similar to: Matrix package breaks as.matrix method

Hi, Short answer: import 'as.matrix' and export your method(s) for it. From WRE: "All S4 classes to be used outside the package need to be listed in an exportClasses directive. Alternatively, they can be specified using exportClassPattern.(46) in the same style as for exportPattern. To export methods for generics from other packages an exportMethods directive can be used."

CRAN reached 12,000 packages [1] today (December 15, 2017). A huge thank you to the CRAN team! Milestones: 2017-12-15 12000 pkgs (+6.1/day over 165 days) 6910 mnts (+3.2/day) 2017-07-04 11000 pkgs (+6.3/day over 159 days) 6377 mnts (+3.3/day) 2017-01-27 10000 pkgs (+6.3/day over 158 days) 5845 mnts (+3.5/day) 2016-08-22 9000 pkgs (+5.7/day over 175 days) 5289 mnts (+5.8/day) 2016-02-29 8000

Continuing the tradition to post millennia milestones on CRAN: So, it happened. Today (January 27, 2017 PCT) CRAN reached 10,000 packages [1]. Needless to say, the rate with which new packages are added to CRAN keeps increasing and so does the number of contributors (maintainers). Somewhere out there, there are ~3 persons who are about to submit their first packages to CRAN today and ~3 persons

Thanks, I was just coming to that conclusion and beginning to look for a way to make a list of exportable objects.

After library(quantreg), ls("package:quantreg") will list all the names you currently export. So cat(ls("package:quantreg"), sep = ", ") will print the list in a form suitable for including

Dear developers, I have a small but more or less well defined inquiry. Another, more general one for which I was not able to find information is towards the end of this messages. The question seems to be too technical for R-help, that is why I post it here. When installing packages (Windows XP), occasionally the installation does not complete because, it seems, Windows locks some files.

> ... reports that the fortran names of all the registered fortran functions are ?undocumented objects?... Those symbols should not be exported. In quantreg v5.33, NAMESPACE has 'exportPattern(".")'. Maybe it is a good time to remove that and export explicitly the symbols that are meant for export. Georgi Boshnakov ------------------------------ Message: 6 Date: Fri, 28

Bringing up an old topic on a small technicality. In the help documentation on seq. Value: The result is of 'mode' '"integer"' if 'from' is (numerically equal to an) integer and 'by' is not specified. The arguement in seq specifying length also creates "double" which is not obvious in the wording, as "by" is not specified

Hi, The Matrix package and the as.matrix method do not seem to be compatible inside of a package. Here's an example. I've created a simple package "mat" that defines an eponymous class and as.matrix method on that class. All is well, unless that package has the Matrix package in its Depends or Imports (and imports, e.g. the "Diagonal" function). Then my as.matrix

Thanks for the report, I am testing a patch that will allow multi-line arguments to user macros.

Defending the status quo misses the point that R *could* handle ordinal data with a fixed set of levels but actually *does not*. Although it would be useful. Even if this does not imply to handle any possible straw-man situations. Having data-types for nominal, ordinal, and interval-scale data is - in theory - one of the major advantages of S over SAS. But *having* without *handling* means: only

Hi, I wonder if the following (apparent) inconsistency is a bug or feature. Since scalars are simply vectors of length one I would think that a and a:a produce the same result. For example, > identical(4.01,4.01:4.01) [1] TRUE However, identical(4,4:4) [1] FALSE and > identical(4.0,4.0:4.0) [1] FALSE A closer look reveals that the colon operator produces objects

While on the topic of Rd macro arguments, it seems that if a multiline argument is supplied, the lines after the first are silently ignored: f <- tempfile() mac6 <- "\\newcommand{\\mac6}{mac6: #1}" cat(mac6, "\\mac6{2*3 2+2 sin(pi) }\n", file = f) rd <- tools::parse_Rd(f) > rd mac6: 2*3 --- Georgi Boshnakov -----Original Message----- From: Tomas Kalibera

Abby, my answer was too concise. The thrust is that even if you define a method for "[<-" with signature x="matrix" and value ="Matrix", for example, it will never be used since "matrix" is S3. If instead x="someS4class" then the S4 method will be invoked. There may be cases when changing the class of the left-hand side make sense (such as

Is it possible to consider adding .emacs.desktop and .emacs.desktop.lock to files ignored by R CMD build?

The documentation shells created by the utility functions for classes and methods contain section "Methods". Due to a slight difference in the layout and the underlying Rd code, function signatures are wrapped on the following line (if necessary) in the "methods" section in a class description (xxx-class.Rd) but not in xxx.-methods.Rd. As a result long signatures may

Hi, The R input/output after the following paragraph is from a session with version.string R version 2.4.0 Patched (2006-11-23 r39958). The last element, x$c, of x has no value and after the assignment of x to the formals of f, x$c does not become a formal argument of f. The second assignment does the job. It seems that x$c actually becomes the body of f after the first assignment. There is no
