Hi all,
I used to be able to do this:
 as.data.frame(DataFrame(), stringsAsFactors=TRUE)

now I get a warning:
Warning in as.data.frame(DataFrame(), stringsAsFactors = TRUE) :
  Arguments in '...' ignored

Do I have the guarantee nowadays that coercing a DataFrame to a data.frame does 
not cast characters to factors. I don't think that was always the case.


Yea, I cleaned that up. The idea is that the types in the DataFrame should be 
preserved in the data.frame.
