Re: [Rd] bug in cor.test(method = spearman)

2009-01-26 Thread John Chambers
A recently committed revison of R-devel (47740) has introduced a new mechanism for ordering superclasses consistently, with related changes for selecting inherited methods. As part of the process, a function testInheritedMethods has been introduced that examines method selection for the
