netNew: Instanciate a .Net object

In fdieulle/sharper: R interoperability with .Net Core and .Net Framework

Description

Instanciate a .Net object from its type name.

Usage

netNew(typeName, ...)

Arguments

typeName	The .Net full name type
...	.Net Constructor arguments.

Details

The typeName should respect the full type name convention: Namespace.TypeName Ellipses ... has to keep the .net constructor arguments order, the named arguments are not supported yet. If there is many constructors defined for the given .Net type, a score selection is computed from your arguments orders and types to choose the best one. We consider as a higher priority single value compare to collection of values.

Value

Returns a converted .Net instance if a converter is defined, an external pointer otherwise.

Examples

## Not run:

x <- netNew("RDotNet.AssemblyTest.OneCtorData", 21L)
