hi, I made a mistake, accidentally specifying the class itself as inherit, which resulted in an infinite loop. I was surprised to see that is actually even allowed for the class definition:
> MyClass=R6::R6Class(inherit=MyClass)
I actually got no output (success) from the above line of code.
I would have expected/liked an error when running the above code, something like below:
> R6::R6Class(inherit=Undefined)$new()
Error in eval(inherit, parent_env, NULL) : object 'Undefined' not found
However I only got an error message later, shown below
It was easy how to fix this issue, but it would have been even more obvious/user friendly if the error happens earlier (on R6Class definition), would that be possible please?
Thanks
