Hello, I read the section "Tidying R Code" in "Writing R Extension" and tried to tidy some of my class-definitions. ("Tidying R Code" doesn't mention classes, just functions)
When I procede as follows in R 1.8.1 > > options(keep.source = FALSE) > source("myclass.R") > dump(ls(all = TRUE), file = "new.myclass.R") > to tidy the class definition > > setClass("myclass", representation(a = "numeric", b = "numeric")) > the resulting code below in my opinion is by no ways more readable and even worse, the file new.myclass.R produces a parsing error if is read in via source or when pasted into the R process. Is there someone working on this issue? Or is this irrelevant? Best regards, Thomas Stabla -- Code produced by dump: ".__C__myclass" <- structure(list(), slots = structure(list(a = "numeric", b = "numeric"), .Names = c("a", "b")), contains = list(), virtual = FALSE, prototype = structure(list(), a `, access = list(), className = structure("myclass", package = ".GlobalEnv"), package = ".GlobalEnv", subclasses = list(), versionKey = <pointer: 0x401e5bc0>, sealed = FALSE, class = "classRepresentation") NULL= numeric(0), b = numeric(0)), validity = ` -- ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
