\title{
Converts Java object to a simple scalar if possible
}
\description{
\code{.jsimplify} attempts to convert Java objects that represent
simple scalars into corresponding scalar representation in R.
}
\usage{
.jsimplify(o, promote=FALSE)
}
\arguments{
\item{o}{arbitrary object}
\item{promote}{logical, if \code{TRUE} then an ambiguous conversion
where the native type value would map to \code{NA} (e.g., Java
\code{int} type with value -2147483648) will be taken
to represent an actual value and will be promoted to a larger type
that can represent the value (in case of \code{int} promoted to
\code{double}). If \code{FALSE} then such values are assumed to
represent \code{NA}s.}
}
\value{
Simple scalar or \code{o} unchanged.
}
\details{
If \code{o} is not a Java object reference, \code{o} is returned
as-is. If \code{o} is a reference to a scalar object (such as single
integer, number, string or boolean) then the value of that object is
returned as R vector of the corresponding type and length one.
This function is used by \code{\link{.jfield}} to simplify the results
of field access if required.
Currently there is no function inverse to this, the usual way to wrap
scalar values in Java references is to use \code{\link{.jnew}} as the
corresponding constructor.
