- File embedded/md/tcllib/files/modules/interp/tcllib_interp.md — part of check-in [67c2cce9ef] at 2019-03-22 07:17:07 on branch doc-fixup-and-markdown — More polishing to bring the embedded markdown documentation nearer to par with HTML. Only the styling HTML had is missing, and that is a limit of MD itself. - Markdown: Added support for engine parameter 'header'. Needed for navbar from dtplite. Added missing copyright information (see also HTML). Added character protection to engine, to mark the special command characters. Special characters in the input are quoted at the end, to prevent them from being seen as special by markdown. This required support in the general text engine too, when handling indents. It must not count the protection character (\1). - dtplite: Use HTML entity for the vertical bar in the navbar. This prevents misidentification as special character in the markdown engine, while keeping it usable for the HTML engine. - Removed HTML stylesheet for fossil integration. Unused now with the embedded docs using markdown and fossil doing the render. - Regenerated embedded docs, inserting copyright comment, and navbar. (user: aku size: 4082) [more...]

NAME
interp - Interp creation and aliasing
Table Of Contents
SYNOPSIS
package require Tcl 8.3
package require interp ?0.1.2?
::interp::createEmpty ?path?
::interp::snitLink path methodlist
::interp::snitDictLink path methoddict
DESCRIPTION
This package provides a number of commands for the convenient creation of Tcl interpreters for highly restricted execution.
API
-
This commands creates an empty Tcl interpreter and returns it name. Empty means that the new interpreter has neither namespaces, nor any commands. It is useful only for the creation of aliases.
If a path is specified then it is taken as the name of the new interpreter.
::interp::snitLink path methodlist
This command assumes that it was called from within a method of a snit object, and that the command mymethod is available.
It extends the interpreter specified by path with aliases for all methods found in the methodlist, with the alias directing execution to the same-named method of the snit object invoking this command. Each element of methodlist is actually interpreted as a command prefix, with the first word of each prefix the name of the method to link to.
The result of the command is the empty string.
::interp::snitDictLink path methoddict
This command behaves like ::interp::snitLink, except that it takes a dictionary mapping from commands to methods as its input, and not a list of methods. Like for ::interp::snitLink the method references are actually command prefixes. This command allows the creation of more complex command-method mappings than ::interp::snitLink.
The result of the command is the empty string.
Bugs, Ideas, Feedback
This document, and the package it describes, will undoubtedly contain bugs and other problems. Please report such in the category interp of the Tcllib Trackers. Please also report any ideas for enhancements you may have for either package and/or documentation.
When proposing code changes, please provide unified diffs, i.e the output of diff -u.
Note further that attachments are strongly preferred over inlined patches. Attachments can be made by going to the Edit form of the ticket immediately after its creation, and then using the left-most button in the secondary navigation bar.
