Hi all,
I'm trying to build a package, but run into problems with generic functions.
I have two classes "aa" and "bb", and defined the function "summary.bb". Now I
want to make "summary.bb" the default method for both classes "aa" and "bb".
That is, if I have two objects "object.aa" and "object.bb" from class "aa" and "bb"
respectively, the function call "summary(object.aa)" and "summary(object.bb)" will
apply the function "summary.bb" at default. How can I do that? Should I use
"setMethod" ? Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Wayne
