title: Is there an easy way to get Type object from C# type name
body: <p>I want to create Type object from string value, e.g., "int", "long". I know I can create Type object from .net framework type name, like
  Type t = Type.GetType("System.Int32").</p>
  
  <p>Is there a built-in way to do same from C# type, "int", "long". </p>
