I don't think so -- you want to use saveRDS and readRDS if you want to do that.
However, if you are given someone else's .RData and need to avoid a
name collision, this might work.
loadOneName <- function(objName, file, envir = parent.frame(),
assign.on.exit = TRUE) {
tempEnv <- new.env()
load(file, envir = tempEnv)
stopifnot(objName %in% ls(tempEnv))
if(assign.on.exit) {
assign(objName, tempEnv[[objName]], envir = envir)
return(invisible(tempEnv[[objName]]))
}
tempEnv[[objName]]
}
Note that's not been thoroughly tested but it seems decent...
