Dear All!
If I pass an object to an assignment function I cannot get it's name by
deparse(substitute(argument)), but I get *tmp* and I found no way to get
the original name, in the example below it should be "va1".
Is there a way?
Thanks,
Heinz
## example
'fu1<-' <- function(var, value) {
print(c(name.of.var=deparse(substitute(var))))}
fu1(va1) <- 3
name.of.var
"*tmp*"
## desired result:
## name.of.var
## "va1"
