumsum(x): > cumsum(x)[length(x)] [1] NA Warning message: Integer overflow in 'cumsum'; use

Hi, > class(as(1:4, "numeric")) [1] "integer" Surprising but an explanation could be that an integer vector being a particular case of numeric vector, this coercion has nothing to do because 1:4 is already numeric. And indeed: > is.numeric(1:4) [1] TRUE > is.numeric(as(1:4, "numeric")) [1] TRUE However, 'as(1:4,

Here is an example: setGeneric("foo", function(x, y) standardGeneric("foo")) setMethod("foo", c("numeric", "ANY"), function(x, y) cat("I'm the foo#numeric#ANY method\n") ) Dispatch works as expected but selectMethod() fails to find the method: > foo(1, TRUE) I'm the foo#numeric#ANY method >

Hi, I just realized that a named empty list is displayed the same way as an empty list: > list(aa=2:5)[0] list() > list() list() For empty atomic vectors, the print method makes the difference: > c(aa=3L)[0] named integer(0) > integer(0) integer(0) Maybe lists could do that too?

Hi, This was quite unexpected: setGeneric("foo", function(x) standardGeneric("foo")) setMethod("foo", "vector", identity) foo(matrix(1:12, ncol=3)) # [1] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 foo(array(1:24, 4:2)) # [1] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 If I define a method for array objects,

Hi Michael, Thanks for looking into this. I suspect that truncation of ANY suffixes from method signatures is also the culprit behind the sudden breakage of aliases of the form \alias{foo,numeric-method} when a method without the ANY suffix in its signature gets added to the ecosystem. See my post about this to the Bioc-devel mailing list a couple of months ago:

I am trying, without success, to compile a custom locale for the utf-8 character set. I have issued this command: localedef --no-archive -f UTF-8 -i /usr/share/i18n/locales/en_CA at yyyy-mmm-dd en_CA at yyyy-mmm-dd.utf8 which produces the requisite files without reporting an error but which none-the-less insists on using the iso-8859-1 charset: LC_ALL=en_CA at yyyy-mm-dd locale charmap

Fine with me as long as eliminating the inconveniences associated with it can be put on the roadmap. The alias instability and the fact that the user has no way to know if s/he should do ?`foo,numeric-method` or ?`foo,numeric,ANY-method` to find the method has been a long-standing problem. H.

Hi, My package contains the following foo() generic and methods (simplified version): setGeneric("foo", signature="x", function(x, y=NA) standardGeneric("foo")) setMethod("foo", "ANY", function(x, y=NA) list(x, y)) setMethod("foo", "character", function(x, y=NA) unlist(callNextMethod())) > foo(5) [[1]]
