NAME

       itcl_info - query info regarding classes and objects (obsolete)

SYNOPSIS

       itcl_info classes ?pattern?
       itcl_info objects ?pattern? ?-class className? ?-isa className?

DESCRIPTION

       This  command is considered obsolete, but is retained for backward-compatibility with earlier versions of [incr Tcl].  It has been replaced
       by the "find classes" and "find objects" commands, which should be used for any new development.

       The following commands are available in the global namespace to query information about classes and objects that have been created.

       itcl_info classes ?pattern?
	      Returns a list of classes available in the current namespace context.  If a class belongs to the current namespace context, its sim-
	      ple name is reported; otherwise, if a class is imported from another namespace, its fully-qualified name is reported.

	      If  the  optional pattern is specified, then the reported names are compared using the rules of the "string match" command, and only
	      matching names are reported.

       itcl_info objects ?pattern? ?-class className? ?-isa className?
	      Returns a list of objects available in the current namespace context.  If an object belongs to the current  namespace  context,  its
	      simple name is reported; otherwise, if an object is imported from another namespace, its fully-qualified access command is reported.

	      If  the  optional pattern is specified, then the reported names are compared using the rules of the "string match" command, and only
	      matching names are reported.  If the optional "-class" parameter is specified, this list is restricted to  objects  whose  most-spe-
	      cific  class  is	className.   If  the optional "-isa" parameter is specified, this list is further restricted to objects having the
	      given className anywhere in their heritage.
