For 2023 (and 2024 ...) - we are now fully retired from IT training.
We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk.

Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active!

I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here))
Executing a Tcl script from within a Tcl dialog

Posted by rpmorrow (rpmorrow), 30 July 2008
Hi,

I am wanting to allow Tcl Commands to be run from within my Tcl program. For example if a command is typet into a text entry field, it should be executed. I also want to be able to load a file and execute the whole thing.

I've seen mantions of Tcl_Eval but I can't seem to get anything to work, does anyone have a simple example I can see that wil execute commands stored in $commandString or $fileHandle for example.

Cheers, Rich

Just use ....

eval $commandString

Cheers
