Hi Simon,
Thanks for your pointer.
However could you please explain what 'function(x, file_Path)
standardGeneric("save")' means here?
It is the definition of the generic function for save()?
The underlying help files look quite
rocket science for me!
So start reading about S4 seems to be essential, if you ask for S4
methods. Otherwise we cannot help, given you do not even understand the
code to define the generic function.

Thanks for your time.
Thanks and regards,

Hi Christopher,
I think, that "save" is no generic function like "plot", "show", etc. So
at first you have to determine a generic.
setGeneric("save", function(x, file_Path) standardGeneric("save"))
Now your definition via setMethod.
Best
Simon

Hello again,
I am trying to define the 'save' method for my S4 class as below:
setClass("MyClass", representation(
Slot1 = "data.frame"
))
setMethod("save", "MyClass", definition = function(x, file_Path) {
write.table(x@Slot1, file = file_Path, append = FALSE,
quote = TRUE,
sep = ",",
eol = "\n", na = "NA", dec
= ".", row.names = FALSE,
col.names = TRUE, qmethod
= c("escape", "double"),
fileEncoding = "")
})
However while doing this I am getting following error:
Error in conformMethod(signature, mnames, fnames, f, fdef, definition) :
in method for ‘save’ with signature ‘list="MyClass"’: formal
arguments (list = "MyClass", file = "MyClass", ascii = "MyClass",
version = "MyClass", envir = "MyClass", compress = "MyClass",
compression_level = "MyClass", eval.promises = "MyClass", precheck =
"MyClass") omitted in the method definition cannot be in the signature
Can somebody point me what will be the correct approach to define
'save' method for S4 class?
Thanks and regards,
