similar to: Reference Classes: Generalizing Reference Class Generator objects?

Hi, I'm trying to create a package that contains reference class definitions from which users can create reference objects, but there seems to be something awry. My toy example creates an empty package via package.skeleton('TestClass') to which I add the following R code: TestClass <- setRefClass('TestClass',fields=c('name')) Unfortunately my R console output

Dear All, I came across an error message recently when constructing a reference class, an example is attached below, it looks like only if I call a specific method in advance, otherwise it cannot be found in defined method without using .self, this make it difficulty that sometimes in my initialize method, I need to call other method defined in the same reference class, the workaround for this is

Dear John and others, I've been wondering about whether there's any way to indicate a "nil" reference class object, which will represent "no value", and be tested for, but not fail the internal type checking. NULL is the obvious choice (or seems so to me), but can only be used if an explicit class union is created: > Foo <- setRefClass("Foo") > Bar

When a reference class method is accessed with .self$x, it has different behavior from .self[['x']]. The former copies the function to the object's environment (with some attributes attached), and the latter just return NULL (unless it has already been accessed once with .self$x). Is this how it's supposed to work? Here's an example that illustrates:

Dears, I have a question about copying reference objects using the initialize method. 1) If the latter has no arguments, there is no problem to copy an object. myClass = setRefClass("myClass", fields = list(value = "numeric") ) myClass$methods(initialize = function(...){ ? value <<- 1 ? callSuper(...) }) newObject = myClass$new() newObject$value = 2 copyObject =

As suggested by the following code: A <- setRefClass("A", fields = list(x = "logical"), methods = list(initialize = function(...) { x <<- FALSE initFields(...) })) A$new() # Works as expected quote <- as.character A$new() # Error in function (value) : # invalid replacement for field ?x?, should be from class ?logical? or a subclass (was class

Hi there, I''d like to choose between an "static" and "dynamic" access of a reference class field, say ''a''. myObj <- getRefClass("Blabla")$new() Static: myObj$a Dynamic: myObj$a.get() where the function retrieves the data from a database (or some other location), stores it to a buffer and

Hi all, this is my first post in R devel? sorry if I lost some of the guidelines. Anyway this is my problem: Version: R version 2.15.2 (2012-10-26) Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin9.8.0/x86_64 (64-bit) I want to make an S4 class that use the output object of the function of nls.lm as a slot: setOldClass("nls.lm") setClass ( Class="TestClass",

Hi R friends,   I'm still studying S4 classes and I have a question about slot assignment. Why would I have to use a special setter method [example 2 below] if I can assign data to a slot directly when I call new() [example 1 below]?   ## first way to do it (the idiosyncratic way?) setClass(Class = "TestClass", representation = representation(myDf = "data.frame"))

As of rev. 61035 in r-devel, setRefClass() now returns a generator function, as setClass() has done since 2.15.0. The convenient style is now: mEdit <- setRefClass("mEdit",......) xx <- mEdit(data = xMat) instead of xx <- mEdit$new(data = xMat) The returned object still has fields and methods accessible as before. See the "Value" and "Reference Class

I don't understand the following behavior for a simple S3 class. The auto-printing at the command line doesn't behave as I expect. I'm probably missing something, but it might be a bug. > print.testClass <- function(x, ...) cat("Class:", class(x), ":", x, "\n") > structure(1, class = "testClass") Class: testClass : 1 > print(1 *

Hello, I am the maintainer of the stringkernels package and have come across a problem with using S3 objects in my S4 classes. Specifically, I have an S4 class with a slot that takes a text corpus as a list of character vectors. tm (version 0.5) saves corpora as lists with a class attribute of c("VCorpus", "Corpus", "list"). I don't actually need the

Dear all, I've just had a package update bounced from CRAN because of a recent change in R-devel which seems to affect the behaviour of the initFields() reference class method. (The change must be very recent because I tested the package on a week-old build of R-devel.) It seems that the method no longer coerces its arguments to the expected type of each field. For a simple example: > Foo

Dear List, I am not really familiar with any other language than R, but I?ve heard that in other languages there is something called ?self referencing?. Here?s what I?m trying to get an answer for: Suppose there is a function that takes as its input a value of a slot of an S4 object. The function itself is stored in another slot of the SAME S4 object. Is it then possible to have the function

> setRefClass("Foo", fields = list()) Error in setRefClass("Foo", fields = list()) : A list argument for fields must have nonempty names for all the fields In my opinion, the above should not fail. There are no fields. Thanks, Michael [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear list, can someone explain to me why deparse(substitute(x)) does not seem to work when x is of a user-defined S3 class? In my actual problem, my print method is part of a package, and the method is registered in the NAMESPACE, if that should make a difference. > print.testclass <- function(x,...){ xname <- deparse(substitute(x)) cat("Your object name

Hello, I wrote a class like so: > rcfdpsuperclass <- setRefClass( > Class="rcfdpsuperclass", > fields = list( > RcfpdVersion = "character"), > methods = list( > initialize = function(){ > 'Populates fields with defaults and lock as appropriate' > initFields( > RcfpdVersion =

Hi, New to this list, and glad I found R5 which si a great improvement to R for my work. Something seems odd anyway, when I do a setRefClass, the initialize method execute at the class definition. I would like it to execute only when an instance is created. How can I do that? I found no way to test if the code execution is when the class definition happens or when a $new instance is created.

I edit two files named test.h,test.cpp as follow: ///////////////test.h////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////class TestClass { private: int fTotal; public: TestClass(); ~TestClass(); };///////////test.cpp/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////#include "test.h" TestClass::TestClass() { fTotal = 2; }
