similar to: S4 plot generic documentation

I'm in the process of converting some S3 methods to S4 methods. I have this function : setGeneric("enrichmentCalc", function(rs, organism, seqLen, ...){standardGeneric("enrichmentCalc")}) setMethod("enrichmentCalc", c("GenomeDataList", "BSgenome"), function(rs, organism, seqLen, ...) { ... ... ... })

Hello all, I'd like to report a problem related to S4 classes. Platform: Mac G4/400 PCI (PPC-architecture) Mac OS 10.4.8 R 2.4.1 for Mac OS X (CRAN binary, 2006-12-19) w/ R.app 1.18 Last December, Simon Urbanek confirmed that the issue is not platform related, and that it is most likely a bug. He suggested to post my report to "the appropriate mailing list" -- I choose r-devel.

Late to the show on this release, unfortunately. One of our production packages no longer builds under R-2.15.0 with the following message. ** testing if installed package can be loaded Error: Function found when exporting methods from the namespace 'SuperCurve' which is not S4 generic: 'image' Possibly relevant clues follow: ## From R/AllGenerics.R if

Hi, i have used S4 classes to implement a unified access to random number generators (package rstream on CRAN). I have used a construct to allow optional arguments: if(!isGeneric("rstream.sample")) setGeneric("rstream.sample", function(stream,...) standardGeneric("rstream.sample")) setMethod("rstream.sample",

Hello, the last command (isGeneric) in following R-code (attached) produces different output, depending on wheter 1.8.0 alpha or 1.7.1 is used. Is that to be expected ? Both R Versions were started with option vanilla --------------------------------------------------- R.1.7.1: --------------------------------------------------- > version _ platform i686-pc-linux-gnu arch i686

Hello R-List, ** This e-mail was initially bounced. Please forgive any duplicates.** I'm creating a new generic function and 3 associated methods, in which each of the methods only needs a subset of the arguments specified in the generic. So, I create the generic like so (with the signature defaulting to all of the args) ... setGeneric( name="myFunction", def =

Hello all, I consider myself pretty new to the whole OO based programming so I'm sorry if I'm doing something stupid. > xml<-read.metlin(url) Error in function (classes, fdef, mtable) : unable to find an inherited method for function "read.metlin", for signature "url" >read.metlin standardGeneric for "read.metlin" defined from package

I discovered the following behavior when source'ing the same file repeatedly as I edited it. My generic stopped acting like a generic. I can't tell from the docs what, if any, behavior is expected in this case. R 2.4.0 > foo <- function(object) 3 > isGeneric("foo") [1] FALSE > setMethod("foo", "matrix", function(object) 4) Creating a new

This is a correction to my previous message, I forgot to swap two lines in the body of setMakeGenericMethod. Sorry about that. The correct (full message) reads like this: Hi, This works > setGeneric("clear", function(obj) standardGeneric("clear")) [1] "clear" but this doesn't. Why? > funName <- "clear" > setGeneric(funName,

Hi, OK, if you try to explicitly make them generic, you are told that they are implicitly already generic: > setGeneric("is.finite", function(from, ...) standardGeneric("is.finite")) Error in setGeneric("is.finite", function(from, ...) standardGeneric("is.finite")) : "is.finite" is a primitive function; methods can be defined, but the

Interrogating some (of my own) code in another package. >norm.meth <- getMethod("normalize", "MatrixLike") >message("str(norm.meth)") >str(norm.meth) >message("show(norm.meth at .Data)") >show(norm.meth at .Data) Last show() displays this: function (object, ...) { .local <- function (object, method = c("median",

What is the Rd file alias and usage syntax for an S4 assignment method? I have been trying variations on \alias{TSdoc<-,default-method} \usage{ \S4method{TSdoc}{default}(x) <- value but so far I have not got it right according to various codoc, etc, checks.

Would you please clarify your exact use case?

Hello all, Let me try this again with some code. I am trying to make a new object and it's not working. I get : Error in rematchDefinition(definition, fdef, mnames, fnames, signature) : methods can add arguments to the generic only if '...' is an argument to the generic as my error. I have included my code. It is from the xcms package. Any help would be great even if

At this point I would just due: formals(body(method)[[2L]]) At some point we need to figure out what to do with this .local() confusion.

Hi, I found the following on Windows 2000/NT R Version 1.9.1 (2004-06-21) (also Version 1.9.0): The S4 group "Math" doesn't work as documented; i.e., "log", "log10", "gamma" and "lgamma" are included in the documentation but don't work. See example code below. Moreover, what about 'genericForPrimitive' which is used in

Dear List Members, I'm struggling with the documentation of a generic S4 replacement method. I've created a S4 method "lows" via setGeneric("lows", function(object) standardGeneric("lows")) setGeneric("lows<-", function(object, value) standardGeneric("lows<-")) setMethod("lows", "myClass", function(object) {

Hi, A lowess method is defined in our package for one of our S4 classes. To explicitely define the generic this is being used if (!isGeneric("lowess")) setGeneric("lowess", useAsDefault = lowess) This works fine for many other methods inherited from various R packages. In this case a warning is issued in R CMD check: * checking R code for possible problems ... NOTE

Hi I have some problems in defining new generic functions and classes. Just have a look at the following example: require(fPortfolio) setClass("PROBECLASS", representation( type="character" ) ) isGeneric("setType<-") #Returns TRUE #I would like to define a specific function for
