oceSetMetadata: Set Something in an oce metadata Slot

Description

Set Something in an oce metadata Slot

Usage

oceSetMetadata(object, name, value, note = "")

Arguments

object

an '>oce object.

name

String indicating the name of the item to be set.

value

Value for the item.

note

Either empty (the default), a character string, or NULL, to control additions made to the processing log of the return value. If note="" then the an entry is created based on deparsing the function call. If note is a non-empty string, then that string gets added added to the processing log. Finally, if note=NULL, then nothing is added to the processing log. This last form is useful in cases where oceSetData is to be called many times in succession, resulting in an overly verbose processing log; in such cases, it might help to add a note by e.g. processingLog(a) <- "QC (memo dek-2018-01/31)"
