How to identify the type of a definition?

I am in the process of condensing/blackBoxing my definitions using C#, and some things I need to know are the types (i.e. int, double, list, trees) of the input and outputs of said definitions.

Is there a place where I can get the source code of the definitions? Or perhaps a place where I can know this information?

Thank you.

Hi Jacky,

can you please explain exactly what you are trying to do and what is the goal?
Are you trying to make a C# replacement for some Python code? Do you know about clr.ComplileModules()?

Thanks,

Giulio

Oh, I see. You are trying to re-code Grasshopper components.

That's fine, absolutely, it will just take some time. The type are usually int, string, double, and several other RhinoCommon types. There is no Java in Grasshopper, but C#, as you noticed.

It's possible to also use the OpenNurbs version of RhinoCommon, to get to use some of these types.

If you have some more specific question, I'll try to help with it,

Thanks
