BitwiseValue: Create enumeration value

Create enumeration value

Description

These functions and related classes and methods are used to work

Usage

BitwiseValue(val, name = names(val),
               class = if (is(val, "BitwiseValue"))
                         class(val)
                       else "BitwiseValue",
             asVector = TRUE, S3 = FALSE,
             defValues = getEnumValues(class, name))

Arguments

val	the value which is to be converted to the appropriate enumerated class. This can be a numeric value or vector, or a character vector giving the names of the symbolic constants within the enumeration set.
name	the symbolic name(s) of the value(s) in val. This is the symbolic names from the enumeration set.
class	the name of the R class corresponding to the specific enumeration type.
asVector	a logical value controlling the case where there is more than one value in val and how we return it. We can process each value separately, or we can process them as a collection of values to be OR'ed together. If this is TRUE, then we OR the values together. Otherwise, we treat each value separtely and reutrn a list of these processed values.
S3	currently ignored. a logical value. This is no longer used as we use S4 classes for these enumeration types
defValues	the named vector of symbolic name and value pairs that define the enumeration collection. We try to find this based on the name of the class of val or class or from the names of the variables in val if this is a string.
