Tcl_OOInitStubs - initialize library access to TclOO functionality
Contents
Arguments
Tcl_Interp *interp (in) The Tcl interpreter that the TclOO API is integrated with and whose C
interface is going to be used.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Backward Compatibility Note
If you are linking against the Tcl 8.5 forward compatibility package for TclOO, only the stub-enabled
configuration is supported and you should also link against the TclOO independent stub library; that
library is an integrated part of the main Tcl stub library in Tcl 8.6.
Description
When an extension library is going to use the C interface exposed by TclOO, it should use Tcl_OOInitStubs
to initialize its access to that interface from within its *_Init (or *_SafeInit) function, passing in
the interp that was passed into that routine as context. If the result of calling Tcl_OOInitStubs is
NULL, the initialization failed and an error message will have been left in the interpreter's result.
Otherwise, the initialization succeeded and the TclOO API may thereafter be used; the version of the
TclOO API is returned.
When using this function, either the C #define symbol USE_TCLOO_STUBS should be defined and your library
code linked against the Tcl stub library, or that #define symbol should not be defined and your library
code linked against the Tcl main library directly.
