Dear all,
I ran into some issues that I've been trying to figure out for weeks but with
no success. So I'm looking for some advice here. I've the following questions:
1. I want to write some S4 classes and methods and add them into a current
package that was written in S3. Is this possible? Can both S3 and S4 methods
exist in one package?
2. When I sourced my functions using "source", they work perfectly for all my
testing examples. But if I put them into a package, build, install and load
this package, then surprisingly, some of the same testing code reports an
error! But they are just the same functions except the fact that when I load
the package, the previously existing S3 methods will also be loaded. Is it
possibly because of some conflicts between S3 and S4 since when I source it,
only S4 methods are loaded?
This has been really confusing to me, and I really hope I could find some
answers here. Many thanks in advance.
