quantmod package using "convert.time.series" function
Hi Tom, Unexported means you've got to go the ::: route. Primary reason is that it was really written to simplify the code, and unexported meant one less thing to document. You could simply hard-code the conversion to whatever you like, and forgo that function. The other option is to each session use fixInNamespace and fix on the fly. This is probably quite unreliable though, not to mention messy. You could also change the source before installing. In all honestly the interface should include a way to modify for your own db schema, but that isn't there yet... HTH, Jeff

Hi Tom, The function is internal to quantmod, as such undocumented and ugly :)
Ah right, I am still new to R.
So its suggests a quick question, which I am sure further reading of the
documentation will resolve, however I am hoping to short-cut reading all
of that pdf today ;-)
Question: I am making a quick change to the getSymbols.MySQL to support
my database layout of choice, which is a single table with a symbol
field.
Is there any way to temporarily add my getSymbols.MySQL <- function() to
the the quantmod package/namespace? It seems I can reference the
internal function directly with quantmod:::convert.time.series() but I
would prefer some sort of namespace("quantmod") to add my function to
quantmod while I am doing some messing about on it?
Thanks,
T
