R: How to pass an object to a function?
I'm newbie in R and I'm trying to pass an object to a function but I've got an error when I try to access to a slot of this object.
These are my main code:
x <- new("menu", competition=0, stats=0, query="")
y <- show(x)
show_graphics(y)
After second instruction I've got the object "y" created correctly like you can see in this screencap:
Then, I call to a the function "show_graphics" and pass this object "y" like a parameter. But when I try to access to an slot in the first insctruction of my function:
show_graphics <- function(menu){
data <- getData(menu@query)
......
}
I've got an error that tell me that there is an error to try to access
to the slot "query" of an object to the basic class "function" without
slots.
How can I pass correctly an object to a function? Or how can I get the values from an object passed to a function?
Am I doing something wrong?
Edit I:
This is the code to create the object "menu":
setClass("menu", slots=list(competition="numeric", stats="numeric", query="character"))
show <- function(object) 0
setGeneric("show")
setMethod("show", "menu", function(object){
object@competition <- 14
object@stats <- 1
object@query <- "query"
return (object)
})
Edit II:
getData is another function, here is the code of a prototype:
getData <- function(query){
return (query)
}
r function oop

I'm not able to re-produce. When I try to run thex <- new(..line, I get the error:Error in getClass(Class, where = topenv(parent.frame())) : “menu” is not a defined class. Are you able to include all relevant code, please?

Thank you. I'm still struggling unfortunately.y <- show(x)gives me the errorError in show(x) : object 'competition' not found&show_graphics(y)gives me the errorError in getData(menu@query) : could not find function "getData". Might be worth making a simpler version of the problem that's fully re-producible

Sorry, I have forget to return the object. I have updated the code from Edit I and created an function prototype of getData in Edit II
– José Carlos
Nov 19 '18 at 13:38
Thank you. It's weird, I don't get any error when runningshow_graphics(y)now (if I remove the ......). Unrelated but you could try usingR6classes for object orientated approach. It's well supported with good documentation: adv-r.hadley.nz/r6.html
