Returns the version counter for an axis, which is incremented when the axis is modified. This is useful for cache invalidation.

Usage

axis_version_counter(daf, axis)

Arguments

daf

A Daf object

axis

Name of the axis

Value

A character string representing the current counter value. Returned as a string rather than an R integer because the Julia-side counter is a UInt32 that can exceed R's signed-integer range.

Details

The version counter is incremented whenever the axis entries are modified. Compare counters with identical() or == on the strings.
