mergeProperties {Java}

R Documentation

Creates the union of two named character vectors, converting to a Java-like property table

Description

Utility function to merge the two named objects, with elements single character strings, and convert the result to a vector of Java property settings.

Usage

mergeProperties(props, default, convert=T)

Arguments

`props`	named character vector of properties.
`default`	named character vector of properties with which the elements in `props` are to be merged. The values in `props` take
`convert`	a logical value which, if `TRUE` causes the the resulting character vector to be converted to Java property specifications for use in intializing the Java Virtual machine, each of the form `-Dname=value`

Value

Augments the default with the named values that are in props and not in default and also replaces those shared by both vectors with those in props. If the argument convert is TRUE, elements of the vector are converted to Java properties suitable for initializing the JVM.
