dot-methodWithNext: Saves the next method in the method meta data

In ropensci/RNeXML: Semantically Rich I/O for the 'NeXML' Format

Saves the next method in the method meta data

Description

Promotes the given method definition to an instance of MethodWithNext, thereby recording the next method in the nextMethod slot.

Usage

.methodWithNext(method, nextMethod, .cache = FALSE)

Arguments

method	the MethodDefinition object to promote
nextMethod	the MethodDefinition object to record as the next method
.cache	whether to cache the promoted method definition object (using methods::cacheMethod())

Value

an instance of MethodWithNext, which has the next method in the nextMethod slot

Note

MethodWithNext objects are normally returned by methods::addNextMethod(), but a constructor function for the class seems missing (or is undocumented?). This provides one.
