critcl::util - CriTcl - Utilities

::critcl::util::checkfunname ?label?
              This command checks the build-time environment for the existence  of  the  C  function  name.   It
              returns true on success, and false otherwise.

       ::critcl::util::defpathdefine ?value?
              This  command extends the specified configuration file path with a #define directive for the named
              define. If the value is not specified it will default to 1.

              The result of the command is an empty string.

              Note that the configuration file is maintained in the critcl::cache directory.

       ::critcl::util::undefpathdefine
              This command extends the specified configuration file path with an #undef directive for the  named
              define.

              The result of the command is an empty string.

              Note that the configuration file is maintained in the critcl::cache directory.

       ::critcl::util::locatelabelpaths ?cmd?
              This  command  checks  the build-time environment for the existence of a file in a set of possible
              paths.

              If the option cmd prefix is specified it will be called with the full path of a found file as  its
              only  argument  to  perform  further  checks.   A  return  value of false will reject the path and
              continue the search.

              The return value of the command is the found path, as listed  in  paths.  As  a  side  effect  the
              command will also print the found path, prefixed with the label, using critcl::msg.

              Failure to find the path is reported via critcl::error, and a possible empty string as the result,
              if  critcl::error  does  not  terminate  execution.   A  relative path is resolved relative to the
              directory containing the CriTclscript.

       Be  welcome  to the CRuntimeInTcl (short: CriTcl), a system for embedding and using C code from within
       Tcl [http://core.tcl-lang.org/tcl] scripts.

       This document is the reference manpage for the critcl::util package. This  package  provides  convenience
       commands  for  advanced  functionality  built  on  top  of  the  core.   Its intended audience are mainly
       developers wishing to write Tcl packages with embedded C code.

       This package resides in the Core Package Layer of CriTcl.
