Generate possible parameterizations for a given type of model

A parameterization of a PCM of given type, e.g. OU, is a PCM-class inheriting from this type, which imposes some restrictions or transformations of the parameters in the base-type. This function generates the S3 methods responsible for creating such parameterizations, in particular it generates the definition of the methods for the two S3 generics `PCMParentClasses` and `PCMSpecify` for al parameterizations specified in the `tableParameterizations` argument.

PCMGenerateParameterizations(
  model,
  listParameterizations = PCMListParameterizations(model),
  tableParameterizations = PCMTableParameterizations(model, listParameterizations),
  env = .GlobalEnv,
  useModelClassNameForFirstRow = FALSE,
  sourceFile = NULL
)

Arguments

model	a PCM object.
listParameterizations	a list or a sublist returned by `PCMListParameterizations`. Default: `PCMListParameterizations(model)`.
tableParameterizations	a data.table containing the parameterizations to generate. By default this is generated from `listParameterizations` using a call `PCMTableParameterizations(model, listParameterizations)`. If specified by the user, this parameter takes precedence over `listParameterizations` and `listParameterizations` is not used.
env	an environment where the method definitions will be stored. Default: `env = .GlobalEnv`.
useModelClassNameForFirstRow	A logical specifying if the S3 class name of `model` should be used as a S3 class for the model defined in the first row of `tableParameterizations`. Default: FALSE.
sourceFile	NULL or a character string indicating a .R filename, to which the automatically generated code will be saved. If NULL (the default), the generated source code is evaluated and the S3 methods are defined in the global environment. Default: NULL.

Value

This function does not return a value. It only has a side effect by defining S3 methods in `env`.
