x-as.POSIXct(1970-1-1, tz=UTC)-.5
y-as.POSIXct(1970-1-1, tz=UTC)+.5
x==y
[1] FALSE # of course
but x and y appear to be the same when formatted, even with extra
precision:
format(x, format=%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%OS2)
[1] 1970-01-01 00:00:00.50
format(y, format=%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%OS2)
[1] 1970-01-01
Thanks. Yes, negative POSIX time would correspond to dates prior to
1970-1-1, or to dates prior to a more recent origin that borrows
functionality from the POSIXt class: as.POSIXct(-.5,
origin=as.POSIXct(2011-1-1)).
If negative POSIX time is supposed to work then it's a bug in as.POSIXlt().
any workaround that avoids the use of
callNextMethod on `[` with 3 or more subscripts is a good idea.

I interpreted cleaner to mean preferred. From your reply, John, it
sounds like I should go back to the obj...@.data construct.

When I get the data part of an S4 class that contains=data.frame, it gives
me a list, even when the data.frame is the S4 version:
d-data.frame(x=1:3)
isS4(d)
[1] FALSE # of course
dS4-new(data.frame,d)
isS4(dS4)

Again, thanks to everyone for your time in schooling me on the issues. :-)

Thank you, Professor, for drawing my attention to the nifty tracemem
function. I'm using the ..1 syntax to check the properties of the S4 class
at function call.
The Description at ?cBind tells me that I'm not alone in this predicament.
Just as Matrix needs its own cBind function, my package will

I have an S4 method that simply formats an object:
setGeneric(formatMe, function(x) standardGeneric(formatMe))
setMethod(formatMe, ANY, function(x) format(x))
If I issue the above in an R session, then define an S4 class with its own
format method, I get the desired result:
Thank you, Martin. That worked. And fyi 'export(format)' alone was not
sufficient.

Johann,
Following up on Gabor's reply, the mondate package (new on CRAN last week)
will accomplish your needs.
I'm trying to make an integer-backed quarter (as in fraction of year)
class, but I can't quite it to work. I want integer-backed so I don't
have to worry about floating-point effects
calculations. It could
serve other purposes just fine, however.
Best regards,
Dan

I must be misunderstanding something fundamental about how an S4 class
