wValue:

Object of class "ANY" - the initial value to be associated with the object

wWidth:

Object of class "numeric" - an integer for the width of the object to be rendered (if applicable)

wHeight:

Object of class "numeric" - an integer for the height of the object to be rendered (if applicable)

wFuns:

Object of class "list" - a list of R functions to be executed before the widget is activated

wPreFun:

Object of class "function" - a list of functions to be executed before the value of the widget to be updated

wPostFun:

Object of class "function" - a list of functions to be executed before the value of the widget to be retrieved

wNotify:

Object of class "list" - a list of functions to be executed each time when the value of the widget changes

wEnv:

Object of class "environment" - an R environment object within which the value of the object is stored

wView:

Object of class "widgetView" - a object of the class widgetView to which the widget is rendered

Examples

# Create an R environment to store the values of primary widgets
PWEnv <- new.env(hash = TRUE, parent = parent.frame(1))

# Create a label
label1 <- label(wName = "label1", wValue = "File Name: ", wEnv = PWEnv)

# Create an entry box with "Feed me using brows" as the default value
entry1 <- entryBox(wName = "entry1", wValue = "Feed me using browse",
                   wEnv = PWEnv)
