{svMisc} attaches SciViews:TempEnv
at the fore
last position in the search path, so that its content is accessible from
any loaded R package (except ‘base’). This environment is a convenient
place where temporary items that you do not want to see in the global
environment, for instance, variables related to GUI (Graphical User
Interface) and that are typically a nonsense to save()
and
reload()
in the global environment.
TODO: show a couple of case where it is useful.
The following functions are available to ease access to these variables:
temp_env()
get the environment itself,assign_temp()
, add_temp()
, and
change_temp()
place or modify data in the temporary
environment,rm_temp()
or delete_temp()
eliminate
variables from there,exists_temp()
tests for the existence of objects it
this environment,get_temp()
retrieves objects from there.
