[BioC] Detection calls with "beadarray"

[Cei Abreu-Goodger]

Hello all,

I've just been trying to add detection calls to an 
"ExpressionSetIllumina" created with "beadarray". I couldn't find this 
mentioned in the vignettes, but found the function "calculateDetection" 
lying around.

Would this be the recommended way of using it? (near-working example, 
except that since the data contains no control-probes the actual 
detection values are left as NaN)

library(beadarray)
data(BSData)
BSData <- setAnnotation(BSData,"Humanv1")
Detection(BSData) <- calculateDetection(BSData)
rownames(Detection(BSData)) <- featureNames(BSData)
colnames(Detection(BSData)) <- sampleNames(BSData)


Many thanks!

Cei
