Compute the class hierarchy for a collection of R6 class definitions

Description

This function analyzes the R6 class definitions in a package and computes the relationships between them in terms of which classes inherit/extend other classes. This creates a class hierarchy which we can then query and visualize.

Usage

getR6ClassInherits(pkg, ns = getNamespace(pkg))

Arguments

pkg	the name of an R package (without the "package:" prefix.
ns	the namespace for the package

Value

A 2-column data.frame providing the to-from edges for the graph that identifies which class directly inherits from which other class.
