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 value 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  do  not 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_GlobalEvalObj  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 value  containing  additional
       information  (a  result  value or error message) that can be retrieved using Tcl_GetObjResult.  If you do
       not 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.
