Duncan is correct the class is not documented but the generics, methods, and constructor functions are documented.  Kevin, I updated both devtools and Roxygen2 with the same issue.  I am using R Studio.  I tried refactoring around some functions and files whose names were close in the event that there may be some conflict.  For now, it is just a warning soI will keep looking for the problem and if I can solve it post back here as it must be quite subtle given all else is working fine.
