Tcl_RecordAndEvalObj(3TCL)				      Tcl Library Procedures					Tcl_RecordAndEvalObj(3TCL)

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME

       Tcl_RecordAndEvalObj - save command on history list before evaluating

SYNOPSIS

       #include <tcl.h>

       int
       Tcl_RecordAndEvalObj(interp, cmdPtr, flags)

ARGUMENTS

       Tcl_Interp   *interp    (in)	 Tcl interpreter in which to evaluate command.

       Tcl_Obj	    *cmdPtr    (in)	 Points to a Tcl object containing a 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 don't evaluate it.
					 TCL_EVAL_GLOBAL means evaluate the command at global level instead of the current stack level.
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       Tcl_RecordAndEvalObj is invoked to record a command as an event on the history list and then execute it using Tcl_EvalObjEx (or Tcl_Global-
       EvalObj	if  the  TCL_EVAL_GLOBAL  bit is set in flags).  It returns a completion code such as TCL_OK just like Tcl_EvalObjEx, as well as a
       result object containing additional information (a result value or error message) that can be retrieved	using  Tcl_GetObjResult.   If  you
       don't  want  the  command  recorded  on	the  history  list then you should invoke Tcl_EvalObjEx instead of Tcl_RecordAndEvalObj.  Normally
       Tcl_RecordAndEvalObj 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.

NAME

       Tcl_RecordAndEval - save command on history list before evaluating

SYNOPSIS

       #include <tcl.h>

       int
       Tcl_RecordAndEval(interp, cmd, flags)

ARGUMENTS

       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.
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       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_RecordAn-
       dEval.	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.
