Kia Ora
Let's say we have:
"myreplacementfunction<-" = function (..., value)
{ call = sys.call ()
print (as.list (call) )
0
}
Then we call:
x = 0
myreplacementfunction (x, y, z) = 0
It will return:
[[1]]
`myreplacementfunction<-`
[[2]]
`*tmp*`
[[3]]
y
[[4]]
z
$value
<promise: 0x06fb6968>
There's two problems here.
Firstly, x has to be defined otherwise we get an error message.
Secondly, the first argument is returned as *tmp*.
Both are incorrect.
It should be possible to call the function without defining x.
And it should return x rather than *tmp*.
In other words, replacement function calls should be the same as other
function calls.
Although it gets y and z right.
kind regards
Abs
