I have another problem with NextMethod. Not sure if its related to the last problem.
In this example, we have a generic called ff with methods for AsIs and test classes. We call the generic with an object of AsIs class. The corresponding method adds 1 to it and then changes the class to test followed by issuing a NextMethod. However, that results in this error (using R 2.0.0, 2004-10-04 Windows XP): Error in NextMethod("ff") : No method to invoke Why can't NextMethod find ff.test ? I also tried a number of variations of this including adding x = x to the NExtMethod argument list but none of these variations worked. --- ff <- function(x, ...) UseMethod("ff") ff.AsIs <- function(x, ...) { x <- x + 1 class(x) <- "test" NextMethod("ff") } ff.test <- function(x, ...) cat(x, class(x), ..., "\n") ff(I(3)) ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
