Hi Lindsay,
Is this issue specific to the Windows CRAN checks?
This Windows-specific error was also affecting several Bioconductor
packages until recently but has been addressed in the latest version of
Rhtslib (v 1.15.6). What version of Rhtslib are they using for the CRAN
checks? They need t
Dear Kayla,
thank you for writing us about the MoonlightR package.
I am one of the maintainer of the package, I got this mail from Catharina.
Please as I changed University can you update my contact mail to

I am currently out of the office for a conference, I will come b
I'm the maintainer of polyRAD, which is hosted on CRAN but dependent on several
Bioconductor packages including VariantAnnotation. I'm not sure if my problem
is on CRAN's end or Bioconductor's end, but in any event I have not gotten a
response from CRAN yet so I thought I would ask here.
I am
Hi Boris,
AFAICT the ::() syntax also works well with generics.
Note that people sometimes specify the that exports some
specific method for the generic when they should actually specify the
where the generic is defined.
One thing about the "regular function with if (is()) statements" vs
ge
They're symbols in the namespace, so namespace qualification is possible.

I am more and more emphasizing ::() syntax in my teaching,
to avoid the issues that library() have wrt. order of loading, and
clarity of code. It's my understanding that that's a general trend. Now, do
correct me if I'm wrong but IIRC, that doesn't work well with generics because
they don't ge
This is good advice. The purpose of the software also matters. The main
advantage of a generic is extensibility. If extensibility is important,
generics are appropriate, even if there is no immediate need for
polymorphism. Bioconductor emphasizes extensibility, and thus generics, but
it's not the o
This is a common situation. Most packages might have a need for something
that looks like a generic, but it really only has a usage inside your own
package(s).
In many ways, the pseudo-generic you define using if() statements is often
easier to work with, debugging wise and code-reading wise. Howe
Today is the last day to commit changes to the master (devel) branch for
release 3.9 before we branch the official release. Tomorrow morning the branch
will be frozen for a period of time and we will branch the new RELEASE_3_9 in
git. The master (devel) branch will then be active for Bioc 3.1
Since this changes does not affect the runnable code and only the test you can
push whenever you like.
