Standard objects

When working with R on Netezza, you must define a number of objects. The list describes the objects that are required in the source files when the compilation step takes place.

For each channel a specific subset is defined. For example, note that the nz. prefix is omitted.

mode
A character variable that determines the working mode; it can take one of five values: apply, tapply, run, install, groupedapply.
fun
A function object containing the actual user code; in most cases the input data is passed as the first argument under the name of x.
args
Additional arguments for fun.
shaper
Either the shaper function or the character value std, which means the standard shaper function.
shaper.args
Additional shaper arguments.
shaper.list
Table signature for the standard shaper function.
cols
The names of the input columns.
file
CRAN package name.
