Hi all,
There is a compatibility issue between the package 'lme4' and my package
'kml'. I define the "[" operator. It works just fine in my package (1). If I
try to use the lme4 package, then it does no longer work (2). Moreover, it
has some kind of strange behavior (3). Do you know what is wrong? Any idea
of how I can correct that?
Here is a reproductible example, and the same code with the result follows.
Thanks for your help
Christophe
--- 8< ----------------- Code for reproductible example -------------------

"[",

j="ANY",drop="ANY"),

x <- as(x, "LongData")
return(x[i, j])
