Class "merPredD" - a Dense Predictor Reference Class
A reference class (see mother class definition
"envRefClass"
for a mixed-effects model predictor
module with a dense model matrix for the fixed-effects parameters.
The reference class is associated with a C++ class of the same name.
As is customary, the generator object, merPredD
, for the
class has the same name as the class.
Objects from this reference class correspond to objects in a C++
class. Methods are invoked on the C++ class object using the external
pointer in the Ptr
field. When saving such an object the
external pointer is converted to a null pointer, which is why there
are redundant fields containing enough information as R objects to be
able to regenerate the C++ object. The convention is that a field
whose name begins with an upper-case letter is an R object and the
corresponding field, whose name begins with the lower-case letter is a
method. References to the external pointer should be through the
method, not directly through the Ptr
field.
