## Namespace Reflection Support

### Description

Internal functions to support reflection on namespace objects.

### Usage

    getExportedValue(ns, name)
    getNamespace(name)
    getNamespaceExports(ns)
    getNamespaceImports(ns)
    getNamespaceName(ns)
    getNamespaceUsers(ns)
    getNamespaceVersion(ns)

### Arguments

`ns` | string or namespace object.
`name` | string or name.

### Details

`getExportedValue` returns the value of the exported variable `name` in namespace `ns`.

`getNamespace` returns the environment representing the name space `name`. The namespace is loaded if necessary.

`getNamespaceExports` returns a character vector of the names exported by `ns`.

`getNamespaceImports` returns a representation of the imports used by namespace `ns`. This representation is experimental and subject to change.

`getNamespaceName` and `getNamespaceVersion` return the name and version of the namespace `ns`.
