Behavior of s3_get_method with all.equal about sloop

[Zedseayou]

I think you're calling it wrong; s3_get_method takes a function name as string or symbol, specifically the full method name. This is different from s3_dispatch, which may cause the confusion. Here's an example:

library(sloop)
s3_methods_generic("all.equal")
#> # A tibble: 11 x 4
#>    generic   class       visible source
#>    <chr>     <chr>       <lgl>   <chr> 
#>  1 all.equal character   TRUE    base  
#>  2 all.equal default     TRUE    base  
#>  3 all.equal environment TRUE    base  
#>  4 all.equal envRefClass TRUE    base  
#>  5 all.equal factor      TRUE    base  
#>  6 all.equal formula     TRUE    base  
#>  7 all.equal language    TRUE    base  
#>  8 all.equal list        TRUE    base  
#>  9 all.equal numeric     TRUE    base  
#> 10 all.equal POSIXt      TRUE    base  
#> 11 all.equal raw         TRUE    base
s3_get_method(all.equal.numeric)
#> function (target, current, tolerance = sqrt(.Machine$double.eps), 
#>     scale = NULL, countEQ = FALSE, formatFUN = function(err, 
#>         what) format(err), ..., check.attributes = TRUE) 
#> {
#>     if (!is.numeric(tolerance)) 
#>         stop("'tolerance' should be numeric")
#>     if (!is.numeric(scale) && !is.null(scale)) 
#>         stop("'scale' should be numeric or NULL")
#>     if (!is.logical(check.attributes)) 
#>         stop(gettextf("'%s' must be logical", "check.attributes"),

#>         msg <- c(msg, paste0(if (cplx) "Complex" else "Numeric",
