How to specify search order for require()

Fri, Apr 12, 2002 9:06 AM

In a .First.lib I want to issue two require()s to insure that two other packages are loaded.  But I want the package being loaded by .First.lib using library.dynam("mypackage",pkb,lib) to be higher in the search order than the two required packages, because I want to have a couple of functions from the two required packages overridden.  What is the best way to do that?  Thanks in advance -Frank
