.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
\fB::pkg::create\fR is a utility procedure that is part of the standard Tcl
|
||
|
library. It is used to create an appropriate \fBpackage ifneeded\fR
|
||
|
command for a given package specification. It can be used to construct a
|
||
|
\fBpkgIndex.tcl\fR file for use with the \fBpackage\fR mechanism.
|
||
|
|
||
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
||
|
The parameters supported are:
|
||
|
.TP
|
||
|
\fB\-name \fIpackageName\fR
|
||
|
This parameter specifies the name of the package. It is required.
|
||
|
.TP
|
||
|
\fB\-version \fIpackageVersion\fR
|
||
|
This parameter specifies the version of the package. It is required.
|
||
|
.TP
|
||
|
\fB\-load \fIfilespec\fR
|
||
|
This parameter specifies a binary library that must be loaded with the
|
||
|
\fBload\fR command. \fIfilespec\fR 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, \fB::pkg::create\fR will
|
||
|
set up the library for direct loading (see \fBpkg_mkIndex\fR). Any
|
||
|
number of \fB\-load\fR parameters may be specified.
|
||
|
.TP
|
||
|
\fB\-source \fIfilespec\fR
|
||
|
This parameter is similar to the \fB\-load\fR parameter, except that it
|
||
|
specifies a Tcl library that must be loaded with the
|
||
|
\fBsource\fR command. Any number of \fB\-source\fR parameters may be
|
||
|
specified.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
At least one \fB\-load\fR or \fB\-source\fR parameter must be given.
