Sorry, assumed Reference Class created via Modules. My bad, and never mind.

But as John said, .onLoad() can be replaces since he made those changes in R
(and also in Rcpp). See ?setLoadAction, evalOnLoad(), ...

Ok - theat far I folow you. But how do I implement this?

I have now the following .onLoad() function:

,----
| .onLoad <- function(libname, pkgname) {
|     setClass(
|         "inDrak",
|         representation(
|             init = "SpatialGridDataFrame"
|             ),
|         contains = "simObj"
|         )
| }
`----

in the file ./R/onLoad.R in my package.

Now how can I now use the setLoadFunction()? I tried to simply put the
setClass in the setLoadFunction() as follow into the ./R/onLoad.R file:

,----
| setLoadFunction( function(libname, pkgname) {
|     setClass(
|         "inDrak",
|         representation(
|             init = "SpatialGridDataFrame"
|             ),
|         contains = "simObj"
|         )
| }
`----

but this did not work. 

So what do I have to do with it? I only find very few examples using
setLoadFunction().
