<p>Force the namespace @namespace_ to be loaded if it isn't already.
If @namespace_ is not loaded, this function will search for a
".typelib" file using the repository search path.  In addition, a
version @version of namespace may be specified.  If @version is
not specified, the latest will be used.</p>
