Tcl_RecordAndEval(3) Tcl Library Procedures Tcl_RecordAndEval(3) 







Tcl_RecordAndEval - save command on history list before
  evaluating








#include <tcl.h>

int
Tcl_RecordAndEval(interp, cmd, flags)









  
Tcl_Interp *interp (in)

  
Tcl interpreter in which to evaluate command.

  
const 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 do not evaluate it. TCL_EVAL_GLOBAL means evaluate the
      command at global level instead of the current stack level.
    
    

    

  










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 the interpreter's result. If
    you do not 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.


Note that Tcl_RecordAndEval has been largely replaced by
    the object-based procedure Tcl_RecordAndEvalObj. That object-based
    procedure records and optionally executes a command held in a Tcl object
    instead of a string.
