OutputParameter: Output Parameter for SQL Stored Procedure: Class Generator

OutputParameter: generates an OutputParameter Object that captures the information about the output parameters of the function that is to be embedded into a SQL Server Stored Procesure. Those will become the output parameters of the stored procedure. Supported R types of the output parameters are POSIXct, numeric, character, integer, logical, and raw. This object must be created if the R function is returning a named list for non-data frame memebers of the list

Usage

  OutputParameter(name, type)

Arguments

name

A character string, the name of the output parameter object.

type

R type of the output parameter object.

Value

OutputParameter Object

Examples

 ## Not run:

 # See ?StoredProcedure for creating the "cleandata" table.

 # train 2 takes a data frame with clean data and outputs a model
 # as well as the data on the basis of which the model was built

   # Train the model
   rxSetComputeContext("local")
   mm <- rxLinMod(formula, data=in_df, transformFunc=NULL, transformVars=NULL)
   mm <- rxSerializeModel(mm)
