R的省略号忽略了传递的参数

Question

I wrote a simple function that takes a default argument and that also makes use of the ellipsis ( ... ):

myFun <- function(resize = NULL, ...) {
    dots <- list(...)
    str(dots)
}

However, when I try to pass an argument that is similar to the default argument, it is not recognized:

> myFun(res = 1)
 list()
> myFun(resi = 2)
 list()

However, if I use a different name it works fine:

> myFun(abc = 2)
List of 1
 $ abc: num 2

> myFun(resize = 3, res = 1)
List of 1
 $ res: num 1

Is this behavior intended? If so, is there a proper way to deal with this issue (besides renaming arguments)?

This is intended behaviour, as stated in the R language definition. Function arguments are matched partially.
