Indeed. A bit more than an hour ago, I have committed several
changes to R-devel's behavior in dealing with objects such as
(rp <- getClass("refClass")@prototype)
(ner <- new("envRefClass"))
both of which would not even correctly *print* in current R.
They now do in R-devel, also work with str() there, and
all.equal(baseenv(), baseenv())
and many more cases of all.equal() with environments now work
there as well.
I still expect that creative useRs will be able to construct
cases where the new all.equal() methods will fail, possibly
even end in an infinite loop (which is caught and leads to an
error).
Please use R-devel svn rev >= 66668 for such experiments.
Thanking you for testing ...,
