isS3stdGeneric {utils} | R Documentation |
Determines whether f
acts as a standard S3-style generic
function.
isS3stdGeneric(f)
f |
a function object |
A closure is considered a standard S3 generic if the first expression
in its body calls UseMethod
. Functions which perform
operations before calling UseMethod
will not be considered
“standard” S3 generics.
If f
is currently being traced, i.e., inheriting from class
"traceable"
, the definition of the original untraced version of
the function is used instead.
If f
is an S3 generic, a logical containing TRUE
with the name of the S3 generic (the string passed to
UseMethod
). Otherwise, FALSE
(unnamed).
