Hi, Strange things happen. Here is a simple example: > setClass("A", contains="integer") > setMethod("as.matrix", "A", function(x, ...) t(callNextMethod())) Creating a generic function for ?as.matrix? from package ?base? in the global environment [1] "as.matrix" > a <- new("A", 1:3) > as.matrix(a)

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

I'm attempting to reflect the information for use with corresponding fields in GUI (in a different package), to provide default values, argname as key for UI label lookups, etc. So I want something much more like the formals of the implementation: { "object", "method": c("median", "vs", "tukey"),

Agreed, definitely. The current hack is to avoid re-matching arguments on method dispatch, so a fix would need to be fairly deep in the

Hi r-devels, I am stuck in some S4 inheritance problem: setClass("A",representation(a="numeric")) setClass("A1",representation(b="numeric"),contains="A") setClass("A2",representation(c="numeric"),contains="A1") if(!isGeneric("foo")){ setGeneric("foo", function(x,y,z, ...)

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

Documentation on how to put classes and methods in packages with namespace? How should I define my classes and methods in "dynamicGraph"??? (That is - Can some one point me to the documentation on how to put classes and methods in packages with a namespace? ) Currently it is done by the code below. This gives problems, when a workspace with a "dynmaicGraph" is

Hi, The following question might come from my (deep) misunderstanding of the concepts in the package 'methods'. I have a class 'A', and a class 'B' inheriting 'A' (so defined with 'setClass' and the parameter 'contains="A"'. The class A has a method 'mymethod'. A call to 'showMethods("mymethod")' return the

Hi the list, I try to use callNextMethod in a setteur ([<-) but it does not work. Any raison ? Any other option ? --- 8< ------------------ ### Class B0 ### setClass("B0" , representation(b0 = "numeric")) setReplaceMethod("[","B0",function(x,i,j,value){x at b0 <- -value}) a <- new("B0") a at b0 <- 3 a a["b0"] <- 3 a

Hi If x <- 1:10 then x[5] <- 1i will promote x to be a complex vector. Suppose I have an S4 class "brob", and have functions is.brob(), as.brob(), as.numeric() and so forth (minimal self-contained code below). If x is numeric (1:10, say) and y is a brob, what is the best way to make x[5] <- y promote x to a brob in the same way as the complex example? Or is

Hi I have the code like I show below. The problem here is that I have a setReplacementMethod to set the value of my class slot. However, this function doesn't work when I call it within another function definition (declared by setMethod) of the same class. I do not understand this behavior that much. I'm wondering how to make this work? Any help would be really appreciated. Thank you.

Hi, I recognized that the function 'setReplaceMethod' is creating a character vector in the user workspace having the name (e.g. "newClass") of the class used as value. If you can sort out a mistake by myself, I would like you to file a bug report. BBFN, Jonathan setClass("newClass", representation(value="numeric")) setMethod(f = "initialize",

I feel tedious when I define a S4 class and the methods. For each method, I have to call both setMethod and setGeneric (or both setReplaceMethod and setGeneric). I would like a more compact grammar so that I can reduce the key strokes. I'm wondering if there is a better way available. setClass( Class='A', representation=representation( x='numeric' )

Hi, In the situation below the note issued by the dispatch algo doesn't seem right: setClass("A", representation(stuff="complex")) setAs("ANY", "A", function(from) new("A", stuff=as.complex(from))) > as(6, "A") An object of class "A" Slot "stuff": [1] 6+0i > as(6L, "A")

I have classes A and B, where B contains A. In the implementation of the group generic for B I would like to use the corresponding group generic for A. Is there a way to do that? I would also appreciate any comments if what I'm trying to do seems like the wrong approach. Here's a stripped down example: setClass("A",

Dear list, It seems that a package (pkgB) using another package (pkgA) with S4 generics formed by taking existing functions (for example 'plot') must not import the existing functions ('plot') in its namespace to avoid the warning "replacing previous import: plot". Suppose we use the simple 'import' directive in the name space of pkgB. pkgA and pkgB files would
