As it says on the help page ?ReferenceClasses: All reference classes inherit from the class "envRefClass"
So, is(x, "envRefClass") And, less well documented but less typing: is(x, "refClass") also works. On 6/6/11 9:48 AM, Janko Thyson wrote:
Dear list, is there a shortcut-function to check whether a class is a Reference Class or not? There's something like this for S4 classes ('isS4(object)'), but I couldn't find anything regarding Ref Classes. Currently, I'm doing it this way, which is a bit clumsy: A <- setRefClass("A", fields=list(X="numeric")) a <- A$new() isRefClass <- function(object, ...){ return(getClass(class(object))@class == "refClassRepresentation") # getRefClass(class(object))@class == "refObjectGenerator" } isRefClass(a) [1] TRUE Regards, Janko ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
