ds.matrixDimnames {dsBaseClient}

R Documentation

Specifies the dimnames of the server-side matrix

Description

Adds the row names, the column names or both to a matrix on the server-side.

Usage

ds.matrixDimnames(
  M1 = NULL,
  dimnames = NULL,
  newobj = NULL,
  datasources = NULL
)

Arguments

M1	a character string specifying the name of a server-side matrix.
dimnames	a list of length 2 giving the row and column names respectively. An empty list is treated as NULL.
newobj	a character string that provides the name for the output variable that is stored on the data servers. Default matrixdimnames.newobj.
datasources	a list of DSConnection-class objects obtained after login. If the datasources argument is not specified the default set of connections will be used: see datashield.connections_default.

Details

This function is similar to the native R dimnames function.

Server function called: matrixDimnamesDS

Value

ds.matrixDimnames returns to the server-side the matrix with specified row and column names. Also, two validity messages are returned to the client-side indicating the new object that has been created in each data source and if so whether it is in a valid form.
