[Rock-dev] Create new instances of typelib classes in ruby

[Christian Rauch]

Hi,

for comparing values coming from a Syskit::OutputReader with other 
static values given by a ruby object, I need to get the type returned by 
the reader.
If I call #.port.type I get e.g:
#<Typelib::CompoundType: /base/samples/RigidBodyState_m>

Where do I find these CompoundTypes if I want to create my own objects 
in ruby (something like 
Typelib::CompoundType::Base::Samples::RigidBodyState.new())? This also 
applies if I want to give a sample to a writer without getting the 
object from #new_sample.

Kind regards,
Christian
