The Tcl extension module gives access to the Tcl library with functionality and
interface similar to the C functions of Tcl. In other words, you can:
-create Tcl interpreters
- The Tcl interpreters so created are Perl objects whose destructors
- delete the interpreters cleanly when appropriate.
-
-execute Tcl code in an interpreter
- The code can come from strings, files or Perl filehandles.
-
-bind in new Tcl procedures
- The new procedures can be either C code (with addresses presumably
- obtained using dl_open and dl_find_symbol) or Perl subroutines (by name,
- reference or as anonymous subs). The (optional) deleteProc callback in
- the latter case is another perl subroutine which is called when the
- command is explicitly deleted by name or else when the destructor for
- the interpreter object is explicitly or implicitly called.
-
-Manipulate the result field of a Tcl interpreter
-
-Set and get values of variables in a Tcl interpreter
-
-Tie perl variables to variables in a Tcl interpreter
- The variables can be either scalars or hashes.
