Tcl_RecordAndEval(3) Tcl Library Procedures Tcl_RecordAndEval(3)_________________________________________________________________NAME
Tcl_RecordAndEval - save command on history list before
evaluating
SYNOPSIS
#include <tcl.h>
int
Tcl_RecordAndEval(interp, cmd, eval)
ARGUMENTS
Tcl_Interp *interp (in) Tcl interpreter in which
to evaluate command.
char *cmd (in) Command (or sequence of
commands) to execute.
int flags (in) An OR'ed combination of
flag bits. TCL_NO_EVAL
means record the command
but don't evaluate it.
TCL_EVAL_GLOBAL means
evaluate the command at
global level instead of
the current stack level.
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
Tcl_RecordAndEval is invoked to record a command as an
event on the history list and then execute it using
Tcl_Eval (or Tcl_GlobalEval if the TCL_EVAL_GLOBAL bit is
set in flags). It returns a completion code such as
TCL_OK just like Tcl_Eval and it leaves information in
interp->result. If you don't want the command recorded on
the history list then you should invoke Tcl_Eval instead
of Tcl_RecordAndEval. Normally Tcl_RecordAndEval is only
called with top-level commands typed by the user, since
the purpose of history is to allow the user to re-issue
recently-invoked commands. If the flags argument contains
the TCL_NO_EVAL bit then the command is recorded without
being evaluated.
