Package: S4Vectors Title: Foundation of vector-like and list-like containers in Bioconductor Description: The S4Vectors package defines the Vector and List virtual classes and a set of generic functions that extend the semantic of ordinary vectors and lists in R. Package developers can easily implement vector-like or list-like objects as concrete subclasses of Vector or List. In addition, a few low-level concrete subclasses of general interest (e.g. DataFrame, Rle, Factor, and Hits) are implemented in the S4Vectors package itself (many more are implemented in the IRanges package and in other Bioconductor infrastructure packages). biocViews: Infrastructure, DataRepresentation URL: https://bioconductor.org/packages/S4Vectors BugReports: https://github.com/Bioconductor/S4Vectors/issues Version: 0.51.5 License: Artistic-2.0 Encoding: UTF-8 Authors@R: c( person("Hervé", "Pagès", role=c("aut", "cre"), email="hpages.on.github@gmail.com"), person("Michael", "Lawrence", role="aut"), person("Patrick", "Aboyoun", role="aut"), person("Aaron", "Lun", role="ctb"), person("Beryl", "Kanali", role="ctb", comment="Converted vignettes from Sweave to RMarkdown")) Depends: R (>= 4.1.0), methods, utils, stats, stats4, BiocGenerics (>= 0.59.5) Suggests: IRanges, GenomicRanges, SummarizedExperiment, Matrix, DelayedArray, ShortRead, graph, data.table, RUnit, BiocStyle, knitr VignetteBuilder: knitr Collate: S4-utils.R show-utils.R utils.R normarg-utils.R bindROWS.R LLint-class.R isSorted.R subsetting-utils.R vector-utils.R integer-utils.R character-utils.R raw-utils.R eval-utils.R map_ranges_to_runs.R RectangularData-class.R Annotated-class.R DataFrame_OR_NULL-class.R Vector-class.R Vector-comparison.R Vector-setops.R Vector-merge.R Hits-class.R Hits-comparison.R Hits-setops.R Rle-class.R Rle-utils.R Factor-class.R List-class.R List-comparison.R splitAsList.R List-utils.R SimpleList-class.R HitsList-class.R DataFrame-class.R DataFrame-combine.R DataFrame-comparison.R DataFrame-utils.R DataFrameFactor-class.R TransposedDataFrame-class.R Pairs-class.R FilterRules-class.R stack-methods.R expand-methods.R aggregate-methods.R shiftApply-methods.R zzz.R Repository: https://bioc.r-universe.dev Date/Publication: 2026-06-29 10:06:55 UTC RemoteUrl: https://github.com/bioc/S4Vectors RemoteRef: HEAD RemoteSha: 7477dbc1dbe5a226619dca46f610629db4d0b96f NeedsCompilation: yes Packaged: 2026-06-29 14:17:20 UTC; root Author: Hervé Pagès [aut, cre], Michael Lawrence [aut], Patrick Aboyoun [aut], Aaron Lun [ctb], Beryl Kanali [ctb] (Converted vignettes from Sweave to RMarkdown) Maintainer: Hervé Pagès
