[Bioc-devel] edgeR estimateGLMRobustDisp Fails when Called From A Package

[Gordon K Smyth]

edgeR knows about LargeDataObject.  It's your package that doesn't.

I never explicitly use that class in my function. I did debugging and realised what the problem is. DGEList is part of class hierarchy and it inherits from the superclass LargeDataObject

Class "DGEList" [package "edgeR"]

Slots:

Name:  .Data
Class:  list

Extends:
Class "list", from data part
Class "LargeDataObject", directly
Class "vector", by class "list", distance 2

That's why edgeR needs to know about that class.
