Dear all, Assume that I have an S4 class "MyClass" with a slot "myname", which is initialized to: myname="" in method("initialize"): myclass <- new("MyClass", myname="")
Assume that class "MyClass" has a method "mymethod": "mymethod.MyClass" <- function(object, myname=character(0), ...) { [EMAIL PROTECTED] <- myname; #or: myName(object) <- myname } setMethod("mymethod", "MyClass", mymethod.MyClass); Furthermore, I have a replacement method: setReplaceMethod("myName", signature(object="MyClass", value="character"), function(object, value) { [EMAIL PROTECTED] <- value; return(object); } ) I know that it is possible to call: myName(myclass) <- "newname" However, I want to replace the value of slot "myname" for object "myclass" in method "mymethod": mymethod(myclass, myname="newname") Sorrowly, the above code in method "mymethod" does not work. Is there a possibility to change the value of a slot in the method of a class?
