Description
Tries to find the first object matching the search parameters in memory. This will handle fully qualified paths of the form /path/packagename.object:subobject and resolve references for you. If multiple objects share the same name the returned object is random and not based on its time of creation unless otherwise specified in Options (see EFindFirstObjectOptions::NativeFirst) This function is slow and should not be used in performance critical situations.
