Tcl_StaticPackage(3) Tcl Library Procedures Tcl_StaticPackage(3)
NAME
Tcl_StaticPackage - make a statically linked package available via the
'load' command
SYNOPSIS
#include <tcl.h>
Tcl_StaticPackage(interp, pkgName, initProc, safeInitProc)
ARGUMENTS
If not NULL, points to an interpreter into which the package has
already been loaded (i.e., the caller has already invoked the appropri-
ate initialization procedure). NULL means the package has not yet been
incorporated into any interpreter. Name of the package; should be
properly capitalized (first letter upper-case, all others lower-case).
Procedure to invoke to incorporate this package into a trusted inter-
preter. Procedure to call to incorporate this package into a safe
interpreter (one that will execute untrusted scripts). NULL means the
package cannot be used in safe interpreters.
DESCRIPTION
This procedure may be invoked to announce that a package has been
linked statically with a Tcl application and, optionally, that it has
already been loaded into an interpreter. Once Tcl_StaticPackage has
been invoked for a package, it may be loaded into interpreters using
the load command. Tcl_StaticPackage is normally invoked only by the
Tcl_AppInit procedure for the application, not by packages for them-
selves (Tcl_StaticPackage should only be invoked for statically loaded
packages, and code in the package itself should not need to know
whether the package is dynamically or statically loaded).
When the load command is used later to load the package into an inter-
preter, one of initProc and safeInitProc will be invoked, depending on
whether the target interpreter is safe or not. initProc and safeInit-
Proc must both match the following prototype: typedef int Tcl_Pack-
ageInitProc(Tcl_Interp *interp); The interp argument identifies the
interpreter in which the package is to be loaded. The initialization
procedure must return TCL_OK or TCL_ERROR to indicate whether or not it
completed successfully; in the event of an error it should set the
interpreter's result to point to an error message. The result or error
from the initialization procedure will be returned as the result of the
load command that caused the initialization procedure to be invoked.
