Function to format the output of a function returning StoX data (ModelData or ProcessData).

Source: R/Definitions.R

The function removes duplicated columns, orders the columns as per the order defined by getDataTypeDefinition, optionally removed undefined columns, orders the rows, and finally deletes any data.table keys from the output tables.

formatOutput(
  data,
  dataType,
  keep.all = TRUE,
  allow.missing = FALSE,
  primaryColumnOrder = NULL,
  secondaryColumnOrder = NULL,
  secondaryRowOrder = NULL,
  removeStoXKeys = FALSE
)
