addSVMPackage: Make a new SVM package known to the bridge.

In aydindemircioglu/SVMBridge: A Bridge to Integrate Different 'SVM' Solvers into R

Description

This function will create an object corresponding to the SVM object. By using the findSVMSoftware/findSVMWrapper functions., one can add search for the corresponding wrappe and the software. To avoid lengthy searches, this function can be used to directly 'shortcut' the search, by specifiying the directories where the wrapper/software lies. If this is successful, later findSVM.. calls are unneccessary.

Usage

addSVMPackage(method = NA, wrapperName = NA, wrapperPath = NA,
  softwarePath = NA, verbose = FALSE)

Arguments

method	Name of solver
wrapperName	Name of the wrapper (as filename). if none given, method_wrapper.R will be used.
wrapperPath	File path to the wrapper. if none is given, findSVMWrapper needs to be called
softwarePath	Path where to find the solver (software), if none is given, findSVMSoftware has to be called
verbose	Be verbose?

Note

first the given train and testBinaryPaths will be directly checked. if the binary does not exist there, the softwarePath will be added and rechecked and only if this does not work, the software will be searched via softwarePath. so one can override the search by specifiying train-/testBinaryPath.

If the wrapper searches for software, it will NOT execute it, existance is enough at this point.
