The `Tcl_CreateInterp` function is dependent on the order defining `USE_TCL_STUBS` and inclusion of `tcl.h`. When users get this wrong the error is a null pointer exception (NPE) on the stubs table. For some TCLers/C users this takes a bit of digging to unravel the cause of the NPE. Therefore, I propose a new function `Tcl_CreateInterpWithStubs` which is always fully independent of `USE_TCL_STUBS`. This function will be part of the libtclstub87.a library. # Rationale Users that are creating interpreters are often getting errors because they are getting the `Tcl_CreateInterp` macro. This error is a runtime null pointer exception which several users find confusing. The user as to be astute enough to follow instructions and see that `USE_TCL_STUBS` will replace a C function call with a macro. By providing a plain function, the users can have a easier time embedded interperters and using stubs. ``` /usr/local/include/tcl8.6/tclDecls.h:#define Tcl_CreateInterp \ /usr/local/include/tcl8.6/tclDecls.h- (tclStubsPtr->tcl_CreateInterp) /* 94 */ ``` # Specification There will be a new function in `libtclstub??.a` that always performs interpreter initialization and stub table initialization. The signature is **Tcl\_CreateInterpWithStubs**(const char \*_version_, int _exact_). The _version_ and _exact_ parameters match `Tcl_InitStubs`. On error NULL is returned instead of a TCL interpreter. Without this pointer there is no way to obtain extended error codes, but the trade off is that it makes the API much easier to use. (That could be an error, someone could clarify that for me.) ## Example Implementation ``` /* must be compiled without stubs */ #undef USE_TCL_STUBS #include <tcl.h> Tcl_Interp * Tcl_CreateInterpWithStubs( const char *version, int exact) { Tcl_Interp *interp = Tcl_CreateInterp(); if (Tcl_Init(interp) == TCL_ERROR || Tcl_InitStubs(interp, version, exact) == NULL || Tcl_PkgRequire(interp, "Tcl", version, exact) == NULL) { return NULL; } return interp; } ``` # Implementation Please refer to the `tip-???` branch of the core Tcl repository. # Backwards Compatibility This is a new function in the TCL C API. # Copyright This document has been placed in the public domain. |
