Hi R-community, I'm very busy with a software project which I would like to development completely with R.oo. Many of the object oriented aspects that I already know from Java development seems to be in place with this library. But...there is something that I'm really missing... *the super method call*
Just a little example that shall demonstrate what I mean: Image we have the following class hierachie that I graped from another post - thx to YuriWerewolf ;-). *ClassA* setConstructorS3("ClassA", function(A) { extend(Object(), "ClassA", .size = A ); }) setMethodS3("print", "ClassA", function(this,...) { print(paste('Class A:',this$.size)); }) *ClassB (inherits ClassA)* setConstructorS3("ClassB", function(B=15) { extend(ClassA(), "ClassB", .something = B ); }) # Now I would like to extend the behavior of the super$print() method. It is not intended to # get rid of the super$mehtods logic but to execute it too and add some more specific commands. setMethodS3("print", "ClassB", function(this,...) { /super$print()/ # this kind of call is missing print(paste('Class B:',this$.something)); }) Hopefully I could make clear what I mean. Thanks and best regards, Adam L. -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Call-super-methods-from-inherited-classes-R-oo-tp3752441p3752441.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
