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_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 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.
