Sorry to bring up an old thread -- but I want to use the "fix"
parameter in resizing GRanges objects in some of my code.
I see that this change has been made to SVN, but if I'm not mistaken,
it seems to not be coming to the GRanges stuff that's scheduled to
land w/ BioC 2.7/R-2.12?
Is this intentional? If so, how come? I don't think it'll break
backwards compatibility, right?
Maybe an oversight? (perhaps on my part, or "yours" :-)?
For now I think I'm just going to take this code and override the
BioC-2.7 version of resize, since I'd like to use it but can't upgrad
to svn GRanges since some of my stuff is getting hosed with the
"circular" stuff that's starting to be introduced.
Thanks,
-steve
