\title{Returns the Java type identifier for an R object}
\description{

  This takes the given object and returns a string that can be used in
  the This is of most use for primitivesso that one doesn't have to
  remember the different Java characters representing its primitive
  types.  This is currently not useful for non-primitive objects
  (e.g. lists) until \code{\link{javaSig}} is enhanced.

}
\usage{
RtoJavaSig(obj)
}
\arguments{

  \item{obj}{Any R object, but the result is currently only meaningful
	if this is a primitive.}

}
\details{

  This examines the class and/or mode of the specified object and then
  calls \code{\link{javaSig}} to find the name of the Java class
  corresponding to the name of the given object's type.

}
\value{

  A character vector of length 1 identifying the Java type (primitive or
  class) corresponding to the type of the input object.
