obj2kvh: Writing/Adding an R Object to KVH File.

In kvh: Read/Write Files in Key-Value-Hierarchy Format

Writing/Adding an R Object to KVH File.

Description

Formats an object before writing it in kvh file.

Usage

obj2kvh(obj, objname = NULL, conct = stdout(), indent = 0)

Arguments

obj	an R object
objname	character object name to write in kvh file
conct	connection opened for writing or file name
indent	is tab offset for object name

Details

Scalar, vector, matrix and list are pre-processed. Other objects are written as an output string of toString() function To add a content to existent file use "a" as open mode fcn=file("m.kvh", "a") obj2kvh() can be used along the code advancing in the calculations. Writing in a subfield of an already started key requires use of appropriate indent value. The file is started with indent=0 and every sub-field increments the indent by 1. If objname is NULL and obj is not a scalar value, the content of obj is written in kvh file without additional indent.

Value

None

Examples

m=matrix(1:6,2,3);
fcn=file("m.kvh", "w");
obj2kvh(m, "m", fcn);
close(fcn);
# clean
unlink("m.kvh")
