pkg::create

Construct an appropriate 'package ifneeded' command for a given package specification






::pkg::create -name packageName -version
    packageVersion ?-load filespec? ... ?-source
    filespec? ...










::pkg::create is a utility procedure that is part of the
    standard Tcl library. It is used to create an appropriate package
    ifneeded command for a given package specification. It can be used to
    construct a pkgIndex.tcl file for use with the package
    mechanism.








The parameters supported are:



  

  
This parameter specifies the name of the package. It is required.

  

  
This parameter specifies the version of the package. It is required.

  

  
This parameter specifies a binary library that must be loaded with the
      load command. filespec is a list with two elements. The
      first element is the name of the file to load. The second, optional
      element is a list of commands supplied by loading that file. If the list
      of procedures is empty or omitted, ::pkg::create will set up the
      library for direct loading (see pkg_mkIndex). Any number of
      -load parameters may be specified.

  

  
This parameter is similar to the -load parameter, except that it
      specifies a Tcl library that must be loaded with the source
      command. Any number of -source parameters may be specified.




At least one -load or -source parameter must be
    given.
