setOldClass("survreg")
##' An S4 class containing the function required
##' to simulate conditional survival times
##' @slot type A character string describing the distribution used
##' for example "Weibull"
##' @slot generateParameterFunction A function with a single parameter Nsim which returns
##' a matrix with Nsim rows and columns Id(=1:Nsim) and the specific parameters needed by
##' conditionalFunction below. In the Weibull case these are the specific rate and shape
##' parameters used for each simulation
##' @slot conditionalFunction A function with the following arguments t.conditional, params, HR.
##' t.conditional is a vector of current survival times, params is a row of the matrix returned
##' by generateParameterFunction and HR is a vector of 1s for subjects in control arm and the hazard ratio
##' for subjects in the active arm (if HR argument to simulate is NULL then this is a vector of 1s). The function
##' then returns a vector of event times.
##' @slot parameters A list of parameters used for the simulation. For the Weibull this is
##' rate, shape and sigma (the uncertainty matrix of the parameters - specifically the covariance matrix from survreg)
