R6 Class Representing a IncidenceDesign

Source: R/Classes.R

This class encapsulates the other R6 Class elements that define an IncidenceDesign

Details

The IncidenceDesign class encapsulates the following: - Cohort Definitions - Target Definitions - Outcome Definitions - Time At Risk Definitions - A List of Analyses - Concept Sets - Subgruops - Strata Settings Note, when serializing with a library such as jsonlite, first call toList() on the R6 class before calling jsonlite::toJSON(), or call toJSON directy on this class.
