an object from getAttr
Not used currently.
For getAttr
, when type is "case", it is a data frame with class
of "CaseAttr"; when type is "file", it is a data frame with class of
"FileAttr". For showSubset
, no value is returned, the
side-effect is to change the file list or case list in the respective
widget.
You can add and modify the attributes of cases or files. getAttr
returns this attributes as a data frame.
Sometimes, you only want to show a subset of files or cases according to
their attributes. You can do the subset operation of the result from
getAttr
and pass it to showSubset
, or you can pass a
subset argument to GetAttr
. The meaning of subset is the same as
that in subset
function.
# NOT RUN {
attr <- getAttr("case")
showSubset(subset(attr,attribute1==1)) ## assuming there is a variable
named atttribute1 in attr.
# }
