[R-pkg-devel] loadMethod() not available with Rscript
Dear Joshua, Thanks for your prompt reply. I had a look at all dependencies and none of them use loadMethod(). So the culprit is probably one of their dependencies. What would be the best way to deal with this? add library(methods) to the script or import loadMethod() via the NAMESPACE? Best regards, ir.

Dear all, Could someone explain this to me? I have a simple script (see below). my_function() is an S4 method. The package imports all functions from methods that it uses. When I run the script in a vanilla R session it works. When using Rscript I get the error: Error in loadMethod(function (x, ...) : could not find function "loadMethod" loadMethod() is NOT used in mypackage and not imported.
Rscript does not load/attach the "methods" package like is done in an interactive R session. Perhaps your package uses a package that needs methods::loadMethod(), but does not import it correctly?
