tcllib 1.0.5 tcl::chan::memchan(3tcl)
Description
The tcl::chan::memchan package provides a command creating channels which live purely in memory. They
provide random-access, i.e. are seekable. This is equivalent to the memchan channels provided by the
package Memchan, except that this is written in pure Tcl, not C. On the other hand, Memchan is usable
with Tcl 8.4 and before, whereas this package requires Tcl 8.5 or higher, and TclOO.
Packages related to this are tcl::chan::string and tcl::chan::variable.
The internal TclOO class implementing the channel handler is a sub-class of the tcl::chan::events
framework.
