List, In order to get rid of some old, unreadable S3 code in package sp, I'm trying to rewrite things using S4 methods. Somewhere I fail, and I cannot sort out why. In order to isolate the problem, I created two functions, doNothing<- and dosth, and both should do nothing. The issue is that in most cases they do nothing, but in some cases dosth(obj) changes the class of obj and breaks with

A while ago our institute was approached by a large company, say XXX, who asked whether we would like to become an Xxx development center, as we are active in the same area. After some negotation we did, believing there will be mutual benefits. Some time later, after putting up the Xxx development center logo on the institute home page, my feeling grew that we are also, and probably to a larger

Dear All I would really appreciate some help with a script which a colleague wrote for me, but I am having problems running (and have not been able to contact my colleague). The script is designed to compare the area of suitable habitat in binary projections of a large number of species current and future distributions, and create an excel file detailing the total area suitable in the

When running a = runif(10) class(a) = "foo" Math.foo = function(x, ...) { NextMethod(.Generic) } signif(a, 3) cumsum(a) I don't understand why cumsum strips the class, but signif does not. Both claim in the documentation that "These are generic functions: methods can be defined for them individually or via the ?Math? group generic." -- Edzer Pebesma Institute for

Hi All, I was wondering if anyone here as successfully converted a package for windows to one that will work in Linux? What are the necessary steps if you have the source code? Thanks, Josh

Thanks, Paul -- setting the ~/.fonts.conf file the way ?X11 describes it under the section you pointed to resolved the problem for me, on ubuntu.

In plotmath expressions, R's degree symbol, e.g. shown by plot(1, main = parse(text = "1*degree*C")) has sunk to halfway the text line, instead of touching its top. In older R versions this looked much better. -- Edzer Pebesma Institute for Geoinformatics Heisenbergstrasse 2, 48151 Muenster, Germany Phone: +49 251 8333081

Hi Thanks for that, but I still cannot confirm on ... sudo docker run -v $(pwd):/home/work/ -w /home/work --rm -ti rocker/r-ver:3.5.1 Could you please read the comments within the "Cairo Fonts" section of the ?X11 help page, in case that offers some explanation.

Thanks to Edzer and Roger, I can now plot with increased font sizes. However, jpeg still does not reproduce these, nor does it show up in high quality. What I would like to do is produce some highresolution jpegs. Any help would be appreciated Thanx Herry R2.4 on Mandriva 10.2 linux.

Hi, I am using a samba server for file sharing in our companies IPv4 based LAN. The samba server is running as VM on a ubuntu 14.04 qemu/kvm host using ubuntu 14.04 as OS. I am using the lastet version available for samba: 4.1.6+dfsg-1ubuntu2.14.04.3 My Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 client are able to find the server and connect to the shares but the Windows 8.1 client of a colleague is not able to

Hi I am seeking to understand why the methods package (to be specific `methods:::.findOrCopyClass` when called by `setIs` when called by `setClass`) emits a warning message such as ` class "SpatialLinesNULL" is defined (with package slot 'rgeos') but no metadata object found to revise subclass information---not exported? Making a copy in package 'minweSpatialNULL `

This warning message is on my to-look-at list; I agree that sometimes it's obviously possible for the system to get the information if it tries hard enough. The message means what it says: Class information in a session includes the currently loaded subclasses of a particular class. Not critical but sometimes useful. In this case, (as I understand it without having looked recently), the

We're happy to announce the CRAN release of "sp", an R package which has new-style classes and methods for spatial data, version 0.7-9. Spatial data types that sp implements are: points, grids, lines, and polygons (i.e., rings) optionally with holes. Methods include + the usual print, summary, plot, [, [[, $, ... + coercion between types (e.g. points and grids, matrices,

On looking more closely, the purpose of finding the class definition is to update the entry for the new relationship, as the warning message suggests. That requires that the namespace holding the definition be writable. In the case of subclass information, the original namespace is very likely to be locked, if it's not the package currently being loaded. Copying the definition in order to

A locked environment > " prevents adding or removing variable bindings from the environment. Changing the value of a variable is still possible unless the binding has been locked" A bit of experimentation shows that as well as
