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_GlobalE-
valObj if the TCL_EVAL_GLOBAL bit is set in flags). It returns a com-
pletion 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_RecordAn-
dEvalObj 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.
