R.methodsS3 (version 1.4.4)
Utility function for defining S3 methods
Description
Methods that simplify the setup of S3 generic functions
and S3 methods. Major effort has been made in making
definition of methods as simple as possible with a minimum of
maintenance for package developers. For example, generic
functions are created automatically, if missing, and naming
conflict are automatically solved, if possible. The method
setMethodS3() is a good start for those who in the future may
want to migrate to S4. This is a cross-platform package
implemented in pure R that generates standard S3 methods.
